Women have always been underestimated and devalued. When we do succeed and beat the odds, we are harassed or ridiculed. Because of this, I sadly say that this world is indeed a man’s world. One of the main things that makes our world a man’s world and not an equal human world is the blatant disregard for women’s personal needs in both a physical and mental sense.

There’s a lot of contributing factors leading to the inequality of women, but one of the main ones is demonstrated in commercialized retail items made in bulk, specifically targeting towards women. By rejecting women’s needs and increasing stress on their personal financial struggles, large corporations are bleeding women dry. This phenomenon is known as the pink tax.
