> women remark that it was a red flag

Toxic femininity?

Oh wait we are banned from using this term :)

It has nothing to do with "toxic femininity", it's classism. And no one's "banning" you from using this term, you're just getting downvoted for your performative "Cancel Culture" signalling.

This seems to be related to both gender roles and class. The culture around the male role in a diadic relationship is classist. I wouldn't use the term toxic femininity, but I think in spirit it has some merit. The complaining about what words you "can say" is annoying for sure.

Agree - you would never see a man turning down a woman because she had a different phone.

yes it does. It is well known that women have a proclivity to climb the social ladder and marry upwards, therefore desiring wealth etc. Duckduckgo hypergamy.

I obviously used the term in a sarcastic manner, to show how stupid it is, together with its sister term
