Leave it to Apple to embed perceived socioeconomic status in its damn text messages. I don't really even know what a green text is, but I can assure you I'll never send one.
No, what you'll not send is a blue text if you use Android
Edit: to clarify, iPhone shows texts from Android as green messages and from other iphones as blue. There are some side cases where iphones can send green texts but not relevant to the discussion.

Are gen z likely to be uniformly iPhone users?
That's like the most conformist thing that I have ever heard. The study results are that 21%(F) 25%(M) find having an android phone is a green flag in their partner, while 7%(F) 6%(M) have it as a red flag, so it's not that bad as far android/iPhone is concerned.
It takes an impressive level of social disconnection not to know about Android vs iPhone texting and assume a scientific study asked about an obscure meme format from 4chan.
We literally never used it or saw someone else use it. None of us knows how it works. If you said “Green Texts” to them, the large majority would have no idea what you’re talking about, and the rest would think of the 4chan ones.
Im from Europe and my first thought was also 4chan memes. Texting was a thing like what, 15 years ago? Everyone uses apps like WhatsApp or telegram. And for it being in a scientific study I thought it'd be in the same vain as people listening to Joe Rogan lmao. I'm finding the android vs iPhone thing even more petty
