The 10th source "Why the tampon tax is here to stay - for a while at least", which is from a news broadcasting website, seems unreliable because it is biased towards ending the tampon tax. The article is also talking about the tampon tax in the UK, not the US. Dit011 ( talk) 20:26, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Since the consumption tax refers to the tampon tax, can it fit under the term personal care products? It also does not need to mention the tampon tax in other countries because this article is only about the gender-based price disparities in the US. Dit011 ( talk) 20:34, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
What is the significance of the study conducted by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs? Should mention the conclusion of these studies instead of just mentioning that there are studies about the prices in personal care products and services.
In the personal care products, it can mention the "pink tax."

What is the significance of having salon-quality hair styling tools at home? Dit011 ( talk) 20:41, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Include the court cases that have ruled against gender-based pricing. Dit011 ( talk) 20:48, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
This page is factually inaccurate. One part of the price difference is because women are willing to pay more for things that are marketed to them [1]. The other part is that women's personal care products cost more because they use different ingredients [2]. I was going to edit this page myself, however I noticed that it part of some class project, so I will leave it be in the hopes that the assigned editors can keep these points in mind while editing.

This seems ridiculous—e.g., if white men paid $25,000 for a car, then black women paid $75,000 for it? The source is behind a paywall at JSTOR, so I couldn’t check what the source actually says. Loraof ( talk)
