0 reasons why San Francisco sucks

I noticed Gio's post in page 1 of the thread and will repost it here. Rings true 6 years later.
To the guys who are being overly negative (minus Veloce): Have you actually lived in SF/Bay Area? Or have you only visited for a weekend, or worse, never actually even been there?
I lived in the Bay Area for several years and visit out there regularly. Of course there are plenty of downsides in SF. My 3 biggest, in order: Rent is expensive as shit (easily the biggest issue for me), opportunities for interacting with really hot women are low (and generally is not a great city for game), and there are tons of homeless people. I also never particularly vibed with the culture of the city. The downsides outweighed the upsides for me personally and I chose not to live there.
However, trying to paint the entire city as a flaming pile of shit full of blue-haired feminists is misleading. Try going to some bars in the Marina District on a Saturday night. It'll be a scene that could be taken out of parts of NYC or Atlanta - cute white girls, graduated frat bros, and the dance floor blasting "Mo Bamba". I'll admit that some of the worst blowouts in my life have been in SF, but I can't recall a single time where I got rejected with pure feminist trope, or heard the words "toxic masculinity" mentioned to me at a bar.
As with many cities, the scene varies wildly between neighborhoods. Blue-haired feminists don't hang out at the spots I go to and nobody on this forum should hang out in places like that.
I really think people should visit a city for at least several days before drawing strong conclusions about it. Or, at least clarify whether they've actually visited, or are just regurgitating information that they read online.

I didn't read the article. I avoid complainers and instead study guys who get results.
Online complainers are almost always beta.
Improve your game + fix your logistics, or try another city.
Blaming others and avoiding personal responsibility is what pussies do.
There are many cities in the world. I hope this guy finds his pussy paradise.
