In modern society, definitely women. Trying to maintain yourself to public standards with menstrual, skin, hair, and other care is exhausting.
For the other 99% of human history, definitely men. In recent history all of the household income was expected to come from the man. In prehistory, men needed 25% more wooly mammoth to not starve to death.
I think generally women, it's in a lot of stats where ads are catered for women and they go more into debt with credit cards I think, and as a woman, I do spend money on clothes and stuff that I don't REALLY need, but at the same time I think guys can also have expensive taste for the luxuries but I don't know depends...
When single, men spend more... they throw down major money on dating and pursuing a girl and looking good and having nice items or cars. When being a longterm couple, girls spend more... they like to get pretty things and feel free to spend big money of purses, clothes, and items for their places.
I'm single I don't, I'm blessed with good female friends who feed me🤣🤣... Most of my money is gone becuz of drinking coke and eating fast food daily, or buying manga's anime stuff and all...
Men do without a doubt. You can just look at the rates of who runs the budget in house holds. Women are statistically better and more commonly found house hold finances. God bless em, because I swear. I personally find swallowing a 9mm bullet is a quicker and less painful solution than trying to balance a budget, lol.
Women are the spenders when it comes to all things impractical. Like for us men I’d say 3 pairs of shoes is plenty. 1 set of boots so you don’t a nail going through your foot or something else like that. 1 set of work shoes if you work somewhere fancy 1 set of “work out shoes” basically just sneakers. Personally I just have a pair of of boots that use for all those things.
Most women like to shop, and most advertisers aim their products at women, so women must spend more.
Historically, men go to work and bring home the money that the woman then uses to buy groceries, buy clothes for the kids, pay bills, etc. ... plus go shopping for herself.
And WOMEN should be the one spending more money!.. Men's job is to bring resources, women job is to allocate and spend them to Build a home and raise a family!..
If men started spending money, definitely will buy stupid junk!
This a general opinion!.. However there are exception in men and women!..
In my case me and me girlfriend spend about the same, she spends more on clothing, meds and stuff and i be spending more on tech related stuff aside from other basic needs that we both tackle together. My mum spends way less than any of us, she saves a lot and buys only when she needs anything. My dad spends a lot balancing what my mom does. My sister spends less than me. So wrt all what i have observed in my family, us guys might be spending more since we be earning more? i guess
I personally believe women would spend more because they tend to prefer stylish stuff that might cost a lot most men just don't care for fashion that much. I might be the minority in terms of men who love fashion but I know other guys just don't care for fashion as much as girls.
The same apply with interior design most women go nuts with decorating their homes while men just more or less just find things they have as kids
Men spend more money because they make more money but women are easier targets for returning customers. As a business owner I will say that it's better to target men because you can always change and evolve your product, but women are too unpredictable and nonsensical for their purchase choices.
According to data, which comes from the U. S. government, from anonymous and aggregated spending transactions from Citi, and third party data providers, men spend more than women on just about everything, including dining out, travel and electronics.
But there are a few categories where women spend more than men: clothes, for example, and personal care.
my partner spends a shit load on stuff that's not essential.
i only buy myself food to eat or actual essential items. the last time i bought something for me that i didn't even need was like June... and that'll likely be the last time for quite awhile.

by the way, the non essential was a few shirts to wear. so i guess technically it may be essential anyways.
I will get a lot of flack here but definatley men. Mostly because they pay for things for women. Think about it if most women work upto a certain point then stay at home and look after the kids or only work part time. Then obviously the man is going to spend more money. If you can give me one scenario where a man stayed at home and a female lavished him with gifts or paid for most things?
Everyone. We all brainwashed to buy, but a d buy some more. Just create more garbage. Then those weirdos that over pay coffee at Starbucks, like why? Just because you pay more doesn't make it better quality. Then there named brands. Costs so little to make and they charge you 1000% for the logo.. people keep getting fooled. Most people but the most useless things. Those who spend then on experiences are on the right track.
It's a fact that females do, this is why most commercial products are geared moreso towards females, this is also why female products are generally more expensive than men's products, you show companies you are willing to spend a lot of money, like $1500 on a purse. If females weren't so materialistic in nature, prices on your products would be cheaper.
@UCrayCray that is not an average purchase and it's not a majority purchase. Those prices are the way they are because of various factors such as the halftime performer and the previous years ticket sales, if they had some no name person doing the halftime show ticket prices would be very low but they have to negotiate with the artist and sometimes that just means a higher cost.
It cost that much because people will pay it. It’s that simple. There appears to be this misconception that women just spend more money. It’s not true. I checked out various sources that all said that men and women are not that far apart when it comes to spending. In fact, single men outspend single women. And that 4k-5k was the average price for a super bowl ticket in 2022. What’s the difference between spending 5k on a sporting event versus a purse? 🤷‍♀️ Both are stupid as far as I’m concerned.
@UCrayCray I forgot to factor in some things and I am going to switch my answer to Men spend more, we buy cars houses, pay all the bills, give females our money to spend, so technically you're right females don't spend as much as men do.
Women. They spend a lot more money on clothing. But that isn’t necessarily their fault - stuff is marketed to women and the higher the price tag, the better the product (which is complete and total BS).
Women make 85% of all consumer purchases in the US. They not only spend their money, they spend their husband's/boyfriend's money if he doesn't take the proper steps to keep her from blowing it all.
Women, as we need a lot more shit than guys, we need makeup & clothes and plastic surgery and shoes and we just like wasting money. We're put on earth to shop.

Women do 80% of domestic purchasing. And they buy way more clothing for themselves.
Men tend to purchase far fewer items, but when they do, the dollar amounts per item are higher.
The bulk of ad budgets are directed at males though. So maybe that says something; who the real spenders are.

It depends on the purpose of the spending.
Women probably spend more often than men do.
However, men tackle the more costly acquisitions.

Oh yeah? Is that why Super Bowl tickets averaged 4k-5k a piece in 2022?

Well done. đź‘Ť
@UCrayCray something impossible for females to do.
