It is sexist when they market a model of car towards women. The RS2 suffered form marketing that directly targeted women.
They would be dumb to market tampons to men. " Do you get frequent nose bleeds? Need a temporary plug for that oil bottle? Have a gunshot wound you need to deal with right now? Well have we got a product for you!"
