All is relative to where you are comparing to! It's thought of as an industrial, sophisticated, big business town with big career opportunities but stressful. I will say that pro-vegan, green, and laid-back are not really the stereotypes Vancouverites have of Seattle. But while I've lived in both Vancouver and Montreal, I'm not familiar enough with Seattle's culture to really give it a guess. Certainly Seattle seem to be a very car oriented society compared to both Montreal and Vancouver, and food culture in both Vancouver and Montreal are different, but both are fairly healthy in their own ways. Why? I'm sure it's a constellation of cultural factors. adjusted, but the differences are still significant). Statistics would agree with you, Quebec and BC have the lowest obesity rates in Canada, and they are significantly lower than rates in Washington state (not stating specific numbers though because of differences in methodology in numbers found, specifically self-reported weight vs. What is it that you guys are doing right? And in general, less fat, pimply, and stressful people. My main question really is about the fact that are significantly less fat people in Vancouver and Montreal than there is in Seattle, even though Seattle has a reputation for being pro-vegan and pro-green/organic/etc. The rest of the women are either fat, have too many tattoos, have pimply armpits and faces, wear pajamas in public, or all of them combined! Let's not forget that a good number of the women don't actually want to be women! A lot of them are dressed like guys and buzz their hair and wear oversized clothes. There is probably 4 sausages to 1 taco everywhere you go in Capitol Hill (the so-called "spot to be" for nightlife). The very few attractive women are cornered by 3 meaty fleshy dudes. In Seattle at least, first of all, it's pretty much a sausage fest. (Asian guy with white girl, Indian guy with white girl) It warmed my heart. ALSO, I saw many men of minority races with white girls. I also saw a lot of average-looking or maybe even slightly ugly guys with attractive girls (doesn't normally happen in Seattle). or guys!Īnother thing, in the clubs in Vancouver for example I saw a healthy ratio of girls and guys, and a lot of girls were standing alone and put on a welcoming glow so that you can actually talk to them. Maybe this was mainly relevant to the nightlife, but the women were well-dressed, didn't have loads of make-up on, had really white teeth, skinny in the arms, legs, and also a lot of them were tall.
They weren't just good-looking, but 9 out of 10 had super clear skin, thin waists, not tattooed (not that I have a serious problem with tattoos), and most of all.they knew how to dress. This is a compliment, and I want to know why, not that I am complaining, but seriously.I've seen so many gorgeous young women in the 1 night in Vancouver and 1 week in Montreal more so than I ever have in my current city (Seattle, Washington). I went to both Montreal and Vancouver this summer and experienced the night life.
