Gender has been a hotly debated topic for some time now. For some people this is great, in-depth discussions about the injustices and societal imbalances caused by outdated gender norms are long overdue. For others it is unnecessary, virtue-signaling nonsense that gets in the way of more pressing issues. If you have any doubts about gender, just look inside your pants and carry on with your life.
Of course this is overly simplistic. But no matter where you stand on the myriad opinions and debates swirling around on the subject of gender, you can have a laugh at this list compiled by Bored Panda. Because companies and their marketing departments have been manipulating us for years, playing on our insecurities and ill-conceived notions of gender stereotypes to make a quick buck, we compiled a list of the most transparent, ridiculous examples for your viewing pleasure.
From man-pickles, to examples of identical products, except for one being pink and more expensive just… because, this list will leave you wondering why all this is necessary in this day and age. Scroll down to check it out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Men don't have different teeth, but our saliva pH is slightly more acidic than women due to differences in hormones. Up to .5 more acidic (which is pretty significant). Need to stop pretending that equal means identical. It doesn't.

Hey, this answer I liked BUT since there are exceptions to this rule the toothpaste should be for DIFFERENT ACID LEVEL mouths, not different genders. That would be a great selling point plus we don't live in a binary world and a lot of people out of the 7 bln are born with genitalia and gender-identity that falls between or neither and I'm sure there are men with "female ph level mouths' just as there are 'male basic mouths' on women.

first result in google search If you take a male and a female, exactly the same height and weight, the male will require more calories a day to maintain their weight, than the female. That pretty much translates at males tend to physically need to eat more and females need to eat less than men. And depending on how much someone eats on a daily basis, it effects how much their stomach their stomach is able to expand. So if men physically need to eat more food, and therefore they probably do eat more food, as compared to women, it probably will make sense that the stomach has more stretch to accommodate the larger average caloric intake. Therefore yes, if there are two people of the same height and weight, male and female, it is very likely that the male's stomach has a larger capacity than the female's.

Are You A Boy Or An Apricot

Ok.... men don't like to shop. They don't want to smell 5million shampoo bottles, before they decide to go with the first one, like most of us girls do. They want to go into the store, grab a shampoo, any shampoo, and get the eff out. So actually this just shows you how easy men are (no offense gentlemen :) )And if we think about it... is it really fair that only women are pictured on anti wrinkle cream? What if a man wants to be wrinkle free? And what if a man wants to smell like strawberry shortcake? How fair is it to them that they only have one tiny section at Walgreens?

And if you had a brother, that would drive your parents up the wall, because they'd have to spend twice the money because you wouldn't like the blue, and he wouldn't like the pink!

But by just offering one, or offering colors other than pink and blue, that avoids the whole problem.

This is one place where the person complaining didn't know anything about the product. There's size and filling differences in difference for women's and men's, as what is biologically comfortably for one isn't always for the other - apparently biology haven't gotten to the point where it feels like it have to support both genders are the same.
Stephanie Jackson 7 years ago
Juan is correct. Sleeping bags ARE specifically gendered. The design differences are seen by a more generous cut in the HIP area for women than men (boob space? Smh). Insulation is also distributed differently. It is up to you to decide what is going to work out best. I recommend if you are shopping for a bag to try it out at least for fit in the store. Most will let you .
Mirjam Proos 7 years ago
Gendered sleeping bags are usually the same price, but have small differences in the cut of the bag and the placing of the filling. (Women's bags have a bit extra warmth for the feet and some extra space around the hips for comfort. My large-ish hips are plenty thankful not to have the bag tight there!)
Jyri Hakola 7 years ago
I can't say anything sure about the ones in the photo but generally there are real differences in men's and women's sleeping bags. The ones designated to women have for example bit narrower cut shoulder level and bit wider cut in hips and they are usually bit shorter. All of this is meant to reduce the excess volume and thus keep the user more warmer.

Actually women's sleeping bags have different kind of batting on the back. When you sleep on hard ground or camping matress it's very useful as women usually have bit more curved backside.

So why not just call it short and long bags? Why men's and women's bag? What about tall women and short men? Why aren't people trusted to make the correct choice for their body size or preference? Do you want a long bag or a short bag? Thick or thin? Narrow or wide? Calling it men's or women's isn't telling us the actual difference.

Just pick the color you like better. If it doesn't specifically says "for girls" or "for boys", just stop thinking the colors have to be about it.

I's pretty sure that this one is actually somewhat based in fact. I read an article a while ago in the natural differences between men and women, and the research mentions that when it comes to taste, men's taste buds are less sensitive and taste less, while women's taste more. As well, men apparently had a higher tolerance for spice while women had a lower one. In conclusion, this is actually more of a product that has been made to accommodate for differences and not just a pointlessly gendered product.

Nope, this one is a total stretch. Different products so different price, and not labelled for men or women, just a different colour. Even the had isn’t especially female or male.

marcelo D. 7 years ago
the screwdriver tips could account for the price difference. However, on this case, they aren´t even the same model of screwdriver. The product is different. Can also be seen from the logo, the pink one is from the "home series" whereas the black one isn't. Also, the pink one is an older model (it has the older B&D logo). But since they are different models, they probably have differences (like the black one having a turnable handle) or the pink one having screw tips

"Boosted with concentrated moisturisers". Perhaps, and I'm just guessing, it has something to do with men and women having different skin and so different requirements?

Wow I didn't know skin was only based on whether or not one was female or male, and not based on DNA and hormones

It's A Drum Kit. Is This Really Necessary?
RaroaRaroa 7 years ago
It's interesting that the one with the boy picture also has a smaller picture of a girl, but not vice versa.

I would prefer the pink one. We shouldn't lose sight of the fact that a lot of girls LIKE the gendered stuff
Cathy Keiran 7 years ago
Interesting that the girls have two choices but the boys only have one
Gabi 7 years ago
That's stupid. Children's preference for colors isn't based upon their genders. I am a wlman and even as a little girl, my fav color was blue. Now that makes me lesbian or transgender or what?

Yeah. Actually exactly what I hope to be normal. Different colour choices without indicating who are these for.

the fact that it's pink doesn't automatically make it "gendered". It's just a choice you can make, sometimes there are green, or golden or other stuff. It's just to give choice to the buyer

Separate Classes Are Necessary Because We Are So Delicate
Margaret Terrell Williams 7 years ago
I can tell you that I prefer women's only nights at the gun range. No men to "show me how it's done" or other stupid nonsense. And there are some women intimidated by men just being there. So, in this instance, I completely understand the difference. Now....we just need to make sure that the classes both cost the exact same.
Audrey Davis _ Student - BuggES 5 years ago
why would they be intimidated? They are stronger AND smarter

Many women want 'women only' classes in order to by-pass judgement or ridicule from men. Same thing in gyms.

It's Just Glue

Disagree with this, its a colour choice. Not a gender choice, you can say its all subliminal but in the end its up to your own mind. If they had a brown colour version would that be racist?
Ehren Thomsen 7 years ago
Completely agreed. I think in this case, it's the best way to do it: offer a choice of colors, without genderizing them.

What I think is that if a girl uses the boy glue(and visa versa) it won;t glue!!!
Hilliary Smith 7 years ago
But why a choice of colors in glue? Since when did we need that? Since manufacturers figured that dividing us makes them more money! Unnecessary!

damn... I want my name on the blue one.... I don't like pink #heartbroken
Malin Eriksson 7 years ago
The package is on Finnish and the names are common Finnish names, Chris however is not a common Finnish name so probably not finding that. These couls probably be great if you have loads of kids otherwise my kids name will never be on any toothbrush, not common enough Finnish names...

Any product for women : flowers and everything pink and sunshine mixed with pearls and a flowery smell Anything for men: depths of the ocean, the mountains, rocks and everything in the darkness ... Except that both work exactly the same way .

Men, especially children are also often depicted as "smart" and "genius", while women are visualised as "beautiful" and having other objectifying qualities. Just look at the #3 - boy/girl book post. This teaches something to our kids when they are growing up that, you might not want for your kids..

The biggest problem is why gender ANY of these products in the first place? Okay so you are making some of them "male orientated" but is that just as bad as not making them "female orientated" You could say it is the only way to get man to buy them which is just as sad as labelling them that in the first place.

I work in a restaurant where we offer kids meals. It comes with a small toy. When trying to buy toys for the kids meals i had the hardest times trying to find gender neutral toys... with gender neutral packaging that didnt say boys or girls.... harmfull is a big word but it is dumb that girls arent supposed to play with toy cars unless theyre pink....

This is stupid. I don't know why it has to be labeled as "his" and "hers" but to be fair, A LOT of girls are into pink things. That's not to say that guys aren't. I don't see why it matters. As a young girl I was always attracted to pink sparkly things. No, that doesn't mean that all girls are. But who cares? Why does this matter so much to people. Aren't there other things going on in the world that are a bit more important than gender specific a*s wipes?

Im raised quite gender neutral and was neither a tomboy nor girly girl. But when people gave me barbie dolls for my birtday i wasnt highly offended or anything. Some people in these comments are a bit fragile. Gender rolls dont necessarily damage people. BUT what the heck is toothpaste for men...............

Most of these aren't offensive. It's just pointless to make things gender specific when they have nothing to do with gender.

Why are there gendered stuff like "girl" batteries, "man" tooth brushes. I mean we're just going to use it as it is it doesn't need to be labeled "only for men" or "only for women" and stuff like that. Sure, there are things that are designed for that sex because girls and guys aren't always the same but this c**p is going way too far. For those stores out there who sell these type of things, and for the people who come up with this c**p: Don't be a sexist a**h*le.

"If you have any doubts about gender, just look inside your pants and carry on with your life." - oh well. OP, you learned nothing. Let's try to correct this: "if you have any doubts about your SEX, just look inside your pants. If you're insecure about your GENDER, look inside your brain, read up what 'gender' even means, surf to some forums about the topic, talk with friends, go seek a therapist if you think you're in need of one, but first and foremost: accept that everyone can define their gender independently from their sex". Here you go. You're welcome.
