Why is there a prices difference between women’s products and men’s products. Is there a difference? Should women simply buy men’s products?
Aviva Maxwell, a Montreal woman and mother of three wants companies to stop making women pay more for personal care products. She first noticed the “pink tax” while shopping for deodorant with her brother. She found that a brand that she buys was larger for men than the equivalent women’s product, but both products were sold for the same price and had the same ingredient list.
Maxwell’s lawyer Michael Simpkin said the “pink tax” is a commercial practice that is discriminatory toward women. But, it could take up to a year for the lawsuit to be authorized.
