Personalized pricing for a digital service with a more-or-less constant cost-per-user doesn't make sense here (unless you want to maximize profits by unfairly discriminating against certain demographics).
Agreed, which is why it was a big collective fuckup for Western societies to migrate from the societies where premarital and extramarital sex was condemned, thus ensuring a far more even distribution of sexual access for men and women.
If discrimination by gender or other relevant characteristic was illegal in the US that might have some legal, not moral bearing, but no one cares.
> In the United States, a few states have adopted statutes forbidding gender-based price discrimination, but these policies are largely unenforced.

That "crap" is something you brought up on your own. We're discussing unfair discriminatory pricing, not mating.
Is that 'unfairly discriminating against a certain demographic'?
I suspect it gets a free pass because the demographic being discriminated against is better off (eg. adults who tend to have more disposable income). If it were the other way around (eg. software companies charging elderly people more because they don't know any better), there's going to be more backlash.
this is why you don't see a discount for couples usually - coz they were going to pay even without the discount.
