Where the Ladies At? is an app for the iPhone that answers an age old question: “Where [are] the Ladies [currently situated]?”
From the app description:
Looking for ‘dem ladies?
Well stop the search, cause we found ’em.
The where the ladies at iPhone application is a compass pointing to the venue with the most ladies. Done by the fine gents at http://wheretheladies.at. It could be a bar it could be a cafe, who knows!
But look: judging from the screenshots, it turns out “the ladies” are at a couple of Mission bars! Specifically, the Latin American Club and the Elbo Room. Anyone want to head over and scope the scene for the rest of us fellas?
From what I can gather, this app aggregates foursquare checkins in San Francisco coming from, well, ladies. Then it finds the location with the highest concentration of said ladies and shows you a big ass arrow pointing you there, because apparently people who need an app to find ladies have an innate poor sense of direction.
Now what the user will do with this information is anyone’s guess. But if this is his preferred method of meeting babes, I’ll bet he’ll just sit in a dark corner and elbow his “wingman” while making a a head nodding gesture towards the ladies in question.

Mission Mission 
man, hetero folks are fucking squares. gay folks have grindr and they arent considered creeps. pretty sure if a few choice folks in SF had it their way no hetero folks would be having sex or if they would it would all be with about five white men who all look like Joaquin Phoenix (bearded version 1.0), Devendra Banhart or Patrick Bateman.
you only listed three white men & only one of them is real.
Patrick Bateman isn’t real.
I don’t know if it’s the punctuation, or if it’s because I’m straight, but this comment is confusing as fuck.
i gotta get this!
There are ladies in San Francisco?
Unless it filters for “hipster-friendly” and “poor judgement with alcohol,” what’s the point?
Its like an app that tells you “where the pills are.”
We need to know what flavor.
Awesome scoop!

Wouldnt this be pointing to the SOMA, Broadway, and the Marina most of the time?
I guess now I know why there were a bunch of dudes acting weird at the Latin American Club tonight…?
Should be called: “Where the Ladies that Constantly Check-In to Places On Foursquare At?”
A more appropriate name for the app would be “Where the nerdy ladies at”. The seems to be a very niche female market:
– own iPhones
– are busy tagging their locations instead of interacting
Where the attention whores at.
