I think this has less to do with prices or quality and more to do with a reduction in international tourism across the board.

Wouldn't a scarf work better as a scarf?

So you had to have a tall, floppy night cap in case you were ever hanged, got it.

Does a tall, floppy hat keep your head warmer than something that lays closer to your head?

I'm old enough to remember in 2009 when Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court, mentioning empathy as one of the characteristics he valued in her, and the right melted down

What's the purpose of a night cap? Like why would anyone want to wear a tall, floppy hat while they sleep?

I remember being 20 over 20 years ago, and my dating life was a hot mess. Almost everyone I knew had a dating life that was a hot mess. You're really, really young and have a ton of life ahead of you. Don't get discouraged before you even start.

These are all potential factors, yes, but they're just ideas until there's direct evidence

Remember when South Park had Robert Smith defeating Mecha-Streisand in their first season in 1998? She was vocal about hating that and it gave it more attention well before the term Streisand effect was even coined. They know who to pick on for sure

Dating someone in their 20s as a 30 year old is not predatory unless you're preying on them (taking advantage of them by welding power over them or using their inexperience against them). It does not sound like you will be preying on them. Right now, focus on finding someone you like, their exact age doesn't matter like you think it does.
