A recent study conducted by the NYC Department of Consumer Affairs looked at 800 different products and found that many of those marketed for women or girls cost, on average, 7% more than those marketed for men or boys. Although current laws in California ban gender discrimination on pricing for services, SB899 would have extended that by including products, and would have brought California one step closer to ending gender discrimination.
