If women believe that you get what you pay for, do men believe the opposite? Regardless, I think we all take stand alone studies like this with a grain of salt. i.e. Just as I was pleased to see the studies about women being better wine tasters, I still realize that men can be supertasters too.

If I was a woman, I'd be kind of pissed at the pronouncements in this study, honestly. As for the shoes - broken on wear #3? That should be illegal! :-) Not at all – I didn't take it as curt.

I just worry whenever there is extra fodder out there to further the stereotype that women just think about labels, money, expensive things. :) It's a REALLY interesting piece of data, though, and opens up the door to a bigger examination of how cost impacts ones tastebuds. And not to be a total girl, but here's another analogy--the last time I bought a ridiculously pair of expensive shoes, they broke on wearing #3. Some of my Target brands are still around... 25+ wears in.
