The feminist response to this Lidl Valentine Special?

I actually find it funnny that considering the limitlessness of the internet, you still couldn't find it. I mean keep scouring I'm sure there are some..but it doesn't actually change what we are talking about.

Also, the purple screwdriver? Did you actually see what it was? No right?

Well it would be weird if Aldi kept live birds. Maybe actually click your links before trying to one up people?

Purple Screwdriver

Blue Drill

Lime green selection

Yellow hammer

Maybe Aldi doesn't sell them. But then again it doesn't have infinite space.

I'd be as happy to have a pink drill as a green, blue, yellow or purple one. A bit more fun than dull black/grey.

but notice they don't actually sell any of those colours. Just pink. Because chicks dig pink.

I did buy a set of small tools - hammer, pliers, screwdriver, Stanley knife, tape - in a floral design once. But that's because Dh was a builder and I kept buying those things in a more normal colour way only for them to disappear to the site he was working on and never return.

8 years later and I still gave the flowery ones.

Meh, it's a screwdriver, not a drill. Would be handy to have to put furniture together, rather than use a manual screwdriver. I'd be as happy to have a pink drill as a green, blue, yellow or purple one. A bit more fun than dull black/grey.

It's a screwdriver as pointed out. Women proving they know little about DIY! I actually don't think coloured tools are a bad idea. Grey and black gets boring and makes it hard to find what you need.

See if it was a proper sized drill for drilling stuff I would be all over that. I love pink. It's just a shame it's so little. I need proper tough tools as I have overworked a couple of less powerful things i mean i wanted to saw off the metal and the bit said it was for metal)
Also if it was pink i could easily identify it when say my dad pinches stuff out of my tool kit.

Oh I'd like a purple staple gun that would rock.

I'm not sure about a glue gun I might get that in a blue/aqua/teal colour.

OP, it's occurred to me I've never bought a Valentine's day gift in my life and had you not posted that link I wouldn't know the
" Lidl Valentine's Day page" existed.

Were you specifically looking for Valentine's day presents ? If so, it's hardly surprising you found something ridiculous.

I like that the hand in the picture has polished nails. Just to make it clear that this is a laydeez tool and not a proper manly one. I'd probably use it for drilling my Lego friends pieces together as I struggle to get my little brain how Lego works.

I think they missed a trick though, they should have provided a set of drills in different colours. What if it didn't match my lipstick . I'll just have to stick with the big fuck off drill my Dad bought me and made sure I knew how to use. Black goes with everything dahhhlings.

Well I'm sorry but I'm just appalled at some of the ignorance and attitudes being displayed on this thread.

First off, we're talking about a screwdriver, not a drill. Pretty much the first thing you learn (in the great school of trial and error) is that you can't drive screws with a drill - too big, too heavy, too unwieldy, not precise enough control over speed and so on.

The colour - I'm not really a fan of pink, but I suppose it has the advantage that you could find it easily in a pile of black, dark grey and dark blue tools. Then again if it's meant for us ladeez then of course we would always keep it neatly packed away with all it's bits in its case, wouldn't we.

A valentines gift aimed at women? Well it wouldn't be my first choice but, to be honest, it would still be better than just about every one of the fucking valentines gifts I've ever actually received...

And there's nothing wrong with 3.6 volts. On the few occasions when I've risked a beating by sneaking my hands onto DP's 3.6v Bosch Professional, I've never found it to be lacking in power. Oh no. It's small but perfectly formed.

So for 'soft driving' indoors it probably wouldn't be too bad...

The flowery / William Morris type kits you get in National Trust shops are very pretty. If they work I don't see what's wrong with that. I don't suppose they are any use for heavy duty diy but I wouldn't be doing that anyway.

Oh I see is it specifically being aimed at women as a valentines gift ? Ahhhh right.

Not such a good idea really.

I'd quite like the flowery versions actually. Just because I happen to like them.

I wouldn't want them just because I'm a ladeeee though. I have other stuff in a regular tool kit.

it might be pretty, but 3.6v? you might get enough spin to attach a mascara brush to

It's pretty. Why not? If I wanted a screwdriver I'd buy it over the non pink version. I like pink.

I've got a cheapy flourescent green screwdriver not dissimilar to that - it gets into places that my drill can't because it's smaller.

We'll not get into the stupidity of the light that only comes on while the driver is turning though, not when you actually need it because you're upside down under a kitchen cabinet and can't for the life of you see where the screw is to dismantle it....

My DMIL bought me a flowery tool set a couple of years ago. I think it was meant well, as she'd been surprised but impressed that I was capable of constructing Ikea furniture shortly beforehand. Not sure why I can't just use the tools that are already in the toolbox though.

feminist's

Not FeminISIS, which sounds a bit like the new "feminazi"

I knew what this was before I clicked! This feminisis reaction was,

"The kind of woman who asks for a drill for valentine's day is going to want a proper drill not some lightweight pink knock off drill"

But I do like that they are trying and have tried to take it out of the male Father's Day market and maybe it's pink because everything has to be fucking pink on Valentine's Day?

My uterus would scream and crawl out of my body, and I'd grow a large and hairy pair of testicles if I tried to use a power tool that wasn't pink. #truefact

Is that a female hand or a big hairy transexual? (I'm sure that nail polish clashes)
