To the people complaining this isn’t fair, let’s agree that:
* they’re not doing this to make more money off the higher charges cohort as that doesn’t make sense
* they’re trying to make they most money, period, and that is done by attracting the most people overall
* in order to do that they’re trying to maintain a ratio that attracts all cohorts of all sexes, ages, and orientations
* because there is some non-reciprocal demand among cohorts (more older men like younger women than vice versa)
So if they just charged everybody an equally low rate you’d wind up with a lopsided population that none of the cohorts want and people would leave. Nobody wants this.
So arguing it’s not fair because discrimination isn’t fair as a rhetorical argument feels intellectually dishonest since the state you’re advocating for is a failed one.
