the pink tax
The Pink Tax is not actually a tax but rather a system of discriminatory pricing on products and services that is based on gender. The Pink Tax costs the average woman over $1,300 a year and impacts all aspects of daily life from shopping to dry cleaning.Gender-specific pricing (where items for women cost more than items for men) is often referred to as the “Pink Tax.” Manufacturers firmly entrench female consumers in their gender-normative sales practices with the use of bright pink or purple packaging, and sweet scents like peony, vanilla and even “fruity bubble in paradise” to make sure women know the product is just for them.

I think I've detected another phenomena that too would probably never
exist in the "man's" world: sold out clothes.
Apart from that AC/DC had a song called sink the pink....
Tyres changed half used etc. On the side of the blog maybe, but pretty grotesque.
I thought about a business idea: a car mechanic shop for female customers only.
Chicks behind the counter as well. Does that exist?
