The Pink Tax is real. You're lucky you don't bleed monthly. Who would buy you tampons?

Faqs, do you think it is right/moral/fair that a woman's top costs nearly twice as much to launder as a man's nearly identical top?

Do you think it is right/fair/moral that the government has larger taxes on women's clothing items than mens?

Do you find it strange at all that a pink floral deodorant is more expensive than the blue woodsy deodorant?

Not to mention women spend about, oh, $12 a month or something on menstruation related items.

Add to this the fact that women make less than men. Huh.

But yeah, you should totally make fun of it. Cuz 'Merica!!!

Burn! (Or should it now be spelled "Bern!")
It’s relatively easy to agree that only Homo sapiens can speak about things that don’t really exist, and believe six impossible things before breakfast. You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.

What is ironic is that both men and women buy both men and women's products. If it was broken down... do men pay for more feminine products for their wives and daughters than women do with their own income? I know in my family our incomes are pooled and we are more of less one income.

It has absolutely nothing to do with gender equality, it is about marketing, supply and demand, and a free market system. One can go to the 99 cent store and buy totally generic deodorant that gives you a rash, or you can choose to buy one you like. Some products cost more because they work better, and other because of supply and demand and lack of competition and patents.

And by the way we pay more for "Frozen" fruit snacks for our grand daughter than for the Welch's brand that I like. Does this induce Child Molestation?

Point being I am with LDSfaqs on this one.

I am as well. I have a wife and daughter. I've paid for more feminine products than a lot of women. Most of the time I complain about income taxes. It's easy to forget what a high percentage of your income goes to sales taxes as well.
