As if we needed any confirmation, it's official - San Jose officially equals Man Jose. The Census Bureau recently released it's numbers showing that there are 117 men for every 100 women in San Jose amongst the ages of 20 to 44 years old (thanks NBC Bay Area). The first thing that struck me was that the number didn't sound right. Now my math is the equivalent of a low level 5th grader, but if there were only 17 more males than females I'd be a happy camper.
Sure, there may be only 17 more, but I would say with all seriousness, that for every 100 guys that go out in San Jose, only 25 girls are doing the same. Of those 25 girls, 2 are probably good looking. The rest are made up of divorcees with 3 kids, fanatical fast-food lovers that don't work out and think they're J-Lo, unemployed, undocumented immigrants, and 17 year olds with fake ids.
To give you context, the U.S. ratio is 97 males to 100 females. Take a look at the chart below (I do my research when it comes to serious matters like these) - the more green it is, the more men there are:
Now I like my green in the form of money, trees, grass, and Kool-Aid, but Men is where I draw the line! For you women, that doesn't necessarily mean good news for you. Remember, this is Silicon Valley, home of the engineers, programmers, and undocumented aliens..... at the very least, you'll find a very hard worker, but quite possibly a socially inept one. If they would only build a marketing or PR firm out here - then we could even this ratio out. Those places are like gold mines!
FYI: It doesn't get any better on the outskirts of Man Jose. Mountain View has 125 males to 100 females! I blame this on Google... Hire some more females for Pete's sake! If you truly want your employees to be happy, free food, oil changes, haircuts, workout facilities, stock options, and transportation will only cut it for so long. Who wants that stuff anyway? You have a civic duty to your community or else I will boycott one of your products! Well, not gmail... I like that one. Google maps is pretty good too. And well, I'm using Blogger right now. And that search engine is money.... Hmmm.... well, I will hold my breath for 15 seconds! And if I ever meet your employees, like Charlotte, I will tell them: "I curse the day you were born!"

Maybe thats why most parties become sausage fests
I was lucky to accompany a great group of bachelorettes one night to the Voodoo lounge.
That was an awesome time. But I know I for sure wouldn't have had fun without this massive group of 20 beautiful ladies.

Yes, bringing your own ladies is always the way to go.
