RE: Why Germany is underrated on here + picking a good city
As a native East German, I'd like to spread some inside scoop on Germany in order to complement the mostly accurate descpriptions of greek_kamaki and others.
1. East and West are not that different anymore
I suppose it is tempting for non-Germans to detect differences in girls behavior and attribute it to fact if they are from the East or from the West. But this is largely irrevelant if you look at the age group 18-28. I think I slept with enough girls from both West and East Germany to assess that neither of them are more difficult or easier to lay. True, Ossi women are often less prudish, due to the widespread nudism culture during socialist times, and 99% or so are atheist. But this does not necessarily translate into sluttier behavior. Most former high school classmates in my generation (born in 1988) from my hometown are in LTRs and whoring around is not common. There are some discernible differences between East and West, especially in the generation 28 years an older: Westerners are more cultivated and speak much better English whereas Ossis can be still very proletarian and socially awkward. The latter are also less hospitable and open-minded as well as more racist than the former. By and large you will see common behavior patterns among the above mentioned younger generation that are not too different whether you are in Cologne or in Dresden. Berlin is a different story, though, as there are more artsy and unconventional people around.
Culturally, the North-South divide is way more decisive. People in the North (including Berlin, Hamburg, Kiel, Hannover, Bremen, Leipzig) are much colder and distant than Germans in the affluent and conservative South (Munich, Stuttgart, Frankfurt). Looks-wise, in the North (where mentality is very close to Scandinavia) tall blondes dominate while the South has more brunettes.
2. German Women are Boring and Stonecold
If there are two traits that apply to huge chunk of Germany's female population, then it would be these.
Honestly, American women do get the most hate on this forum, possibly because most members are from the US. But even in the states I found the women a million times more approachable, feminine (yes, fellas) and warmer than in Germany (not thinner, though). When I came to the US in 2011 for the first time, I was blown away by how gratefully girls would react to my approaches. I had gotten so many random smiles and compliments that my self-perception as a man changed radically.
None of this ever happened in Germany. German women don't smile to random strangers who try to strike up smalltalk. The concept of smalltalk is not ingrained in German culture, and likewise I had to adapt to that to during my time in the states. It takes a lot of time for your average German girl to break with her usual stonecold demeanor. Even if you manage to do that there is not much to discover, as many girls here are simply boring and showing passion is off-limits for them. I'm tired of having dates in this country where conversations have no sexual tension at all and feel like contract negotiations.
I assume that German girls mentally age quicker than foreign girls of the same age. Even the semi-ambitious women who are 18 or 19 and study things like business or biology act way more adult than they are. College students of the same age in the US (I was in the Midwest, btw) are like harmless sheep. I couldn't believe how naive and inexperienced they were when I met the first them. On the other hand, Germans like to pretend that they've already seen the hardships of life before, even if they haven't. This makes them, including the girls painfully stuck-up, narrow-minded and soulless.
If you are a guy who is tired of childish girls and who looks for a serious LTR, this attitude has its perks. But if you just wanna have some fun, it can drive you nuts.
On a more positive note: I find German women extremely honest and a tad less hypocritical than American women. Most of the OKC profiles that some users posted here could hardly stem from German women.
3. Go for the Minorities
Germany is not a typical destinations for immigrants. I can recommend nonetheless to go for the few that we have, since local guys rarely do. They are usually much friendlier than German women.
These are the three major groups here:
a) Turks & Arabs
Especially the Turks are more conservative than in their home country. Many Germans are racist toward them, and Turks in return tend to stay among themselves. Maybe it's vice versa, who knows. Anyway, this is why you rarely see mixed couples with a German guy and Turkish girl: For the latter the mores within their communities determine that they can't date a non-Turk, and German guys are rightly afraid to get into serious trouble if they get seen with a Turkish girl. In general, you should also be careful with that, too, but there are some cool Turkish chicks who are secular and go to universities. They are sometimes hard to find, but once you learn that your target is integrated into mainstream culture and has German friends, you should definitely give it a shot. From my experience, these girls are extremely grateful for every attention they get from non-Turks and they are easier to date and bang than you think.
All of this applies to Arabs as well, but odds are they are more religious.
b) Eastern Europeans
A few remarks on the Eastern Europeans that many RVF-members pine for. There is plenty of them in any major city. Most of them are Russian, Yugoslavic or Polish, but Romanians and Ukrainians are also becoming more common. These people are well-integrated into society and not a visible minority such as the Turks, which is why Germans don't bitch too loudly about them. However, there is still a huge social stigma attached to men dating Eastern European women. Even among self-proclaimed educated Germans you will hear more-or-less pejorative remarks on guys who can't get laid with German women and date Eastern European golddiggers instead. That's why many men tend to stay away from Polish or Russian girls. This can work in your favor.
c) Vietnamese
Most Vietnamese migrated to the socialist brotherstate as contract workers and are therefore to be found in East Germany. The community is split: the ones that stick together and never do interracial dating & the liberal Germanized ones. I'm not particularly attracted to these girls but some of them are really cute and easy.
4. Black Guys Can Kill It Here
Among my female friends, I would say that at least 60 percent of them have expressed the wish to have sex with a black guy at least once. Black people are scarce in Germany and women will give them a lot of positive attention, especially during night life. I once met an elderly woman who organizes hens parties in Berlin. According to her black strippers get always booked and are desperately looked for.
Briefly speaking, even an average bro from the projects with no game at all could clean up easily here. Beware of racism in some parts of East Germany, though.
5. Conclusion
As a native, I'd rank Germany as an average country when it comes to women and gaming. There are places in Europe where it is definitely easier to get laid whereas others are much more difficult. I'm okay with the general appearance of girls, but obesity has been spreading recently and when I'm countries like France I'm always getting disappointed about how plain Germans dress. Sometimes, this country pisses me off like nothing else, mainly because of the thoroughly unpassionate female attitudes. On the other hand, it could be much worse (Italy, Spain, Albania).
