"Chicken fries are $1.69. But if you get it in a PINK box, they're $3.09! Because pink tax!"

If they can get people to buy overpriced chicken by calling it feminism, they're geniuses.

are they donating the extra money or something? Seems like they're just duping stupid customers into paying more for nothing and calling it some kind of social movement.

It's not about whether something is real anymore. It's about boosting public image

"Personal care products for women cost 13 percent more, toys made for girls cost 7 percent more, and female clothing costs 8 percent more."

Because almost all of these products cost significantly more to manufacture. Compare the ingredients list for women's shampoo with men's - deodorant, soap, shave products, etc. Manufacturing of toys and clothes for products intended for women are also slightly higher than men.

The most common comparison is toys that, on the surface, only seem to have a paint difference, but some specific examples I've seen, like a tricycle that was painted pink, was a limited-run item that actually donated part of the proceeds to charity.

I can kinda believe that. When I compare the clothes my wife and I get, it sure seems like women's clothes are a bit less standardized.

Even with our kids (we have a girl and a boy), my wife, her mother, and her aunt have all complained about how much harder it is to find nice clothes for little boys than it is girls.

Not only that, they're oftentimes made of different materials and even require totally different machines and processes to make.

So to make a statement about a 7 or 8 percent difference they mark them up 100%.

What's wrong with some virtue signalling? Whether it's Starbucks creating more plastic waste that will end up in landfills or the ocean because people got assblasted about a straw in a turtle's nose, Burger King charging more money for some of their products to bring attention to an imaginary slight, restaurants in Oregon charging men 23% more to eat there to bring attention to an imaginary wage gap, or minorities staging hate crimes against them to "start a conversation," people will do anything for attention.

Not as liberating as a good ol' rant about how oppressed they are.

If they made chicken fries that cost more because they actually used whole meat instead of ground formed/pressed mystery cuts, weren't overcooked nastiness. I actually might pay more (or rather, even get them.) and it would be applicable to how the "pink tax" really works.

female-targeted products dont cost more because they're made better

they cost more because they believe women will pay extra for a product "made for them" and men wont

While that may be the case for some, most women's products actually cost more to manufacture. As I already pointed out, compare ingredient lists for men's shower and shave products to women's.

I really hate the term pink "tax" because even if it's true, the word "tax" is a terrible word for it. It's not a tax if you're not forced into it. The simple fact that they're allowed to buy "male" versions of products makes it not a tax.

Admittedly, that is me being too hyper specific, but I just feel like using the word "tax" gives it the wrong idea.

Also, I made this 2 min video making fun of a pink tax video.

Nuance Bro did a debunking video on this as well. Is there something tat feminism does to the brain that makes people so easily manipulated by this bullshit?
