P1 nailed it. We blow it on women

Also, for those women that menstruate, the devices and materials for that are pretty expensive. Optional things are beauty products, but only to a certain degree. Some groups of women have to pay much more for certain things as well, just because of less access

You might, but you also probably aren't putting out in that situation. We're blowing it on the women that do, stupidly.

Our business clothes are cheaper, but more variety is expected. Our casual clothing is NOT cheaper, it's much more expensive, and noticably lower quality.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I think the men's suits even it out. Most guys work with will casually spend 800-1000 on a suit. I def don't spend that much on a suit πŸ™ˆ

I disagree. I don't wear a lot of make up. Also I feel our clothes are cheaper than guys'. :-)

Sexist fake news from πŸ™‹πŸ .

If you are worried that you aren't saving enough, perhaps you should examine your budget, reduce costs and/or change to less expensive products/services.

I know, for example, that I don't save as much as some of my peers because I choose to pay higher rent to live in a more secure building for a sense of safety.

PE may be different. I'm talking about us standard issue consultants. Nothing wrong with expensive brands, just saying I've never seen it as a norm or even requisite... just people who wants others to observe how fancy/expensive their clothes are.

Stop giving me health lessons lol. I am a woman and understand all of this. All I'm saying is why point out the obvious. Pads are for menstruation...no duh. Those who dont menstruate don't buy them?? Gasp! Such a surprise. People with cold hands spend money on gloves. Groundbreaking.

In addition to their clothes costing more, I think guys have more expensive hobbies. Like my husband always had a game console and the latest games, a motorcycle, his photography equipment, snowboarding gear and annual passes, etc. My only hobby is food and travel and a lot of that gets covered by my job.

Hello!
I’m a senior graphic designer with close to a decade in the industry with some agency experience. I’m wanting to dive into more of a surface pattern design role and wanted to know if anyone knows or has any leads for any hybrid roles in/surrounding Orange County, CA or fully remote! I have a portfolio that I can share as well.

I really don’t see many of these on linked in so I figured it’s best to speak to someone who works with or is in this type of role

Thank you!!
