I feel like a thread like this is long overdue but it would be immensely helpful if we had a list of what guys should keep an eye out for to determine if a place is good for love tourists. Roosh does a good job with addressing these, but not everyone is mindful of these crucial factors when reporting their experiences. Such guidelines, I think, should make for better data sheets.
Here are my suggestions for "Indicators of Ease." Think of them as IOIs, to borrow the term. Some are intuitive (male-female ratio at night venues), others are less so.
High concentration of young girls in their 20's: I noticed college towns are the most target rich places. While big cities offer a lot of targets too compared to small ones, the vibe and energy aren't as warm or receptive as when you have a community of enthusiastic girls who are i the midst of enjoying freedom from living with their parents for the first time.
High percentage of pretty girls: When good looks aren't so scarce, it keeps their egos from getting out of control. You want girls to feel flattered that you find them attractive, not that they're the best in show.
Degree of foreigner infiltration: I observed that generally whenever a venue has a lot of foreign guys, it's a bad sign. Girls at these places tend to have more attitude and you're exotic factor is almost nil.
Girls with busted dudes: Places where the girls date down means the market is skewed in your favor.
Cordial Rejections: If you're getting friendly reactions instead of cold shutdowns, it's a good sign that there are a lot of receptive girls.
Curious eye contact: It's even better if locking eyes is followed up by a flirtatious smile. If you're in a place where you're getting a ton of warm looks, it means the girls are dying to be opened.
"out to hookup" behavior at clubs/bars: These are things like girls who aren't surrounded by groups and stay within their cliques. The places that give me that warm and fuzzy feeling are when I see girls dancing in a steamy way with guys (not just with each other), get drunk, grind, a lot of making out with guys they didn't come there with. Basically, they're out to have fun and meet new dudes.
Poshness of venue: Upscale, fancy places tend to the have the bitchiest, stuck up girls. The less pretentious, the better.
Girls interested in new, different places It's funny, but when girls are very proud of where they live, it's not something you want to hear. Even if they generally like where they are, it's usually more helpful when they have some degree of dissatisfaction about it.
Of course, every place is different so it's a case by case basis. Roosh mentioned instances where place with a ton foreigners can be a good thing, so this exception should be noted as well when reporting experiences. If there's something you guys disagree on or have any more suggestions, feel free to add. Also I'm wondering what cities would you nominate as best fitting such IOE criteria. Would love to hear your own observations .
