    This is the solution to every example of the “pink tax” but they don’t want to hear it.

      I mean, telling someone to ignore the things that are actually built for their body and to buy things that likely won’t perfectly fit their body is hardly a solution. At best it’s a bandaid. Just give women pockets dammit!

      My wife buys men’s razors, deodorant, and a bunch of other stuff. Many women’s products are exploitative, expensive garbage.

          Yet I’m annoyed because it was successful. Now I have razor cartridges all over the counter and no idea which is mine. I can see my shaver handle was used but don’t know if she used my blade or swapped cartridges, and which may be mine. Hell, I may not even know which handle is mine: how are they all out on the counter when mine is put away every time. Worst of all: I put the effort into stocking extra cartridges for my shaving needs so how are we always out and no one will let me know when they take the last one?

              Personally, I only use razors twice before tossing them since they dull pretty quickly. I can’t tell just by looking.

              Not knowing how many times a particular cartridge was used would bother me. Wouldn’t be a yuck thing.

                Nothing the guy before you said was explicitly thing, either. Two legs are 10x the surface area of a face. Though the hair might be thinner (the word might is doing some having lifting) it has surely been dulled by the time you’re finished. A fresh razor can be the difference between a clean chin and razor burn all over your neck.

      Tried it, the fit is too difficult. How the hell do people handle all the bunching?
