Realistically, if you live in a large city, you really have nothing to complain about. Farmers, people in rural areas actually do have a case to make in this respect.

From my experience, guys who can't meet girls (or the opposite) still complain no matter what city they're in, no matter how stacked the odds are for them. I think that straight guys should consider themselves lucky -- imagine if you were gay and could only date 4% of the population. Not only that, but gay guys can't even tell who else they could potentially date and who would be offended by them asking!

Uh... the same is true for straight guys (and for women). The odds might be better, but not every woman wants to date a man, and not every woman (regardless of orientation) is open to being hit on at a particular moment.

The odds are much better but I think the far more significant difference is that a man asking a woman is socially accepted whereas a man asking a man is not (in most places).
