You must have heard of the Pink Tax.<\/p>\n
This is the apparent gender-based price discrimination between items for men and the exact same product for women. And obviously it is the women who are paying more than men for certain products and services.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s think about that oft asked question \u201cWhy do women pay more for their razors?\u201d<\/p>\n
Well, if you\u2019re a woman and you\u2019re paying more for your razor and<\/strong> you\u2019re complaining about it then you\u2019re either an idiot or you\u2019re stingy.<\/p>\n (Actually you\u2019re also ignorant of the reasons why women\u2019s razors should be more expensive, but I wanted to explore what was going on without bring up any external explanation for the price difference. Which actually means they are idiots or stringy and then also ignorant.)<\/p>\n What exactly happens when they see that a woman\u2019s razor is more expensive than a man\u2019s razor? Well if there is really no difference between the two, they should just buy the cheaper man\u2019s razor. Only an idiot buys the more expensive of two products when the more expensive one has no benefit whatsoever over the less expensive one.<\/p>\n If on the other hand, for some reason, they don\u2019t want to buy a man\u2019s razor but they do want to buy a woman\u2019s razor, then we already have a benefit to buying a women razor\u2019s, namely, the above mentioned \u2018some reason\u2019 whatever that may be, which is a chargeable value that the company is monetizing! It\u2019s not the company\u2019s fault that women are prepared to pay more for whatever extra value women see in women\u2019s razors. Complaining about the higher price is actually saying that even though we value women\u2019s razors more than men\u2019s we don\u2019t want to pay for that added value. In other words, they\u2019re stingy.<\/p>\n Actually, they would also despicable for blaming other people for something that is their fault and they have total control over, but they have no idea what they are doing.<\/p>\n As usual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You must have heard of the Pink Tax.
