Yeah that’s definitely a thing. It’s called the Wedding Ring Effect. The consequences of that are kind of wild when you think about it but I guess I can see why it happens.
I low key kind of miss the attention I used to get when I was in a long term relationship but that’s like a hand grenade of a prickly thing to unpack. Does that make me a fuckboy? What does that say about the women who gave me more attention when they knew I was taken? Are they literally attracted to committed men or are we just assumed to be less inherently dangerous if we’re in a relationship? Clearly that’s a bad thing to assume because of what it could enable abusers to do




Incogni has gotten more expensive and charges for things it used to just provide. It’s definitely marketing itself to a demographic that is highly susceptible to mental disorders and that’s pretty exploitative. It’s profiting from an issue that nobody can really prove it doesn’t invest in the perpetuation of.
But it did really help me when I had a problem with a stalker. In the US your county clerk will literally just give out your address to whitepage websites the week you register to vote, get a drivers license, apply for plates or a post office box that that’s pretty fucking stupid. There’s no law against it, they’ve been doing it since phonebooks existed and the people who legislate that too fucking old to ever reconsider what they’re doing or why people’s phone blow up with 50 texts and spam calls/day during election season.
