I mean… Have you seen the growth of consumer tools, compared to the growth of consumer appliances? I really think it is sexist. Modern appliances treat the end user like a bimbo. Older appliances allowed a lot of room for negotiation. Now I ask, Ryobi, Dewalt, Stanley - where is your answer? Where is the bimbofication of men?
Some women do buy pants from the men’s section, or buy women’s pants that have pockets.
Buying gendered products that are inferior is entirely your choice.
Know why there’s a “pink tax” but no “blue tax”? Men aren’t going to play along with that game, and will buy whatever gives them the most bang for their buck.
Wait but… I do too. And yet appliances do have worse features and do have more planned obsolescence thrown in for good measure. Buying with your wallet gets harder the more meaningful it is to the capitalist.
Then what they said still doesn’t make sense, because they implied sexism was why better appliances don’t exist.

Oh yeah its my fault for buying what’s on offer, not capital’s fault for making decisions for consumers. Vote with your wallet, they said.
