    First off: dating is fucking expensive, and unfortunately standard gender roles means the dude foots the bill most of the time.

    Not an excuse for most Lemmy users. Most American Lemmy users make far more than the average American. I have seen Lemmy users legit bitch that they only make $80K a year. That’s more than I ever made a year in my entire working life. And I never had a problem dating.

    It’s a personality issue, not a money issue.

        Yeah, I definitely wish I would have went that route when I was younger. I’m retired now, so I can’t complain, but I could have a lot more cool shit if I would have made more money! lol
