I'm shocked, you mean men don't take interest in women with baggage? Stalolin posted...

People like thinking they have a chance with a girl. It's like when a cosplayer mentions a boyfriend on their page and suddenly their follower counts drop. Same reason Japan and Korea's idols usually have strict rules regarding significant others.
This is true. There's an Australian gamer lady called Alanah... something that I sub to. Pearce? Anyway as soon as I saw the first video with her boyfriend in my subscription feed I remember thinking "A lot of her subscribers won't like that." Sure enough there was a reddit post in /r/niceguys a while later from that video showing a bunch of people complaining and unsubscribing.
The same thing probably happened to Dodger. On one hand good on them for just doing it anyway. If neckbeards have these weird issues with women it's their problem. A lot of these girls like sharing their lives and what they do etc and that's part of the appeal, or often it's a hobby and not their job to be a strange alternative reality fantasy for a bunch of dudes.
But on the other hand, know your audience and product. Like if I sold burgers for a living I would avoid mentioning how fat they can make you. If I had a celebrity endorse my brand of yoghurt or whatever I wouldn't upload a snap chat of them eating a rival brand.
Well yeah, it feels weird fawning over a girl and then they start posting videos of their boyfriend and stuff. Personally if I'm talking to a girl, and think that maybe we could have something, and then they bring up a significant other I just drop the subject and talk to them less and less
