I talked about The Scott Aaronson Incident in https://twitter.com/GeniesLoki/status/1316123830721671169 … Honestly I didn't care about 95% of the backlash it was very business as normal the response that enraged me the most was the supposedly empathetic one.

In particular on Twitter and a lot of public discourse I think women's anger is treated with significantly more legitimacy than men's. A woman's anger is treated as good and righteous and a man's as entitlement and a failure of self control.

My desire to attempt to counter this with anecdotes is great, lol, but you're right. Experience with mental illness also skews my whole perspective here. We're talking generally, Owen

Maybe it's the difference in our social milieus, but seriously I've met more women who are beyond that dating money bullshit than not. I'm probably superimposing my own complete bafflement at the whole thing over my memories. It's never made sense to me.

I do think the money thing is a red herring. It's really a norm over who makes the first move, not over who pays, and it seems to get replicated in a lot of circles.
