I'm a lesbian- I went to a college with about 800 undergrads (all women), and there were maybe 3 other gay women. Three. Four of us out of 800: that's a shortage. And I still managed to date. Just because there's a shortage of people of whatever gender/sexuality/availability/whatever at a school does NOT mean there's a similar shortage in the surrounding area. I went on a couple dates with a girl from another school in the area and I had a short relationship with someone I met at a summer program. Not to mention the fact that most people I know who are single aren't eating Haagen Dazs and crying over The Notebook- they're out living their lives and if someone comes along, great, if not, they're still happy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180310412284750174.post-49798439781879167662012-02-12T10:54:26.371-08:002012-02-12T10:54:26.371-08:00They forget to add that a lot more college aged ma...They forget to add that a lot more college aged males go in the military than females. I had a lot more 18-24 year old males than I did females in my platoon. Maybe that's why there's more females at that university? Or maybe the guys just went somewhere else. Who knows. And OMG! You can't be single of v-day! Oh no, there must be something wrong with you then if you're single. LMAO!<br />And you're so correct. Everyone's so into the internet and keeping up to date with people that they don't bother getting out of their comfort zone. Most people stay close to home. Yea, they did that way back when too. But I didn't find my husband until I went to school half-way across the country. And I found him because this was when facebook was JUST starting so I wasn't so into being online 24/7 and got out and did things. I didn't need a website to match me up with him either.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696475326409494515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180310412284750174.post-48797986923568306002012-02-12T10:33:17.697-08:002012-02-12T10:33:17.697-08:00Coming from a college that was 70-30 women-men, I ...Coming from a college that was 70-30 women-men, I can promise you that anything under that ratio is NOT a shortage. Also, I never found myself staring down a George Clooney movie over a half eaten pizza on Valentine's day... instead, we dressed up the statue of our mascot with a boa and condoms. We were pretty classy.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05725377560719527793noreply@blogger.com
