Equality for Women

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aP4e4vGP6oc

Ellen talks about trying to order 1 and 2 pound weights and how they come in only two colors: pink and purple.  As well as pink and purple pens "Her" pens, because, as Ellen points out: we could only write with our tears or lipstick.  You know, because we always have those on hand.  There is also a car made just for women and it comes in two colors: pink and eyeliner brown.  It has a climate control system to improve skin quality and windshield to prevent wrinkles.  Floral kiss computer for women which comes in feminine pink or elegant white and has a latch opening for women with long fingernails, pre-installed with scrap booking app and daily horoscope checker.  Wow.  Really?!  Do people want to move forward with equality or backwards?  I am a woman and I don't scrapbook.  I am a woman and I don't check my horoscope.  I am a woman and I don't like the color pink.  Ugh.

Women need to boycott these products.  Uniting under a boycott of these products will let these companies know women want to be treated equally and we don't need pens just for women to write or a pink car to drive.  Want to know the color of my truck?  Black.

"I checked my horoscope and it said: Today, your progress as a woman will be set back 92 years."
