It has to do with how one might perceive a city. Since it is based on perception, opinions will vary. I listed my criteria earlier in the thread.

Nah, the spirit of this thread is supposed to be light hearted, and not a city bashing fest..Most forumers on here can creatively place a gender tag on a city.

Lighten up, Francis.

Threads like this aren't meant to be taken seriously.

somebody needs to explain the point of everythread pls, very important!

for some of us this forum is a sort of momentary reprieve from stressful careers/lives. i guess everyone has different things to worry about.

But in the bigger picture, every city is masculine because cities bring order (masculine) to the chaotic natural environment (feminine).

Then NY is a hermaphrodite with its 17th Century, unplanned, organic parts in lower Manhattan serving as its vagina.
