Personally, I don't believe there is such a think as a "pink" tax. Any price disparity is random.

Women buy expensive shampoo and conditioner at $20.00 or $30.00 dollars per bottle and that's not even high end. I use Suave shampoo and get a very large bottle for $1.89. Women's razors are more expensive than the same identical product for men. The list goes on and on. At the cash register the higher tab has a higher tax.

Women are fools in that respect but we still marry them and our money pays for it. In that respect, all these 44 years of marriage, my paycheck paid the so called pink tax. And no, my beautiful wife has never worked more that a few months as long as we have been married.

If you laid all of the feminists in the world end to end, it would be the best thing that ever happened to them.

Well maybe, but some would not because they couldn’t brag about how expensive it is.

Your view of women is very jaded

The BK’s in my area (local franchise) are generally not too bad, but the food has way too much salt in it. I now only go there if my daughter wants something there (and I can often talk her out of that), or if I’m super short on time and they are the best alternative for the $$. (The local franchise sometimes runs some very good coupons.)

Granted that I cooked for myself as a single guy for a LONG time, so I’m not as picky as some. I still avoid McDonalds as much as possible, though. Their buns have a sort of aftertaste, vaguely coffee-like(?), that I just don’t like. (I dislike coffee, too.)

an old-fashioned hole-in-the-wall diner

I prefer to have the butcher grind fresh chuck roast for me to grill over charcoal.

Or bending over backwards, to prove they are down with the struggle I think they are bending over the other way.

Women just love being called a chick... I used to call my late Mom and her long-time women friends girls for years and they never cared one bit. And they were in their eighties.

can I get my Whopper in a pink box? Maybe, but I've heard it on good authority that women come with a pink box.

A Very pretty young black girl I worked with back in the 70's assured me that hers was "Peach, not pink."

I never took the opportunity to check, as I considered myself married.

It may have been for your limited experience. The women I know are nothing like that

>>Fast food - nasty. I prefer getting burgers at old-fashioned diners, where you see it grilled and get all the tasty add-ons to your liking. To me, In-N-Out has no appeal, the burgers are bland. I won’t even mention McD’s, yuck. Burger King is a step up, but not much. Carl’s Jr makes a decent burger. 5 Guys is okay. Nation’s is pretty good. But an old-fashioned hole-in-the-wall diner beats them all. Fast food is fast garbage to me.

LOL.

It’s not my fault that most women are too dense to know the difference and overpay for items like razors.
