daringcandle-95

zestyyellow-29 OP

A metaphor is like saying "the dog is barking as loud as a train".

@zestyyellow-29 So the "pink tax" isnt real.
grandquiver-69

Just cos it's a metaphor doesn't make it not real, or r u taking the term completely literal

daringcandle-95

Just cus you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's non existent

@daringcandle-95 Just cus you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's non existent
zestyyellow-29 OP

You said your personal experiences and ive said mine. Clearly led nowhere.

@grandquiver-69 Just cos it's a metaphor doesn't make it not real, or r u taking the term completely literal
daringcandle-95

we might have to break down our words for them

grandquiver-69

The gov don't literally do it, companies choose to make it to ramp up prices

@zestyyellow-29 You said your personal experiences and ive said mine. Clearly led nowhere.
daringcandle-95

But ur saying its not real but it is

daringcandle-95

There's a bunch of people who complain abt it

daringcandle-95

Be more open minded

zestyyellow-29 OP

I was firstly trying to understand your main point with it. I see it as that you cannot name something that has a name already, its stupid. It isnt real if it isnt to a single gender.

zestyyellow-29 OP

The marketing strategy is real as it is across all genders and talks about the overall. The "pink tax" isnt real and is just a way for women to say "we are still oppressed".

@daringcandle-95 Be more open minded
zestyyellow-29 OP

I am very open minded.

@zestyyellow-29 A metaphor is like saying "the dog is barking as loud as a train".

I think that's a simile, not a metaphor

A simile adds 'as' and 'like', a metaphor basically pretends it is

zestyyellow-29 OP

Ah I see now.

zestyyellow-29 OP

It is a simile. But thats besides the point of this.

grandquiver-69

The pink tax is not a literal official tax, it's just at term for people to explain the money thing

@grandquiver-69 The pink tax is not a literal official tax, it's just at term for people to explain the money thing
zestyyellow-29 OP

I know it isnt a real thing literally but it also isnt a thing under any circumstance.

@zestyyellow-29 I am very open minded.
daringcandle-95

daringcandle-95

@zestyyellow-29 No, companies used a marketing strategy that applies to all.
grandquiver-69

Can you explain what this marketing strategy is so I get it point

@grandquiver-69 Can you explain what this marketing strategy is so I get it point
zestyyellow-29 OP

"Whoever is willing to pay"

@daringcandle-95 When tf did we get to oppression
grandquiver-69

Idk but some ppl throw that around too much, I don't mean OP

zestyyellow-29 OP

If someone is willing to pay more then companies will charge more to make a larger profit.

@zestyyellow-29 This isnt about it, I would rather not.
daringcandle-95

@zestyyellow-29 "Whoever is willing to pay"
grandquiver-69

@daringcandle-95 Abt the higher price for women, open minded person
zestyyellow-29 OP

I dont need to discuss my open mindedness.

grandquiver-69

They're more likely on average to spend more for hygiene and scents

@grandquiver-69 And who's the target audience usually, women
zestyyellow-29 OP

Both genders.

zestyyellow-29 OP

zestyyellow-29 OP

So that isnt pink tax, that is simply women buying more products so the marketing strategy works.

zestyyellow-29 OP

You are kind of proving the companies right.
