in an effort to help both sides of this divide, I brainstormed up a list of all the places my straight single guy friends and I spend time. Updated 12 years ago, June 20, 2013. Recently, I wrote a piece about how I’ve been asking straight men where they find single women. I collected a number of answers, some were good and some were not so good. After it was published a few women contacted me and asked if I knew where single straight men tend to hangout. Since I am one and a number of my friends are as well, I did a bit of reverse engineering and considered where we spend our time. So… in an effort to help both sides of this divide, I brainstormed up a list of all the places my straight single guy friends and I spend time. This is by no means an exhaustive list, some of the answers might not fit your regional location quite as well, but I think you can use it to extrapolate some similar locations in your home environment. In no particular order, here are ten places I’d tell any female friend to look if she wanted to meet single straight men. 1. Go to shows (live music, art openings, readings, book signings) I’d say the majority of my friends are musicians, artists, writers, filmmakers, small business owners, dudes who work in creative fields in various capacities, which means they’re often very busy with their work/passion. But all of us like to go out. And we tend to go out in either small groups or in pairs. We go to lots of live music and art openings, Artwalk events, and readings. I’m not exactly shy, but I don’t go out looking to chat up women, and neither do I see that many women going around chatting up guys. Which means, if there’s any hope we’re ever gonna find each other, we should all occasionally look up from our iPhones, take that leap of faith and talk to the attractive folks near us, when and if they happen to smile when we make eye contact. What do any of us have to lose? Right? …And if you’re a smoker, it’s like super-easy for you because you guys are huddled together outside anyway. Since you’re likely to die sooner, I’d say get on it! I’m just kidding, smokers. But for everyone, get out there and see some live music, take in some art, attend a reading and promise yourself you’ll talk and flirt with at least one cute stranger. 2. The gym (…this is similar to the answer about women & yoga studios) I don’t have a gym membership, so I have no idea what it’s like in those sweaty rooms where people lift metal and ride stationary bikes and climb pretend hills and row boats that don’t go anywhere. I do push-ups and sit-ups and pull-ups at home. I’m really not qualified to say much about gyms. But I live in L.A. which means a number of my friends and neighbors go to the gym like old Italian ladies in New Jersey go to church. And from what they tell me there’s a serious (and somewhat douchey) social scene at the gym. If you have a gym membership, and you see a guy who isn’t an obvious tool, maybe start a slow romance of smiles and perhaps one day when you’re not actually in that main room that I always imagine smells of ball sweat and old socks, and you bump into him in the parking lot, ask him about some upcoming event you’re excited about and see if he wants to go. It’s straightforward and it’s clear. Most guys will be flattered and likely to say, “Sure, sounds cool.†3. Car shows, motorcycle events, professional sports. I desperately want to get a motorcycle. Sadly, it doesn’t really fit my lifestyle at the moment. But I still go to most bike events and old car shows I hear about. If you have any love for cars, or dream of riding on your boyfriend’s motorcycle, or if you have your own bike and are looking for someone to ride with, I can tell you the male-to-female ratio at these events has gotta be something like 17-to-1. At least. Another place my friends and I go is to see pro sports. Doesn’t matter if it’s soccer, basketball, or baseball, (L.A. doesn’t have football, but we’d go if they did) these are also place where the guy-to-gal ratio is skewed high to the guy side. If you have fond memories of going to see sports when you were young, or if you were a jock, or if you just like to see guys run around, pro sports, like bike events and car shows is another great gathering ground for single men. And you can get drunk in public in the daytime and no one rolls their eyes, which is worth the price of admission alone. Daytime drinking is no longer a popular past-time in our culture for reasons that elude me. 4. Beaches, skate-parks, rock-walls. I spend a lot of time at the beach because I don’t skateboard as much as I used to, and I’ll say it plain, I never spend any time rock-climbing, but I have friends who are instructors and some of them are pretty hot. I’m just saying. At least that’s what my sister tells me. So if you want one of those active sports kinda guys, I’d go to where they do their sport. Doesn’t matter if you don’t surf, skate or climb. That won’t be a deal-breaker for the guys. And like the bike events, there are far more dudes at all those places than there are gals. So the odds are in your favor and the attention would be yours to do with what you will. Maybe wander down to a climbing center and just talk about how you like camping, that should be close enough to make conversation. Or head to the beach for a surfing event if you like sun and sand, and say hello to any guy you think is cute enough to deserve your attention. Trust me, guys are ALWAYS surprised and USUALLY flattered when a girl makes the first move.
