You've seen the hilarity around Bic's "Pens for Her" line, yes? Bic issued a line of pens which are: "Designed to fit comfortably in a womans [sic] hand" and have an "Attractive barrel design available in pink and purple".
Amazon reviewers went to town and it is amusing. Comments like "Where do the batteries go?" and "It turned me gay" abound.
My favourite comment is the one where someone says "They'll cost 2/3 as much as man pens, right?"
Curious, I clicked through to "Bic Cristal for Her," which comes in colours other than pink and purple but is still slim and light to fit into your delicate lady hands.
This pen "Writes up to 2x more than other ball pens," which sounds about right.
It also costs £6.31 for 20. 20 regular (men's) Cristal pens cost £2.80.
