    I once bought a pair of winter boots that had the exact same model for men, women, and children. I had the pair in my hands from the woman’s section when the store manager showed me something I certainly didn’t expect. The boots in my hand were marked $75. THE SAME BOOTS were $55 in the men’s department and $35 in the kids section. Since I only wear a lady’s size 7, I easily fit into a boys size 5.5. That was when I started noticing the ‘gender tax’ as I call it, and it is EVERYWHERE.

      @Sez___ Před rokem +243

      This theory is dumb. If this was the case then women would just buy the blue razors and pink razors would not sell and companies would lose money. Every investigative journalist I've seen has disproven this. The items they show with different prices are usually a different product like a a shampoo meant for different types of hair. They also don't take into account how much the different sexes use the products. For example men typically need to wash their hair more because their hair tends to get greasier faster. Do men shave their beards more than women shave their legs and armpits? Men's facial hair is typically thicker and causes more wear on the razors. This happens for both sexes here and there. But any corporation wouldn't just give men a free discount. They would charge every penny they can get

    I added up the cost of each thing, assuming the following:
    You get haircuts maybe 3-4 times a year, but you do it basically all your life.
    (Sometimes you go with cheap haircuts, sometimes with spendy cuts + color + perm or straightening, sometimes corrective measures from what the previous hair person did.)
    You menstruate for roughly 40 years, on average.
    You have sex while fertile for, on average, 30 years or so.
    You wear bras for all but about the first ten years of life.
    You wear shapewear, if you feel you must, for maybe 50 years.
    Skin care can be extremely cheap, or extremely expensive, so I took an average.
    Birth control on a regular basis for those who require it, plus the Plan B for post-assault purposes (dudes: try to remember that just because a person is pregnant doesn't mean THEY made any decisions at all).
    Adding up all those averages, I got to about $200,000 over a lifetime.
    Where I live, that's barely a downpayment on a starter home, but in some places I could buy a really nice house on 100 acres of land for that price.
    Straight men: Consider that, next time you think someone owes you sex because you bought dinner and a movie.

      Do you think toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant is a luxury? Or is it a hygiene product?

    The measurements on the diva cup are probably to help keep track of the flow. Some women can have almost dangerously heavy flows and this could give them a more exact amount of blood loss in the event they need to see a doctor about it. I don't know for sure as I've never used one, but that theory makes sense to me.
    Also with the haircuts, we, as women, typically get charged more simply because we're women. An example. My bf and I went to the same stylist on the same day. All I needed was a trim, which took her about 20 minutes. She cut off about half of my bf's hair (he had a long ponytail), and trimmed up/styled his beard, which took her about 45 minutes. At the end, she charged him $20 and was about to charge me $45, but ended up charging me the same amount as him. I assume because she re-evaluated the amount of work done on each of us and realized it wasn't fair to charge me more than double for less than half the work done.

It's your own fault for letting it flow") and less sympathetic about topics like menstruation and birth control ("I don't think it's that bad, they're probably just whining", "lol you're scared of getting Plan B? it's your own fault for being a slut")

    "Why do you think women spend more money on skincare products than men?"

      And totally not because the portrayal of women in media is feeding into girl's and women's insecurity, making them question their value as a person if they can't live up to the hyper unrealistic beauty standards. Which in turn makes them susceptible for beauty products and even operations regardless of how ethical or effective they are. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
      I am not talking about make-up or things you do for yourself to feel more pretty, but more about ridiculous overpriced, harmful, or scammy products and the industry behind them preying on those affected by societal pressures.

    No pads mentioned?! Many women wouldn't be able to use tampons or those cups. I'm pads all the way.
    And, by the way, the Frida Mom Postpartum Kit is lovely to for that time of the month. 😊

    you know what? tampons absolutely look like rockets (and dynamite too) and I seriously think we need to start throwing dynamite and rockets into tampon advertisements and packaging

    That skincare kit was a sample size. LOL Also, can we talk about more missed days, on average because of illness, PMS or childcare... and the obvious wage gap?
