Abstract/Description

Abstract: The pink tax is the extra amount the average woman is charged for basic products or services. Even though these products contain the same ingredients as those marketed to men, there is a considerable difference in the amount women are paying. This tax is seen on personal care products, children toys, and auto-insurance.
