    ...and to think, this company/corporation used to sponsor "The Friday Night Fights" when I was kid.

    From thinking fighting was at least ok, if not ennobling, but of course isn't effeminate, why it's just so butch, therefore must be banished as 'toxic'..

    How many of the sjw corporations would sponsor fighting back against national invasion...? Oh right, open borders is right up their alley as it equates to being ok with invasion.

    Toxic femininity rears it's ugly head with this bunch metro-sexuals if not outright homos......

    I was doing a project when that Gillette commercial came on the TV. Admittedly, I wasn't paying 100% attention, but I couldn't figure out what the Hell their message was.

    My experience suggests that a TV ad should identify the product, tell why it's better and plant the name of their company firmly in our minds all in just a few seconds. The commercial did none of that. As an advertisement, that was a waste of money!

    The ad is also ruffling feathers in the group that would be buying the product. Nice going!

    Well, they’ve certainly gotten their name out there.


    Honestly, I doubt it will hurt them. Think I read their stocks dipped slightly then went up a little. Of course that’s the parent company which has since doubled down.

    It likely endeared them to the man-bun crowd.

    I don't even give a shit about "conventional sex roles". Some girl wanting to become a welder on an oil rig and support her stay at home husband and her non-binary identifying children? Bully for her! But the whole theme of the ad was "if you're a white male, you're probably trash"... that I find highly objectionable.

    Also, lets not forget that P&G donates mostly to Republicans, and charges women a lot more for "feminine" products. Pandering, patronizing hypocrites.

    How dare Proctor and Gamble assign gender roles. This is 2019. Surely women and transgenders use razors as well.
