53 Ridiculous Unnecessarily Gendered Products

Buzz Feed9 hours ago

'Cause I'm totally thinking about being "super-cute" when defending myself against an attacker.
The fluffy parts would definitely just get in the way.
Why do women need different tools to begin with?
Finally, men can eat!!!
Boys and girls need different hangers...why again?
What does it even mean for toothpaste to be formulated ~for men~?
Bro, you gotta wipe your butt...bro, I swear it makes you feel like a real man.
What if I'm hangry as a woman? What then?
Remind me why men need different hair dryers than women?
And different loofahs?
And scalp massagers?
Finally! Ice for women!
Looks like some marketing exec decided girls like guns, too, but only if they're pink!
Same with miscroscopes.
And...mustaches?
What about this makes it not for girls?
I'm so glad men can finally enjoy candles.
And bath bombs.
God forbid a girl use — or even play with — a broom that isn't pink.
Lavender is for men, too! You just have to call it "manly lavender smells" instead of "lavender."
Oh no, I need to mark what page I left off at in my book, but I only have my boyfriend's male book marker available! I guess I'll just have to lose my progress. :(
I guess women can't have ginseng or chili?
Gee, I didn't realize how important it was for men and women to use different batteries!
Of course, the one for women costs more just because it's pink.
Same with these razors.
I'm sure glad girls can worship Jesus, too.
I guess I should just be happy they have one for boys?
This is just blatantly sexist.
As is this.
And this.
These gift cards are hopelessly gendered (men get Xbox and Ripcurl; women get MAC and Sephora).
Why do we have to gender these at all, and why does getting served more beer make a man a king and a woman a wench?
I guess with men acting the way they do when they get a cold or the flu, I get why companies think they need different recovery shots.
What about this is "for girls"?
Oh great, more pink tax.
Just go to Ulta. I bet they have better concealer anyway.
These are the exact same, except the women's option has fewer pills and costs more.
Why did they need to make a different pair of tweezers for men? It looks exactly the same as the pair I have.
I guess women can't use products with charcoal.
Why do men need different soap?
Was there really a need for fireworks specifically for girls???
Because men can't look in normal mirrors. Wait, are they vampires?
Good news, gamer girls (oh, sorry, gamer babes) — you finally have your own t-shirt!
I'm so glad the Girl Boss era is over.
Phew, I'm sure glad this store sells toothbrushes for men and women. Otherwise, what would I buy??? Gasp — a regular toothbrush???
I didn't realize men needed different Q-tips.
Or a different soup.
It's just science, y'all.
Would you rather smell like men or apricot?
Why do we need a different guide for women?
Of course the women's version has less product, but at least it costs less this time.
What will happen if I eat this as a girl?
And finally...this is the correct answer.

Pastor Scott Free's 'Chosen Journey' Of Redemption & Purpose

In a candid and inspiring interview on Chosen Journey with Trendsetter Sense, Pastor Scott Free shared his remarkable journey from a troubled past to becoming a beacon of hope and transformation in his community. Known for his work with City Takers, a movement dedicated to urban ministry and outreach, Pastor Scott Free's story is one of redemption, faith, and purpose. Born and raised in Miami, Scott Free's early life was marked by struggles with the law and a lifestyle that led him to prison. Reflecting on his turning point, he shared, 'I remember holding my son in my hands and thinking, I'm either going to be dead or in prison if I don't change my life.' This realization prompted him to move to Atlanta, where his life took a transformative turn. A pivotal moment came during a seemingly ordinary encounter with a stranger who shared his testimony of faith. 'I was driving a U-Haul, and this guy starts talking about how Jesus walked into his prison cell. At first, I thought he was exaggerating, but then I started wondering, could Jesus speak to me like that?' Scott Free recalled. This encounter led to a profound spiritual awakening, which he described as 'a crazy encounter with the living Jesus.' Today, Pastor Scott Free leads City Takers, a movement that uses Christian rap, block parties, and community outreach to engage with underserved communities. 'We like to go where the gates of hell seem like they're prevailing,' he explained. Through events like the City Takers Experience and prison ministry, the movement has touched countless lives. 'We've seen revival break out in prisons, with people encountering Jesus and even starting churches behind bars,' he shared. Scott Free's mission extends beyond music and events. 'It's about creating a pathway to purpose,' he emphasized. 'Everybody's called, everybody's a minister of the gospel. My job is to equip and affirm them.' With upcoming events like a street basketball festival and back-to-school outreach, Pastor Scott Free continues to inspire and uplift. 'It's not about the platform or the title,' he said. 'It's about the people and the transformation in their lives.' SEE ALSO Pastor Scott Free's 'Chosen Journey' Of Redemption & Purpose was originally published on
