If they are identical, then women can buy the blue ones.

This is a seemingly small thing, but it represents a big problem. NONE of this is the business of the government. No wonder the UK is shrinking in influence.

Sad.

Some women have no problem using blue razors.

[Gaffer]

The thing I can’t understand is that men’s razors have become so metro-sexualized with all this extreme close-cutting, lubrication, pivoting an all that.

I’ve been using Bic razors about as long as I can remember. Used to buy them for about a dollar a bag. Work fine once a day and I just don’t care to have my cheeks and chin as silky smooth as all these new commercials portray.

Most of the time I just use an electric razor on trim function to cut down the beard to a non-itch state.

Finally...gender equality has been accomplished! /s

Any woman dumb enough to pay more for a razor because it’s pink rather than blue deserves the mustache she’s trying to get rid of.

What about the pressing hairdresser problem?

[MortMan]

They are cutting the PRICE, not necessarily the COST.

The language may well be lost - to leftism.

[a fool in paradise]

So women are willing to pay more for a product simply because it is pink?

Math is hard.

In the U.S., Target charges more for its store brand of women's razors (pink) than for men's (green) even though they are otherwise identical.

Also at Target in the U.S., a box of 50 Crayola colored pencils costs more for the adult version than for the child version, even though the two products are otherwise identical.

Women are just dumb that way, spending twice as much because they like the color. But, leave it to a woman to use government force when all it took was buying the cheaper equivalent.

[momtothree]

I’ve never understood the “pink” mark ups. Razors, shampoo, etc.... I’ve used the blue ones (and an extreme off brand gray one I found at Big Lots).

[Pikachu_Dad]

Implies that the cost difference is in the color of the dye.

Or more probably, the logistics of making short runs to make the lesser selling pony razors.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

after it was found to charge twice as much for pink disposable twin-blade razors as blue ones.

I'd like to think that most women were smart enough to see that they were the same and buy the blue ones.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

Why not just double the price of the blue razors? :-)

Gillette Fusion blades are $27.75 for 12 blades.

I use the blades for about a month and use Schick Hydro Sensitive Skin Shave Gel.

Clean the blade good after each use.

They cost .10 to make I bet.

I suspect the Russians had involvement here. We don’t have any proof but trust me, you just know they did it. /liberal logic
