You seem to be under this weird delusion that if people are not head over heels when it comes to the UK or London then they are all Irene and they are attacking constantly.
You keep calling people who say they do not find London to be all that "Irene" and "troll" and assume they are all one!
London is not a bad place, neither is NYC, but both are overrated!
I suggest you re-read what you have written, you even question the attractiveness of British people and have trolled numerous threads in the same manner.
I doubt very much that you even know most of London, and the same applies to NYC.

I stated that Miami has better looking women than Ibiza from my perspective due to the heritage people in Miami tend to have. (Brazil, Cuban, Colombia, Venezuelan) women from those countries tend to be quite attractive, and the looks and personalities of the women in those countries spills onto Miami's female population.
Ibiza on the other hand is full of gross, overweight, drunk, working class German, Dutch, British, Irish hags shagging around while on holiday and drinking until they can no longer remember what they did.
That does not mean there are not attractive women in the UK, Germany etc. It is simply that Ibiza tends to be visited by trashy women versus classy women which likely will frequent other much more cultural parts of Spain.
It is comparable to Padre Island or Cancun in Mexico, which is often full of fat, pasty, cellulite and tattoo ridden American women, drunk beyond comprehension, spreading their legs to anything that moves. That does not mean every woman back in the US is the same way. In fact if you go to posh and highly cultural/historical parts of Mexico, the American female tourist you'll find will be much more elegant and classy. The same applies to the quality of visitors from the UK in Spain.
Go to Ibiza, see trashy UK chavs and their women on holiday.
Go to Salamanca, Pamplona, Cordoba etc. See much more attractive, refined female British visitors.
It's a matter of location and the specific demographic that frequents or lives in determined places.

In terms of Ibiza, it's more of a clubbing area and is not full of hags or fat women, other than in your imagination.
As for London (and the UK) you have continually berated it, and you just need to read some of your previous posts.
However in my last post I was actually referring to this thread or have you forgotten your previous posts regarding attractiveness.

In fact, most people outside the UK are indifferent towards the UK. But that applies to the entire world, people are generally indifferent towards other countries and not everyone enjoys the same things.
This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, but to you and Easthome is unfathomable that some forum members might prefer other things versus the UK.
But using your list, I would rank as the following. (My opinion, added a few other Anglophone ones I remember)
1. Chicago
nr. Dublin
2. Boston
nr. Vancouver
--gap--
3. Melbourne
4. Toronto
5. NYC
--gap--
nr. Edinburgh
6. Sydney
7. Atlanta
--gap--
8. London
9. San Francisco
10. Philadelphia
11. Los Angeles
12. Washington DC
ur. Singapore?
--big gap--
13. Miami
--bigger gap--
14. Dallas
15. Phoenix
--big gap--
16. Houston
(Have not been to Singapore.. so I put it where I think it would rank?)
I left out several notables since I'm using about ~5 million metropolitan area population as a cut-off as going further under would basically release a flood of US cities. It seems like you generally prefer urban-ish cities so I'd think that would put Singapore fairly high up sort of like a tropical, cleaner and more urban Vancouver. Well, sorta.
New York has five three star Michelin restaurants, whilst London has five three star Michelin restaurants, and a further two three star Michelin restaurants just outside of London at Bray near Windsor.
It's almost like Michelin was trying to avoid a fight!
London. TBH, the other cities don't really interest me. I've been to NYC so many times there's really no excitement in visiting and it just seems like a larger, more expensive, more logistically difficult city than where I already live. Toronto doesn't do a lot for me and I don't have interest in visiting Sydney (though I'm sure it is a great city).

Yeah I like Clean+Vibrant+Not Sterile+Walkable+Modern cities that offer good public transportation and quality services.
That's why I like Chicago and Boston over NYC and Philadelphia.
But yeah, I need to check out Singapore some time...

You'd probably like Singapore on most counts then. I think the only thing is that the tropical heat and humidity isn't for everyone. It's really clean, vibrant in terms of a lot going on, and thoroughly modern though with some interesting older neighborhoods thrown in mix though those are generally also in pretty good shape. Mass transit and services there is probably a cut above just about any city mentioned in the list for its size.

I think Singapore is the perfect city except for the big issue of the climate, which I loathe. I think the food is the best in the world, everything is super efficient. However, it has become very expensive.
