I'd never heard the term "shrink it and pink it." It's probably less common in information tech.
The market seems to be fighting this pretty well on its own though more recently. Based on convos with my wife, there are tons of products most men have never heard of that've cropped up to exclusively serve women. I'd bet many successful entrepreneurs formulaically take successful mens products and reengineer them for women, knowing the product-market-fit is already there.
Product marketing and design are completely different in Info tech

I guarantee it is to some, maybe many. The gaming industry has struggled, but is starting to succeed with women.
