Needlessly gendered things pop up in the weirdest places. Sometimes, this means companies adopting marketing and advertising strategies where they, bizarrely, try to gender products and services for no logical reason whatsoever. Other times, it's random people showing their antiquated attitudes.
Some folks, upon seeing this, get so frustrated that they snap a photo or take a screenshot and share it online for some public shaming. These pictures end up on the ‘Pointlessly Gendered’ and ‘Unnecessarily Gendered’ online communities, which we’re featuring today. Scroll down for our list of photos of needlessly gendered things that pushed people away.

Pushing back against pointlessly gendered products and services might be difficult, but it’s not impossible. Consumers wield a lot of power. And rational business owners tend to react to changing market trends and consumer preferences.
So, voting with your wallet is one of the most powerful things you—along with your family, friends, coworkers, and acquaintances—can do.

If you think that a product is overpriced, the company’s values don’t match yours, and you suspect that someone’s trying to make a quick profit, don’t reward that business with your money. On top of that, reach out to the company’s representatives about your concerns or share your insights on social media. If the behavior is egregious, reach out to your government representatives. Ask them to take a stand and protect your interests as a consumer.
Your cash, attention, and loyalty mean a lot for the longevity of any company. So, by hitting a business where it hurts (its profits and reputation), you’re forcing them to pivot and adapt.

Pointlessly gendering products can be problematic when taken to the extreme. What’s more, it can split your potential customer base.
As ‘The Society Pages’ points out, these products can reinforce gender stereotypes, lead to more inequality, and end up costing women more money. Sometimes, you’ll notice that the masculine and feminine versions of the very same product aren’t priced the same.
“When that happens, the one for women is usually the more expensive one. If women aren’t paying attention—or if it matters to them to have the ‘right‘ product—they end up shelling out more money,” ‘The Society Pages’ explains.

Gender-neutral marketing, however, can help companies expand their target audience and increase brand loyalty. After all, this way, you’re aiming your products and services at the entire population, not just half of it. For instance, instead of labeling the toys you sell by gender, you can do so by age, product category, and brand.

I had a pink polo I usually wore during October (Breast Cancer Awareness Month). I wore it a random day and a "man's man" coworker asked me if it was "salmon" (with all the derision quote marks can imply)... I said "No, it's pink. Are you afraid of a color?" The look on his face was priceless. For the record: my wheelchairs are purple, as is my laptop; my tablet is rose gold and it's cover is light blue with pink cherry blossoms. I like what I like and I won't be stuck with lame colors so people think "I'm a man".

TBH, skincare products for him and for her should make sense. As (cis and HRT-receiving trans) men have more oily skin and higher risk of acne due to their (on average) ten times higher testosterone levels in comparison to (reproductive age cis and estrogen replacement receiving) women. Nonetheless, I also often use deodorants, douchegels and other hygiene products designed/marketed for men.

I think the listings on online stores with girl or boy for unisex stuff are just there to have an additional word a search engine would pick up. And some like the trashcan stickers or the two coloured bins are there for showing equality with both genders represented and not for separating them.
