Extra Charge for Pink Collar Community

in Ladies of Hive16 days ago (edited)

Once you're a woman life is already expensive, for you it's extra money to pay at every point. The money might look really small but at the end of the day the money would amount to a huge hole that would drain your wallet over time.
Been Feminine is really expensive, getting stuff is double the price.
You get a small tag price for those payment, it's called the Pink Labour Tax.

Pink Labour Tax?
Pink Labour Tax
This tax is not the one signed by the president, it's the invincible charges imposed by the people around us.
You just see that you have to pay twice the amount or a little above the normal as a woman.

If you used the barbing saloon as a lady you'd be charged more because your female your hair is much , etc
Even when there are men whose hairstyles should be more expensive than that of a woman.
I remember a Body wash I always bought, over time the price of that body wash has doubled , why?? Because it's s woman's product and you'll have no choice than to pay for it,but the same brand but the male version has stayed the same and price hasn't risen , because there's no demand on the product.

Economically, Increase in Scarcity = Increase in Price
But in the Pink Labour Tax, Increase in Demand=Increase in Price

This is unfair to the community that make up a greater population of the society.
Shopping in a fashion store is really not pocket friendly, recently it's as though cheap skin care no longer exist, I used to wonder what women used in the old days and they still looked good, but in the last 5 years it's as though manufacturers are coming for our pockets.

There's hardly any cheap wig that favours the woman anymore it's, just those one's that run into multiple thousands and they still keep coming for our pockets without mercy.
And hardly of this is a mistake it's just an intentional move to milk us dry.

Yes, I'm familiar with pink tax as well, we first learned about it in high school and I was shocked! 😅

Thankfully, in Canada, they eliminated the tax for tampons (because periods, funnily enough, aren't a luxury! 😂). So, for any other product, I just buy men's: deodorant, shampoo, razors, etc.

I'm so excited that you get me and you know, what it means. Thank you for the support

Thank you for informing more people who may be unaware, because it's such a scam! 😠🚫

Hell yeah I do the same way. I even buy men's clothes as they are more comfortable, but I do it with style.

Yes, make the system work for YOU! 😂 Ever since I had kids, clothing are for comfort and that's it -- PERIODT!! 😃

Comfort in and out please 🥺🥺

Exactly 💯💯💯 not one person is allowed to stress you pl

I've been buying men's clothes since I was 16 as the woman's style is too frilly for me.

Google's advertising infrastructure is evil, their Marketing Division know exactly how to part us from our savings.
