I understand your theory, I’m saying that the article which articulates the problem doesn’t even bother trying a rebuttal.
But this fear didn’t come from the article, it came from observing the last decade. Hot guys and chads got the #MeToo treatment too, this isn’t a brown problem.
And the article is actually touching on the broader “risk”, spending a lot of money for nothing. The porn-sick guys basically say their OnlyFans, AI, and other whorish substitutes remove the risk of spending hundreds of dollars and getting a narcissistic flake who can’t even be a caring, non-sexual companion. That’s also not a brownoid problem, that’s universal to the modern dating pool. You don’t fix that buy boosting your self-confidence or being charming.
