When It Comes To Dating In NYC Women Say “Size Matters”

New York City, NY (Vocus/PRWEB) December 31, 2010

The average height for adult men and women in the US according to the National Center for Health Statistics is 5 feet 9.2 inches and 5 feet 3.8 inches respectively, making OnSpeedDating’s upcoming “Size Matters” speed dating event for women seeking men 6′1 and taller anything but “average”.

Unlike the majority of dating websites that host traditional themed events like for Jewish dating or professional singles or even based solely on age-range, on Satuday, January 15th, OnSpeedDating will play host to an exclusive speed dating event at Grammercy hot spot The Watering Hole catering to NYC’s “non-vertically challenged” men 6’1” and taller. “I’m originally from Texas, where everything, especially the men are bigger,” says OnSpeedDating Co-Founder, Amber Soletti. “There’s definitely a shortage of tall men in NYC. When you factor in all of the men 5’9” and rounding up to 6’0”, the need for this type of event becomes even more apparent. We’ll definitely be measuring at the door.”

“I think speed dating is a great way to meet people,” says NY single Rindy Lutz. “I look forward to trying a themed event and hope to connect with way more men that I do at events where I have no idea what I’m getting.”

A great alternative to internet dating, speed dating enables you to meet 10-20 singles in one night. Saturday’s event will run singles $ 35.00, much more affordable than the majority of speed dating events that can set you back as much as to $ 50.00 and a small investment for gaining access to an oasis of tall single men, one of which could potentially be “the one”. Drink specials are also part of the OnSpeedDating package and offered to daters at each venue.
