Here's a radical thought. Maybe men and women would get along better if companies and institutions stopped yelling about how different they are? I get it, everyone has their own opinion, and it's a sensitive topic but come on. Toilet paper for women? A cookbook for men? Some things are just absurd. And you can find them on the subreddit r/PointlesslyGendered. This online community is dedicated to collecting examples of the division between the two genders our society so desperately insists on, and over the years have gotten themselves quite a load. Here are some of the worst ones.

Gender-tailored marketing messages are fairly common, but research shows they can have the opposite effect and repel consumers, especially women. In fact, they often backfire to the point of dissuading women from choosing a product they would have considered if the company hadn't talked about their gender so much, a study by Harvard Business School found.

The reason for this lies in human nature. People tend to resist being categorized (or made to feel like they are unwillingly reduced to a single identity) particularly when the product they're being nudged toward evokes a stereotype about their gender.

Suggesting that women will go crazy over a product wrapped in pink packaging just because some marketer assumes that all women love pink can come across as downright insulting, co-researcher Leslie K. John, the Marvin Bower Associate Professor at HBS, said.

ADVERTISEMENT

"In a way, this project reminds me of my childhood," John explained. "When I was a kid, I had a babysitter who said, 'Leslie, your favorite color is pink.' She would put pink bows in my hair. Everything had to be pink. This project is partly a reaction against this feeling that just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I love pink! There's something very off-putting about feeling like you're being reduced to a single category of membership."

But where does this false notion come from? Why do companies keep trying to sell their products by emphasizing the buyer's gender? Well, the answer to this question might lie in one 2017 Pew Research Center survey.

ADVERTISEMENT

It discovered that Americans think men and women are basically different in the way they express their feelings, their physical abilities, their personal interests, and their approach to parenting. But there is no public consensus on the origins of these differences.

I think marketers know this. Maybe some of them just haven't realized that to have an opinion and to base your purchasing decision on it are two different things.

This applies to other aspects, not only gender. According to previous research, for example, even stereotypes that cast people in a positive light—such as Asians excel in math—can trigger a negative reaction from these groups.

If the women's version included some sort of feminine hygiene product (or anything else) along with everything in the men's version, I could understand the difference. But it's literally exactly the same. I wonder if they are priced like that from the manufacturer or from the store.

I guess the pink plastic cost an extra 2.40 to make than the blue. 🤦‍♀️ my favorite color is blue, (well more of a teal shade). As a baby my mother painted my walls pink, and I had a dark blue carpet. Then when I was a teenager she gave me a light pink carpet, and decided to stencil floral patterns at the top of my walls, which was pretty but then when I decorated my room I had more blues and blacks in patterns and decorations. It's forced on us before we even understand words that pink is for girls and blue is for boys, which is just crazy.

this is why you need to shop carefully, its not just examples. .box for allergies use (diphenhydramine) 2tablets for example 10 cents a tab. but you need a sleep aid boxed as sleep aid (diphenhydramine) 2 tabs 15 cents each exact same product. so its a marketing tool. occasionally there might be a reason for a price difference with female products but rarely. but there are people who will see the difference but buy the one for there gender. and marketing is happy to make extra

Women. ...are more likely to buy hygiene products. A free market will capitalise on this fact by charging more - and so should an ecological-based economy because women are thus using more of these resources (in fact, females account for something like 80% of consumption). Males are less likely to buy hygiene products. A free market will try to capitalise more by encouraging men to purchase more. People who really care about men's health might also be encouraging this, to some degree. Maths is sexist. So is intelligence.

having a designer bag doesn't make you afraid of not being masculine. Why do you think there are diaper bags with flowers and cute baby animals? Because the demographic they are trying to sell the diaper bag to like it.

Isn’t it girly to worry so much about your masculinity all the time? 😉

That's why I buy a lot of "for males only" products. Check the price difference between razors for males or for females if you get a chance.

This is because misogynists see "masculine" women as less like women and therefore better, but "feminine" men as being more like women and therefore bad.

Well, if there's anywhere we should look to for a model of equity between males and females, it should be the Bible. Women were made to be property. But that's okay, so long as you marry them before you rape them.

Personally, I don’t see a problem here. First off, one has purple stripes and the other one blue stripes - it’s not like one has a pink bow on its helmet, THAT would be stupid. Second, even if it’s meant to imply gender, I definitely prefer a male and a female astronaut emoji over just a male one.

Really? From what I heard, boys' clothes often have a looser, more comfortable fit than girls'. Which results in problems trying to dress a rather slender boy in something non-pink because so much clothing is very explicitly gendered, too... (And vice versa: Finding something comfortable, robust for a girl is difficult, too.)
