Chemistry.com Names the Top 10 Cities to Find a Romantic Man

DALLAS, Aug. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- In recognition of National Romance Awareness Month, Chemistry.com, one of the country's most popular online dating sites, has released the nation's Top 10 Cities to Find a Romantic Man. Chemistry.com has tapped its unparalleled data on the personality types of American singles to locate the cities with the highest concentrations of romantic, passionate single men.

"It's a myth that men aren't as romantic as women," says Dr. Helen Fisher, Chief Scientific Advisor to Chemistry.com. "Your romantic streak just depends on your biological makeup.  Based on my research at Chemistry.com, I have found that men who are more expressive of estrogen (and there are lots of them, including some football players), fall in love more regularly than others.  These men are also the most creative when it comes to planning romantic activities, and romantic times are particularly meaningful to them."

Chemistry.com's data has revealed that the most romantic men in America can be found in cities known for their hip, laid-back culture, with San Francisco, CA, Portland, OR, and Austin, TX claiming the top three spots. The full findings can be found on Chemistry's official blog, The Spark.

So move over, Paris... Here are the Top 10 Cities to Find a Romantic Man based on research from Chemistry.com:

1. San Francisco, CA
2. Portland, OR
3. Austin, TX
4. Salt Lake City, UT
