If you identify as male do NOT use this product. The "for her" label is not just a gimmick exploiting archaic gender constructs, it's a WARNING. Even if you're a boy who likes pastels and glitter (which really I don't see why you shouldn't, what kind of moron thinks that only girls would like that kind of thing? seems kind of backwards to me) this pen is NOT for you. I don't know why they didn't put a clearer warning on the label, they really should have because if you are a boy and use this pen you put yourself at great risk. My little brother turned into a unicorn after I lent him one, and my friend told me that a boy in her class grew fairy wings in the middle of a test. I'm serious, guys, be careful, these really are just "for her"! BIC, please, recall this product until you've made the warning more explicit to avoid more tragedy!!!
I purchased a pack of Bic For Her pens and I was concerned there was no warning label on the package. I made the mistake of keeping my For Her pens next to my husband's pens, and pretty soon I noticed they started skipping periods. A short time later, I had more pens! This could be problematic (or, it could be the last pen purchase I make), especially if you don't keep the caps on the pens during storage. Maybe it's time we start talking abstinence education for our writing utensils, because these caps are rather difficult for my Lady Brain and Lady Hands to manipulate.
Finally! For years I've had to rely on pencils, or at worst, a twig and some drops of my feminine blood to write down recipes (the only thing a lady should be writing ever). I had despaired of ever being able to write down said recipes in a permanent manner, though my men-folk assured me that I "shouldn't worry yer pretty little head". But, AT LAST! Bic, the great liberator, has released a womanly pen that my gentle baby hands can use without fear of unlady-like callouses and bruises. Thank you, Bic!
As a female I've spent my whole life having to scratch all written messages into the kitchen table with my perfectly manicured nails between cooking meals and making clothes. Finally a writing utensil suited for my delicate hands![DOUBLEPOST=1347408892][/DOUBLEPOST] That review made me cry from laughter ;D
Consider the fact that maybe it’s not supposed to be a joke. Maybe women like 'for her' pens and hate being discriminated against because of the dark, masculine colors of normal pens. Women should be able to use whatever they want without being laughed at.
