Recent study says Brooklyn women are the pickiest in the country.

Image via msbusiness.comHey. Jim here. You're favorite Fipster. Or at least the one you are currently reading. I'm single and always looking to …quietly read web posts alone in my room forever until I'm dead. So I keep my ear pretty close to the ground for dating articles. Looking for tips, inspiration, courage. Basically anything that'll convince me to leave my Netflix and fleshlight alone for long enough talk to a real live human girl...who's not on the other end of one of those hotlines you're supposed to jerk off to.

Recently I read something that did the complete opposite of that. Brooklyn women, allegedly, are statistically the pickiest in the country. Is that true though, or are Brooklyn men just cowardly lions? Well, they've got the beards for it. Full confession: My approach is weak. I only make eye contact with women as my subway pulls away and they are left waiting on the platform. I really think that’s just me though. I’m not ready to paint every guy as timid or every girl as too selective based on data from a Facebook dating app that has 70 million users. Facebook, as of their most recent quarterly report, has 1.15 billion people registered. That's only 6% of users. That’s closer to a margin for error than conclusive evidence.

So what has been your experience? Are Brooklyn women too selective? Do Brooklyn men have no game? Are both true and we’re doomed to be bred out of existence by the other boroughs? Their borders swelling because they are so much better at fucking than us. Until Brooklyn is shrunk down to the size of a tiny star in the night. Twinkling one last time before it winks out of the galaxy. The only evidence of hipsters left behind being Girls and the fantastic Bored to Death series on HBO Go.
