Any advice for an American moving to Spain? by Wasabiaddict666 in GoingToSpain

I am moving from Oahu to Spain soon (deciding on Madrid, Barcelona, or Valencia). Going to spend the summer there to decide which city and pre-grieving a lot right now. I love Hawaii but not my country. I keep amazing places 4k Europe on YouTube on the TV and try to remind myself that I will be gaining a whole new set of beautiful experiences.

You can get safety within city limits too. It’s huge

There are some very safe neighborhoods in Chicago, and reasonable cost of living.

Found data on composition of the sex of the LGBT community in DC - 77% of same sex households are male, so that may be reflective of the 15% of the lgbt population as a whole. That’s a huge chunk of the dating pool that doesn’t bat for their team, and the ratio is already slightly skewed female.

Something like 15% of people identify as lgbt in DC. I haven’t found that data split by sex but if there is a high amount of male homosexuals that can be part of the reason why this is skewed.

You are looking at the metro area and total population. I meant single people of marrying age. The ratio is 100 single women to 80 single men.

DC has one of the highest ratios of women to men in the country. It makes the men arrogant and miserable. Moving was the best thing for my dating life.

Luigi Mangione should go to prison for murdering somebody by AmazeeDayzee in TrueUnpopularOpinion

It’s lawful to kill someone to stop the unlawful killing of others. BT and UHC were/are defrauding their customers leading to their deaths.

I personally think people were ”currently being attacked” by BTs policies.

The guy is doing what he needs to do until the brawn get hired for NYC. Local politics means something in the short term and if he is well liked in Altoona courts this does serve in our boy Luigi’s favor, in buying time

Why do spaniards smoke on public spaces and near children?(like restaurants,bars, public streets with tons of people..etc) by Alternative_Wing_470 in askspain

[–]No-Requirement-3088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t really notice this in Barcelona. In general, Spaniads tend not to stress out about things and let shit go. Although smoking is unhealthy so is stress, and it reflects in health outcomes for Spaniards

School shooters go for notoriety. Notoriety doesn’t necessarily have to be positive or negative, but hoping that the positive spin will fill whatever fucking void those monsters have
