Does women’s laxative have no effect on men? 🤔
I imagine if it’s not just marketing it’d be a slightly lower dose to account for differences in average body mass
A chemist walks into the store he owns… and he sees a woman, leaning up against a wall near the counter.
“What’s wrong with her?” he asks his assistant.
"She was sneezing and needed allergy medicine, " explains the assistant, “but I couldn’t find any, so I sold her a bottle of laxatives instead.”
“WHAT?” bellows the chemist. “You can’t treat allergies with laxatives!!!”
“Of course you can,” replies the assistant, pointing at the woman. “Look at her, she’s too scared to sneeze now!”
You know how you sometimes walk into a public bathroom and just mutter “what the hell” while walking slowly backward? That’s how those whoopsie doodles happen.
Why is there a specific women’s laxative?
✨targeted marketing✨
(It’s the exact same price and active ingredients, just pink)
It’s the “gentle variation?”
My wife will be the first to say that if she is constipated, she doesn’t want “gentle variation”. She wants a Niagara Falls.
I took this as a guy cause there was nothing left in the house and I had a period
Was it brown?
No the bottle is white but the tablets are pink. Honestly I thought it was Pepto.
Is there an actual medical reason to have different laxatives for men and women, or is this a weird marketing thing?
I’m not a doctor, but maybe it’s to make sure it’s safe for someone who is (or may be) pregnant?
Could also just be marketing too of course.
That’d be my guess, too. Probably lowers the risk of women pooping out the baby before they want to.
I’d guess this is probably the only plausible reason, other than marketing bs.
Women don’t poo
Is that why poor wife gets grumpy? Because she isn’t pooping?
Only one way to find out
Mag citrate here we come!
They do now.
Hence the laxatives
MAXIMUM STRENGTH SHIT LIQUIFIER for girls!
It’s pink. For girls.
“Strong enough for a man, but pH balanced for a woman.”
Nah, I don’t think it’ll work on a man because it’s for women.

I see we are making pointlessly gendered laxatives now.
pink tax
I refuse to use a pill bottle labeled for women. Not because of any fear of using women’s products, but because of the pink tax. I bet that bottle costs a whole dollar more than a generic laxative.
Just swap the contents, so if you you accidentally grab the wrong bottle, you’ll still be taking what you wanted
Nah, mix them together in the same bottle. You won’t sneeze while you’re unconscious and shitting the bed
My wife was making banana bread and a similar disaster was waiting to happen as the Cinnamon and Cumin are sold in nearly identical-looking containers. The inevitable happened and we ended up with banana bread that tasted like it was seasoned with taco seasoning!
When I was a kid I made dinner and used dessicated coconut instead of breadcrumbs in the meatballs by mistake
We had that happen with cinnamon and ginger. They had both almost the same colored packaging and the color of the spice itself also didn’t differ a lot. We needed ginger for the recipe and ended up with cinnamon. It wasn’t completely ruined, but it was more like something to get it over with while eating instead of enjoying it.
Was it awful?
They were surprisingly edible. Honestly the chocolate chips provided the needed reprieve from the cumin, but we did end up tossing about half of it after a week of nibbling at it and laughing anew about the mistake
Can’t complain about allergies while shitting your guts out
Watch me edit wait shit
Lemmy: What about men’s laxative?!!! 😡
same stuff, but comes in a blue bottle 😆
Black, shiny label with a big X in the name.
XTREME SHIT LIQUIFIER! Move over Tub Girl and make way for TUB MAN!
*Formerly known as Shitter
The tablets are also beef and leather flavored.
Don’t forget about the booze+wood combo!
It smells like cologne mixed with farts and peppermint, a scent called BEAR FISTER so you don’t feel insecure in your masculinity while swallowing.
Looks like nuclear reactor pellets
and cheaper
And reeks like a dead dear’s behind, because apparently men like to stink.
Edit: to be clear, I am man, I hate how companies want to make me stink.
And yet you’re literally on Lemmy and that literally isn’t happening. There are a lot of people making fun of the pointless gender divide though.
I’m sorry you didn’t like my silly joke 😔
Well I was kinda wondering what the difference is tbh. Laxative is laxative, surely.
Barbed wire flavor
Men just drink hot sauce from a jar.
Men are content to be full of shit.
