Greensboro, North Carolina named least sexy city in America

Some cities are known for being sexy. There’s Paris, of course. And New York, Barcelona and Rome.

And then there’s Greensboro, N.C.

Poor Greensboro. It’s been named the least sexy city in America by travel dating web site MissTravel.com. Why are they picking on Greensboro? And for that matter, what’s wrong with Richmond, Va.? And Fort Worth, Texas?

Turns out that these cities get rejected — a lot of the time — for destination dates by members of the website. Poor Greensboro has been rejected 100 percent of the time for 170 out of 170 trip offers.

“Not every destination is an ideal location for falling in love,” says Founder and CEO, Brandon Wade. “A lot of factors have to come together to create a quintessential environment for romance, and when it comes to setting, there’s frankly nothing sexy about North Carolina.”

on one end of the state and mountains on the other end - and everything in-between. If they can't find romance - there is something wrong with them - not our beautiful state!



By the way- President Obama has visited my town four times and last time said he and Michelle had talked of having a retirement home here!
