<p>Unalove (as usual) is a font of common sense. On what possible basis would you think that colleges with similar demographics would have a meaningful differences in the distribution of attractive people? Local standards of dressing and grooming will vary, of course, and winter weather in Chicago guarantees that people there will spend a good part of the year significantly more sheathed than their counterparts west and south. </p>
<p>Those East Coast girls (like unalove) are hip, I really dig those styles they wear, and there may be somewhat fewer of them in Chicago compared to New York. If you dig a French bikini on Hawaiian Island dolls by a palm tree in the sand . . . well, there’s a real dearth of that at the University of Chicago most of the time. (I hear it’s an issue at Columbia, too.) On the other hand, it’s well-known that Midwest farmer’s daughters and Northern girls, with the way they kiss, are both capable of making you feel alright, and they are well-represented in Chicago. I wish they all could be California – California is terrific; I wish everything could be California, and I’m a total East Coast snob – but, sorry to say, no dice. Chicago is pretty great.</p>
<p>And, if you are weighing all the factors carefully, you may want to consider that the University of Chicago is one of a very few places in the world where beautiful women may consider your interest in number theory sexy rather than an indication that you are not fit to reproduce.</p>
