That's been on my mind several times while debating on this sub. You go into deep comment chain with someone who tried to convience you that your experience is nothing more than internet rage bait and red pill manipulation. Then you find out that this person is married for 10+ years and has not been dating ever since. Or that this person is 20+ years older and their dating dynamic is completely different. What do they know about reality of dating in my age bracket? It's really not productive to debate about completely different things.

I know, I know, age won't immediately show people's relationship status and how long are they out of the game already (someone who gor married at 18 and is 28 now, if I see that person is 28 I'd assume we are in similar dating environment, though we are absolutely not), but it's a start. Maybe someone can come up with more creative indicators.

Besides technicalities, rare cases and concern for privacy (no need to post your age, brackets are fine), I am up to debate why it is not a good idea or why my concern is not valid.
