Razor blades

Is there any difference between men & women's razors, apart from the colour & price? I don't want to pay extra just for a 'girlie' colour. I only shave my oxters, so can I just use a cheap disposable instead of a more pricey razor with disposable blades?
My razor is an old one so I don't think I can get blades to fit it and I'm loath to start again with another razor that I need to buy overpriced blades for.

I only buy men's Gillette blade cartridges. Been using the same handle for years. It's worked out a lot cheaper than Venus or whatever. I do my pits, and lower legs when I can be arsed.

I had a different epilator for years and it broke when it fell. As I looked to buy a new one I saw tha the rechargeable epilator were so extremely expensive. I didn't really want a corded one but I decided to give Braun lady shaver Silk epil a try Upon the recommendation of one of my doctor from this website.

I didn't feel like the price difference for a rechargeable epilator or a corded one was justified.

We all use Mach 3 razors here -much better than any ladies disposable one I’ve ever used. I do wish they made them in more different colours though so it’s easier to tell which is which. We have a silver and a red one, but would like others for the DC. They beat disposable ones hand down.
