Bic For Her Medium Ballpoint PenI tried these on a whim, and I have to say I wasn't very impressed. The applicator mechanism is far too fiddly, and the plastic tampon inside far too thin (not to mention uncomfortable and non-absorbant) - I'm sure there must be a knack to using them, but I couldn't find it. They also stained my knickers blue for some reason. I really wanted to like these, but it's back to pads for me.

Most of the non-women-specific earplugs I've seen have been pink as well. I'm guessing that the women's earplugs are probably a bit smaller, which would actually make sense.Anyway... is it still patronising the other way?

For shame.Two days in a row of posting about vaginas. Oh man. So this is what it feels like to be that awkward sex joke guy.

I think you mean 'thread for broads'. Women prefer to called 'broads'.Skirts is also acceptable.

All text in this thread should be pink, or gtfo.

I occasionally work these 3 day marketing conferences where I have to run Powerpoint and lav mics all day to women talking to women about how to sell things to women. They are called Marketing to Moms and Marketing to Women, because Moms are different than women. They are loaded with awesome bullshit like Strollers are the new handbag! and my favorite battle cry If you want a Woman to buy something, just shrink it, and PINK it!!!They are amazing.

Since women are such fragile flowers, we need special products just made for us. Including this thread.This is a place for all the things us girls didn't know we needed. I'm not talking about things that only women use (like sanitary napkins, which are inherently for women only) but rather the things that anyone can use, re-marketed in pink versions with ad copy heavy with words like sensitive, gentle, and delicate because lord knows we can't handle discomfort, and we looooove to shop for stupid crap, especially if it's in a decorator color.This was in my Facebook feed. If your camera strap is painful, perhaps you're doing it wrong.I thought these were ridiculous the first time I saw them. Little did I know that the need for pink earplugs was so great that there's not two, but THREE brands (at least) of them.Woman with a go-go lifestyle? There's a sandwich just for her!Fancy yourself a handy woman? Here's some pink tools. 'Cos modern women can't be seen using ugly men's tools, with their black handles.I feel confident that the smart, sarcastic, wonderful people of the PRF can find other examples of this ridiculous marketing angle. We're going to need it, because in today's political climate, it's becoming pretty clear: a lot of people would really like women to get pregnant, take off their shoes, shut the fuck up, and go in the kitchen and make them dinner.
