Over time, a lot has changed in the world. Take gender equality as an example. Now, people take great care not to stigmatize genders.
Or at least that’s what you’d think. But come to find out, a lot of companies seem to be going to great lengths to separate males from females. Even today it’s easy to find the most ridiculously gendered products to have ever hit the market.
Some of these are so out in left field that the only thing you can do is laugh. If you need proof, check out these 50 examples.
See, there’s nothing wrong with men knitting. But they need to do it the right way. That entails riding a horse while making a beautiful shawl.
Who knew? It seems there’s a version of Jenga just for girls. And look, the packaging is pink … but what about those who don’t like that color?
Why is it that companies assume only boys like certain toys? As you can tell by this girl’s expression, that’s unfair. After all, she’s a huge superhero fan.
4. What’s the difference?
Seriously. Doesn’t this mirror look as though it’d work for both men and women? Can someone please explain, please?
If you’re a girl, you can only be gorgeous. And if you’re a boy, you have to be clever. Sorry, kids … that’s the way it is.
6. What’s up with blue and pink?
We think a lot of people would like an answer to this question. Now they sell gender-specific gift cards? Who was put in charge of choosing gender colors anyway?
7. You learn something new every day
Well, here’s something a lot of people didn’t know. Men and women don’t have the same kind of teeth. That has to be right considering there’s a men’s only toothpaste.
It seems as though men and women have different kinds of noses, too. Apparently, men need larger tissues because they have bigger noses. Then again, it could be that they have more boogers.
9. Nothing like a bubble bath
Hey, many guys enjoy soaking in the tub. And a lot of them even appreciate bubbles. But of course, their bath bombs have to be masculine.
Yes, even snack manufacturers have come up with crazy gender products. The titles are bad enough. But then they took things a step further by making it skulls versus strawberries.
Good grief. They even offer gun classes just for women. Considering how fragile females are, we suppose that’s a good idea (insert sarcasm here).
12. Wouldn’t you love to know
Isn’t the Bible supposed to be a universal book? You know, God spoke to males and females alike? It’d sure be interesting to see what the difference is.
13. Sending the wrong message
We get it. Boys are super smart while the only thing girls are good at is taking selfies. Whoever thought of this idea should just stop thinking.
We hate to tell the company that made this but there are millions of women who also like lemonade. In fact, here’s a secret. Most of them can make better lemonade than what comes in this can … just saying.
Here’s another product with a pointless message. No, not all girls hate their thighs. And no, not all boys are super.
We could say so many things about this product. But we won’t. The reason, they’re all pretty gross.
If you’re trying to figure out what’s unfair, look at the quantity. Why do women only get 90 tablets while men get 100? What, do they think women can’t handle 10 more?
That’s right, after introducing this to the market, it flopped big time. The maker couldn’t understand why. Let’s see, it might be the horrible gender focus or perhaps the unappetizing appearance of the soup … or maybe both.
All we can say is that hopefully, they didn’t use real man odors. Can you imagine burning candles in your home that smell like body odor? Even worse, man farts?
After all, don’t most men like looking macho, as if they’re going into battle? Isn’t that the latest trend? Sometimes, things don’t make sense … this is one of those times.
… raise your hand. We don’t see anyone raising their hands. Don’t feel bad, we’re just as clueless as you are.
Right, girls only want pink guns. Yes, that’s an option and they’re cool. But most women carrying a gun for protection want something a bit more intimidating.
23. Two versions of Earth
Here’s another lesson for today. There are two versions of the Earth. One for boys and the other for girls.
At one time, these signs would’ve been acceptable. But today? For one thing, these don’t apply and for another, they’re also incredibly frustrating.
Since there’s a man’s version of the umbrella, raindrops must fall differently on males than they do on females. This is just so odd. Look, an umbrella is an umbrella regardless of a person’s gender.
This toy company messed up twice on this product. First, they created a blue plane for boys and a pink plane for girls. The second mistake … the pilot for both planes is a man.
So, it seems that men also have different ears than women. But look closely at this package and you’ll see that instead of calling them Q-tips, they’re the “ultimate multi-tool.” This is downright hilarious.
28. Identical and different
If you read the information provided about these sleeping bags, you’ll discover something interesting. Whether for a man or woman, they’re identical. Yep…same product.
Believe it or not, you can now order batteries for girls because somehow, they work differently. And look, you get a free balloon. To no one’s surprise, it’s pink.
30. Two very important questions
So, what happens if someone accidentally feeds one of these treats to their male dog? Is there some kind of warning on the package? Will their pet get sick?
31. They even got the pickles
We thought the pickles would be spared. But we were wrong. Although unsure, we’re guessing the boy pickles are spicier because you know, girls are so sensitive.
Sure he does. They’re colorful and they look like a lot of fun to play with. Hopefully, this kid’s mom bought the product without giving it a second thought.
33. They’re not fooling anyone
Newsflash … women are amazingly smart. This tool manufacturing company thought they could sell a ton of these hammers to women because they’re pink. But when it comes to quality, gals can tell the difference between poor and super in a heartbeat.
34. Boys have secrets, too
It wasn’t so much that this mom was looking for a masculine secret diary for her five-year-old boy, just not one that was pink and covered with flowers and puppies. All she wanted was something gender-neutral.
Here’s all we can say about this. If the tape’s made specifically for girls, you can bet it’s extra tough just like them. If it’s not, it should be.
The man in the house can now own a manly cast iron skillet. Somehow, he’ll think it’s better than the one the woman in the house uses. Hey, if it gets him to cook dinner, let him believe whatever he wants.
When brushing your teeth, make sure you don’t accidentally use the “man’s” toothbrush. Those bristles look pretty tough. And you certainly wouldn’t want to damage your delicate female teeth.
38. Since playing is different for girls
Because girls play the guitar differently than boys, a company was kind enough to produce this product. If they practice super hard, maybe one day, they’ll be just as good as their gender counterpart. Don’t believe it girls … it’s all a ploy.
Parents everywhere were concerned that their children weren’t learning how to read fast enough. Now, they know why. They were using the wrong gender alphabet book.
This is so pathetic. An individual went through every birthday card displayed. And they couldn’t find a single one that was gender-neutral.
It’s a good thing this store has him and hers gardening gloves. Otherwise, almost anything could go wrong. Now, both men and women don’t have to worry about getting splinters or blisters.
42. Deceiving little minds
You have to feel sorry for today’s kids. In this case, the girls get flowers while the boys get monsters. But check it out … the beads in both packages are identical.
43. Big corporations are guilty, too
Here you have one of the best-known tea products. Why couldn’t they just leave things alone? But no, they had to jump on the wagon to create a tea just for women.
Why? Well, like you, we know a lot of men who love cranberries and raspberries. Sadly, they’ll never get to enjoy this granola bar.
We bet women around the world are over the moon about this product. It’s about time a dishwashing soap came out for men. Now, there’s no excuse for them not doing the dishes.
Two screwdrivers, both made by the same company. But one’s for men, and as you can tell by the color, the other one’s for women. But why does the pink one cost more money?
Before pink tools came out, females couldn’t fix anything. They were completely dependent on men. Now, they’re equally qualified.
As a woman, are you sick and tired of your man getting into all your snacks? If so, you’re not alone. Well, here’s a great solution … you’ll never have to deal with that problem again.
49. Not all doctors are the same
And if you don’t believe it, see for yourself. You can only be a girl doctor if you have pink and purple medical equipment. Boys are a little more diverse.
Okay, women. Now that you can buy a pink keyboard for your computer, you can’t make any more excuses for not getting your work done Who knows, maybe it’ll help you type faster.
Over time, a lot has changed in the world. Take gender equality as an example. Now, people take great care not to stigmatize genders.
Or at least that’s what you’d think. But come to find out, a lot of companies seem to be going to great lengths to separate males from females. Even today it’s easy to find the most ridiculously gendered products to have ever hit the market.
