I definitely do not recommend trying to meet men with your children present. It’s confusing and the older they get the more uncomfortable it can become.

1. Quantity: High. Especially at bigger schools.
2. Quality: High. They are educated, motivated, and have higher income potential.
3. Networking: Extremely High. Make tons of friends in class. They all have brothers and male friends you need to meet.

Overall: Male nirvana.

1. Quantity: High. Lots of men at church.
2. Quality: High. You have a lot in common with these men. Active in community. Similar religion, morals, belief system. Low risk of predators.
3. Networking: High. Able to make friends. They will tell you who is single, who’s right for you. Many churches have single events.

Overall: Extremely High. Probably the best way to meet a man, period.

Work

1. Quantity: Can be high. Depends where you work.
2. Quality: High. They can hold a job. You know their education and resume. Very low risk of predators.
3. Networking: High. Can make friends that will introduce you to their single male friends.

Overall: High. Depends on where you work. Large companies offer better odds. Risk of affecting your job performance.

1. Quantity: High.
2. Quality: Nonexistent. Complete and total strangers you know NOTHING about.
3. Networking: None.

Overall: PLEASE!

Bars

1. Quantity: High.
2. Quality: Low. Men are in full player mode. If they’re good, you’ll never know who they really are. High risk of a player or predator.
3. Networking: Moderate.

Overall: Unless you’re looking for quick sex, probably a waste of time.

Grocery Stores

1. Quantity: High. Men need to eat.
2. Quality: Very Low. There is no filter. You are hitting on strangers.
3. Networking: None.

Overall: Very Low. You may talk to men, but they’ll most likely be married, in a relationship, weird, or whatever.

Coffee Shop

1. Quantity: Moderate.
2. Quality: Low. Men in a coffee shop show some culture, so you’ve filtered out the social rejects. They’re still strangers. High risk of predators, they love coffee shops.
3. Networking: Low.

Overall: Low. Hang out in a coffee shop long enough, you may date someone. Run a background check on them.

In other words, if you want a husband, don’t go to a bar.

The probability of meeting a future husband comes down to 3 factors:

1. The number of men you meet. (Quantity)

2. The probability of one of those men being a good match. (Quality) This refers to the event's ability to filter out men. As you noted, men at concerts are more cultured than men in a bar.

3. The ability to network socially. (Networking) Ability to make friends who will refer you to other single men.

Having said that, I disagree with your advice. In fact, I disagree with much of the "finding-men" advice female friends say.

Could it work? Anything could work. But if your goal is a husband and father, then how realisitic is it? In other words, how many women to you know that met their husbands in a park? Or online? Or in a coffee shop?

Probably the same amount I know: Very few.

If you or your readers are interested, it could let you know the advice I give my female friends on meeting men.
