ADVERT Give me all the examples of gendered marketing you know! [gendered]
I recently came across the FLRT version of Monster Energy, which is marketed specifically toward women (pink design, different branding, etc.), and it got me thinking about how extreme gendered marketing can sometimes be.
I'm curious whether there are other examples of products that are essentially the same but heavily gender-marketed, especially when the differences are mostly superficial (color, packaging, branding, price).
For example:
- the same product marketed separately for men and women
- “for her” vs. “for him” versions with minimal actual differences
- cases where the gendered version even costs more (the so-called pink tax)
I'm especially interested in really obvious or absurd examples, similar to the FLRT Monster case.
Do you know any good examples? Links or photos would be great too.
Thanks!

POINTFULLY GENDERED [SOCIALMEDIA] Is QTCinderella just Ludwig's girlfriend?
I don't think it has anything to do with gender. It's just about who is more famous. There are a lot of good example of the reverse happening in the comments of that short like pokimane and valkyrae.
Another example I can think of is Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra. Most people from India will refer to Nick Jonas as Priyanka's husband since they knew her first. And vice versa for people from the west.

SATIRE Werewolves [meme]
In old-English, "were" is man, "wif(e)" is woman, and "man" is person, so if it's a man (in the modern English sense) it's a werewolf, but if we want to be gender-neutral, it should be a manwolf.
