I guess PG let Gillette get taken over by a bunch of penis-hating hairy-legged radical feminazis and flaming dykes, eh?

Didn't they try it in front of a focus group???
BTW I prefer the old ads.

"We want to appeal to the modern man," Gillette spokesperson Beau Petite said. "So we're offering this extremely manly, attractive side bag for a limited time if you buy one of our really manly razor products." Petite said the side bags have many great uses. "You can store a little concealer or blush for an afternoon touch-up, your coin purse, a pair of spherical objects. Whatever you want."
Yeah...lemme fix that...
"We want to appeal to the beta males and homosexuals," Gillette spokesperson Beau Petite said. "So we're offering this extremely homo-centric, K-mart side bag for a limited time if you buy one of our really gaytastic razor products." Petite said the side bags have many great uses. "You can store a little concealer or blush for an afternoon touch-up, your coin purse, a pair of spherical objects, buttplugs, manpons, nut-sack pacifiers. Whatever you want."
And the great re-think?
Gillette's promotion reportedly launched with a whimper, as few men wanted the "manly side bags" for some reason. The company has said it is regrouping and considering offering a free man bun hair tie with every purchase instead.
Lemme guess...phallic-shaped soy boy bun tie?

OMG!!! I have a beard! I'm consumed by toxic masculinity! ::ohno::

I have never figured out why people think a faceless corporation (which is not a person) needs to take a stand or even have an opinion on any social issue. How could it? Why would it need too? It's only going to piss off customers.
If anything a public stock company that is no longer in the control of its founder should never dip its toe in any issue outside of business climate that affects itself.
That's why we get this tone deaf crap.
-
They aren't tone deaf...they get dhimmi/prog/crony-capitalist schmucks running things...they don't care what the flotsam thinks, especially in backwaters and fly-over country...they've judged all such people enemies and not due the slightest consideration. The only appropriate response is to respond in-kind...and with some extra stink on it when possible.
That they are willing to alienate people and erode their long-term economic viability is as clear an indicator as any that a crony oligarch is calling the shots.
Eff 'em. Let them die.

Editor’s note: The following was written by Ilan Srulovicz, the CEO and founder of Egard Watch Company, explaining why his company produced an ad to counter Gillette’s recent commercial on masculinity.
The story behind making the video is interesting. I made the ad completely alone. The voice in the video is mine and the editing is my own.
I was told by most people around me and in my company that making this video was a terrible idea and could not only hurt my brand but me personally as the CEO.
I used my personal funds on the video because I was worried about the backlash.
The main feedback was, “This will draw attention away from women’s issues,” “The political climate right now won’t support a film like this,” “Ask yourself why no other company is doing it,” etc.
I considered releasing it anonymously but after some thought, I realized an individual releasing the message wasn’t going to have the same impact as a company doing it. I decided to risk it and post the video
I think what put me over the top is a quote I heard that says all actions come out of either love or fear. Releasing it anonymously felt like fear. Putting my company on the line for a message I believe in felt like love.
I went with love.
I created the video for a few reasons. I believe the statistics in the video are widely ignored or dismissed. I have tried to bring light to them myself in the past and had a difficult time having them acknowledged as an issue.
The Gillette ad rubbed me the wrong way. I, like the overwhelming majority of men, am absolutely disgusted by sexual assault, rape, bullying, so why throw it in my face as if my “gender” as a whole is toxic? Using terms like “toxic masculinity” is using too broad a stroke to address specific issues — issues which I agree very much need to be addressed, especially after all the crazy stuff we’ve seen in Hollywood.
I am not against Gillette trying to start a conversation about assault, but I do have an issue with how they went about it.
Masculinity can be a beautiful thing, just like femininity. We need to start celebrating each other, not tearing each other down
I also feel that suffering needs to stop being a competition. It shouldn’t be “women vs men.” There are areas where men have it terrible in society. It’s OK to look at those areas and acknowledge it, while also understanding that women have it terrible in other aspects of society. Neither one has to dismiss the other.
We are so polarized. It’s all about “taking sides.” I am guilty of it myself because it’s all we are fed all day long, but I don’t want to be a part of that anymore. None of us, no gender or race, has exclusivity on being terrible or wonderful. Individuality is the measure of a person, not the “identity” or “category” to which you belong.
I can’t blame Gillette for their ad because that message is the norm. It has become pervasive. I can even understand how they believed full well this ad was a great idea and would drive tons of sales. Maybe it will in the end with all the attention it received. We have become so obsessed with defining each other based on these factors that we no longer even communicate properly.
My belief is that if you want to “make men better,” as Gillette claims it wants to do, then the best way to do that is to show the best of us, not the worst. When I see a man risking his life running into a burning building, it makes me want to be better. When I see a father who will stand by his kids no matter what, it makes me want to be better. When I see a soldier putting everything on the line to preserve my freedom, I want to be better. That’s what a man is to me and they represent a far greater majority of men than what Gillette portrayed a man to be.
I don’t feel I want to be better when an ad starts off with “toxic masculinity” or a bunch of boys bullying each other and portraying men as caricatures of sexual deviants. I simply close off.
Call me triggered, say I “missed the point” but it was my visceral response to seeing it.
Lift me up if you want to see a change in me, don’t tear me down. These are the messages companies need to be showing and celebrating if they really care about change.
I really hope that the video I made gets to a point where it draws enough attention that larger companies start realizing there is a market in promoting positive messages for men.
I feel the same for women as well. I strongly believe that ads celebrating women and empowering women are both beautiful and necessary. It’s not just men who feel this way about what’s going on and many women have reached out to express the importance of positive messages for their kids, husbands, fathers, etc.
I wish the video I made was the norm from companies, not the exception.

Yeah, I find it a bit disheartening when good people have to go through internal gymnastics over something that should be common sense and reasonable...and I worry in the context of the greater war front if it is too little too late...but then my fall back position is to do what is right regardless even if all it achieves is putting a marker down that says "no more" and "you we're duly notified".

You left out the trannies. Seriously, they were also featured in the ads.
I do not understand this advertising. Usually the product ads imply that if you use our product you will be like the people in the ads or some such. If you drink our expensive booze you will have beautiful women throwing themselves at you.

False advertising though . . . as she uses a WeedWacker on the legs . . .

Heard a great sermon this morning @ church. It wasn't about culture, per se (The title was "All Things: Life & Family" - scripture reference Colossians 1: 19-20 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=col+1%3A19-20&version=NKJV)).
As an aside, the pastor mentioned that "we hear a lot about 'Toxic Masculinity' - but friends, there is NO toxicity in masculinity - but there IS toxicity in sin - wherever it's found (and it's found everywhere): masculinity, feminism, politics, the news cycle, etc."
Sin makes all things toxic (in certain instances - most men I know, know how to keep their masculinity in check).
I let him know I appreciated his remarks. ;)

The left continues to define "sophistication" by the amount of perversion one can assimilate, approve of & rebrand as "normal".
Yet their sophistication leads to higher levels of depression, cognitive dissonance, disease (AIDS), suicide & a totally screwed up emerging generation.

I'm not going to post it here. I even blocked someone I'm following on Twitter for re-tweeting it.
Sprite (a Coke product) has a "Pride/Trans" ad that is so revolting, it almost makes me think that Pepsi posted it as a secret weapon against a competitor.
I think Gillette lost sales due to their blunder. If so, Sprite should go completely out of business.

One vignette show a mother applying eye-liner to her son's eyes, before the parade.
Another shows grandma helping her grandson to look like a drag queen, complete with a silver bikini and a blue-haired wig.
Yet another shows two teenage lesbians being met approvingly at one of their family homes by a younger brother and sister ,who lovingly give them a rainbow flag with a big heart painted in the middle.
Astonishingly, one vignette even shows a young girl in the highly dangerous practice of binding her chest, before going to the march. Her sister (or, female friend) actually tightens the binding.
And, in the final vignette of the video, a mother and father watch wistfully as their young teenage son and his boyfriend disappear, walking hand-in-hand, into the crowd at the march. And, as the father looks on, these words appear on the screen: "Orgullo: Lo que sentis cuando alguien que queres elige ser feliz." Or, in English: "Pride: what you feel when someone you love chooses to be happy."
That's supposed to make me want to buy their brand of sugared water? ::thinking::
