As we come to the end of Women's History Month, we
are looking more on how the “pink

“Generally speaking, if you
take a men's suit and a women's suit, women could pay more, and that's pretty
pervasive throughout marketing. It's just that there is such a profound value
in appearance, especially among women, that I think the marketing is making
such a push to make women actually pay more," says Gordon.
