Public perception can function like any other externality, meaning you can offload costs onto it. This is regularly done, but it’d be foolish to claim that’s the case here without more information. As it would be foolish to assume the hand of the market is gently guiding us to a better world.
I really don’t understand what you are trying to argue here. Who has said that the hand of the market is guiding us to a better world? I believe i said that companies work in their own interests. Their own interests is to sell more to maximize profit. They have, without question, tested products with pockets for women, because they aren’t stupid. If there was a market for it, then they would sell it. Its not like copyright or trademark is stopping them like in other types of industries.
