Thats why we made Cards Against    Humanity for Her. Its trendy, stylish, and easy to understand.    And its pink.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    While the pink set is a joke, its    clever commentary on the \"pink    tax \" that    women often face. The \"pink tax\" is a phenomenon where things    like personal care items and clothing marketed towards women    will sometimes cost as much as 7%    more  than the    same products for men.  <\/p>\n<p>    Bane told Business Insider that    the \"For Her\" set is a \"very stupid\" idea and that she doubts    that people will actually buy the women't edition.      <\/p>\n<p>    \"Women don't fall for gimmicks,    especially not gimmicks as stupid as this one,\" she said.       <\/p>\n<p>    However, in case the \"For Her\" set has    as much success as Cards Against Humanity's     2014 Black    Friday deal of a box of \"bullsh-t\" (a literal box of poop,)     which ended up    selling 30,000 at $6 a pop, the company has committed to giving    the profits from the women's edition to Emily's List, a PAC    devoted to helping more Democratic women get elected to public    office.   <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read the rest here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/4853479\/cards-against-humanity-pink\/\" title=\"Cards Against Humanity Cleverly Mocks Discrimination With Pricey Pink 'For Her' Game - TIME\">Cards Against Humanity Cleverly Mocks Discrimination With Pricey Pink 'For Her' Game - TIME<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Courtesy of Cards Against Humanity Cards Against Humanity has \"released\" a new edition of their popular, if politically incorrect game, but this time, it's just for women.
