Chicken wing restaurants? Ugh.

And what's a "ranking in terms of sports" based on? Viewership?

That survey is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard of. Everyone in the world is now dumber for it having been been put together.

Uniting this thread with a previous, I suggest Fucking Butte ain't far off.

I wonder if cocktail bars count as "manly kryptonite." Because if the flourishing Boston cocktail scene helps put us in the #2 spot on that list, well, I can only hope that we make #1 by next year.

Western/cowboy apparel stores? As a resident of the state with the #2 manliest city (down just one from the top spot in the previous rankings), I will attest that the only people who shop in those are college-aged women and transplanted Mexicans. Better indicators of geographic manliness: concentration of leather bars, square feet of shelf space devoted to Lava soap, per capita sales of glass eyes and prosthetic limbs, and the percentage of a pig's body considered edible.

Not that there's anything unmanly about transplanted Mexicans.

I wish to know the rankings of the nation's womanliest cities. I'm at a loss, though, to decide how this should be determined, and which brand should be understanding of our need to know: it is not enough that they simply be least manly.

Straight to the chase, eh, Stormcrow? I was thinking more of, say, Dove bars (which someone in another thread said he'd declined, because), or that line of skin care products with the ad campaign featuring older women.

Not sure how drinking Merlot for 7 days straight factors in: more womanly than eating salted snack food, though, right?.

If memory serves, there have been and are regular surveys and magazine articles purporting to identify the "best" cities for women, taking as criteria matters as arbitrary and diverse as humidity and ob-gyns per capita.

Humidity is either good for your complexion, or makes your hair frizzy, or makes your hair flat, or makes your skin oily so you break out. Women have a complex relationship to humidity.

seconded. what's with the piling on of the icing? half the fucking cupcake is icing anymore. and wings, so often disappointing. homemade is best, for when watching football gets serious.

You need a bunch of icing to cut the heat of the wings.
