I can't believe all this. I've lived in NYC 17 years and I think it's a great town for pulling chicks. Why? It's got every kind:
- Stuck-up gold diggers if you've got money
- Glamor wh0res if you're working in entertainment and have connections, or perform
- Sex & The City wannabes
- Young hipsters/artists
- Immigrants - get out of Manhattan and find a non-American with an accent. Latina, Polish, Russian, African, Caribbean, Asian, Indian...many of whom are far less bytchy
- College girls
- Club goers
- Bar flies
- Cougars
- Swingers
- Escorts
The great thing is it's a sea of people on every block. 8.5 million in city proper, 20 million metro. By comparison, if you live in Minnesota, there are about 5 million people in the state.
The key is finding your niche. I just don't do well with the first three on the list. Not my type and my game doesn't match up well with them. The next three, especially immigrants, are my forte and also what I like.
As for the OP's post, I'll agree it's somewhat easier for whites to pull whites. But I've seen couples of every combination. BUT, keep in mind, women consider socio-economics more than men. So a black or Indian guy will have to be working a plum job, dress well, speak the Queen's English, etc., to pull a white girl of similar or lesser stock. A poor black could date a poor grubby white, etc. Obviously we men don't care so much what a girl does for a living, short of the flesh trade. And I do think that Indian and Asian men have the hardest challenge dating outside their race, but in NYC there are so many people, it can happen if one tries.
Most Indian and some Asian men I see don't do themselves any favors with the way they dress and carry themselves. The nerd look - khakis, bad shirts, exposed crewneck undershirt, man purse. On the other hand I'm sure Aziz Ansari (actor) would have his pick of women.
The bottom line is NYC is a smorgasboard...not as "cutthroat" as people think. But you'll have better luck playing the percentages.
