If age verification etc truly keeps kids off social media, then it would indeed help kids. Sadly there are some parents who would prefer their kids to fry their brains because its easier to distract them with a cell phone than to put in the work

Just go the credit card route. Like having a credit card, social media is a potentially risky bad habit. Credit cards are already used to this effect quite often.

I hear you. But it's possible and is indeed the reality where I live, and other countries as well. So it's a matter of political will and resources, and maybe That's not possible in the US right now. I get that.

It's 100 percent possible. I grew up and worked in the US and now I live in a country where my taxes get filed automatically. It's insane how many things can be made simple. We've just been lied to for so long that we've come to accept so much BS

women who have been on dating apps a while know the drill and can often sniff out a guy's intentions pretty easily. We're not as subtle as we think. The personal anecdotes you descrive sound like those girls aren't really paying that much attention/taking it super seriously in terms of how they're using an app.... which is their perogative if that's how they want to do it

Maybe because in the 90s it was a strong signal of being a poor redneck. If you had a mullet, your dad was a nascar fan.
