Unfortunately classism is ever prevalent amongst us queers too. Typically more tolerant though which is nice.

a 2004 Honda Civic is like a personal green flag for me, it's actually hard to wrap my head around that being a bad thing

You live in an appearance obsessed fantasy world full of people who say that "YouTuber" and "Influencer" are their #1 career choices.

Sensible people don't see anything wrong with a Civic.

I also realized if OOP is a man, that sometimes women will judge men on their financial status because the traditional path assumes "the woman" will need to depend on "the man" financially as a stay-at-home mom, and so a desirable man to a traditional, straight woman is usually a wealthy man.

Since I'm a gay woman and I accidentally assumed OOP was also a gay woman, I found it really confusing why she was worried the girl she is going out on a date would judge her for her old but reliable car.

The whole meme makes more sense to me with OOP being a straight man ๐Ÿ˜…

My ex and I were joking about that. I asked her what kind of car would instantly cause her to nope out if someone came to pick her up... "PT Cruiser." No hesitation.

I am inclined to agree.

I think a Hummer would give me the ick faster; I feel like a PT Cruiser is ugly and poor taste, but I would at least find out if like they inherited the car or someone gifted them the car before nopeing out, whereas a Hummer wouldn't probably get that level of benefit of the doubt, I would be looking for the quickest opportunity to nope.

I think I would also feel that way about Corvettes and certain other luxury cars. BMW is also a red flag. Lexus is borderline.

But yeah, I'm also not a typical person who actually went on dates or participated in much courting. At some point it was my goal to never have a romantic partner, and I see it as a fluke (even a failure) that someone found me anyway.

Sometimes a joke is just a joke. But I get your meaning.

oh, I'm dumb then, oops ๐Ÿ˜

Why its just a car? The only red flag with a car I could think of is like a super expensive or impractical choice. Why would you judge a pt cruiser? Very reasonable car.

[-] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 hours ago

They're not the only person who thinks a PT Cruiser is poor taste ...

[-] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 1 points 12 hours ago

Whats impractical? Like a giant pickup or '60 mg mga or similar era italian sports car you need to carry special order parts in the trunk in case it breaks down? 20 year old sports bike?

[-] legopika@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 hours ago

I'll judge over the extended swingarm

[-] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 1 points 4 hours ago

Like it? Did it myself, keeps the bike on the ground, since it goes so fast now I straight-piped the cat, removed the mirrors, and the license plate holder.

[-] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

I believe they said they were judging you for it.

[-] quips@slrpnk.net 2 points 16 hours ago

Exactly, emanates financial responsibility

[-] quips@slrpnk.net 2 points 16 hours ago

Perfect reason to drive an 04 civic lmao
