hi guys we have a question for you do
you know what pink taxes research by the
price comparison website ID LOH has
shown that females are paying more for
perfume than men are for the male
versions of the same brands female
consumers pay on average 60 pee more per
10 mil of fragrance to put that into
perspective
female UK shoppers are paying nearly 14
pounds more for the likes of Dolce &
Gabbana’s 200 mil light blue code two
toilets when the Pour Homme equivalent
was typically sold for 50 pounds and 65
pence so what is the pink tax well it’s
when women are charged more for products
and services above the standard costs
for the comparable products aimed at men
and more often than not these products
have been colored pink to show that
they’re for a female audience you’ll
notice this particularly on items like
razors hair care products and beauty
products in January of this year
shoppers bit back at the shaving
supplies giant Gillette after they
released an advert challenging toxic
masculinity claiming the company were
being hypocrites as they charge more for
women’s razors than they do for men’s
ones is this the best a man can get
another example of the pink tax is
barberries 100 mil Burberry Brit for her
Oda toilet which costs women 63 pounds
but take the male equivalent Burberry
Brit for him the same size the same
strength and it’s full pounds cheaper
costing 59 pounds and 50 mil of Carolina
Herrera CH for women Oh de Toilette
costs forty pounds and eighty-one pence
compared to thirty-six pounds and fifty
nine tenths for the men’s fragrance of
course not all aftershave and perfumes
show a price difference affected by the
pink tax and in some cases men cents
were even more expensive but the figures
have shown that a vast majority of
female fragrances cost more than that of
the male equivalents so what do you make
of this tell us in the comments below
