He's not wrong. You don't go to the lesbian capital of the USA if you're looking for heterosexual dating prospects.



Please read the original comment the professor made. He’s not talking like the women are just unavailable. He’s talking that they’re categorically bad. (FWIW I don’t believe lesbians are bad lol)


I read it. I disagree with your portrayal of his statement.


Wait how do you read that the advise to get out due to “the differences in the women” outside of the area vs the women in the area as not saying the women in the Bay Area are not suitable life partners?


It's a bad idea to pursue lesbian women if you want a heterosexual life partner. This should not be a hard thing to understand. Do you agree that lesbian women are different from straight women?


He didn’t say they were lesbians. He said their behavior is shocking! Lesbians aren’t shocking lol. They’re very normal.


Statistics say that San Francisco is the LGBTQ capital of the world. They're very normal, but they're not what most straight men are looking for in a relationship. As I said before, this is not hard to understand.


The LGBTQ+ community in SF skews Gay and Trans, not Lesbian.

That said, none of this has ANY bearing on his clearly misogynistic statements


> clearly misogynistic

What's clear is that you're not treating the man's actual words with any sort of grace or understanding. It's not sporting and it's against HN's guidelines. Assume good faith.

I meant the professor, too.


He didn’t mention lesbians though??


"difference of behavior due to the competition"

he never said there were not good life partner, only that they were INACECSSIBLE. he was literally answering to basically an (literal) incel complaining to not have luck with women


I agree with the other commenters that you're reading your own beliefs into his statement. Think of what the prof said as more like a anthropologist analyzing human behavior through the lens of animal behavior.
