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 ๐
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.
As for the "assumed OOP" thing - we all do that, I think. I know I do constantly and have to check myself, even though I think it's pretty minor in the grand scheme of things. That is, of course, as long as we can all agree about PT Cruisers. ;)
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.
They're not the only person who thinks a PT Cruiser is poor taste ...
