Ah, an age-old tradition: dividing up things into what boys like and what girls like. And now this division of the sexes has been applied to a map of New York City.
Something called Zumper generated a map that shows what areas were popular with male and female renters this summer, and they found out that ladies just love Brooklyn Heights. Of course they do! It's where all the rom-coms are filmed, and if you move there you'll fall in love with a man who wears cableknit sweaters on crisp, autumn weekends while he reads the man sections of the newspaper with furrowed brow. And then all week you'll sit in your home awaiting him to return from a long day at the office, taking breaks in between cooking and cleaning to press your nose into that sweater he wore over the weekend. Is that a hint of another woman's perfume? It's probably that trollop Janine from the office. Maybe you should start trying for kids soon...
Meanwhile, men love Long Island City. All the factories turned apartments are so manly! If Ron Swanson lived here he'd definitely pick LIC to live in. Such an industrial landscape, like one large man cave, impenetrable to woman. [Zumper via the Real Deal]
