Title: Gillette Slits Its Own Throat
Post by: Solar on January 15, 2019, 07:01:45 AM
Fuck Proctor and Gamble owners of Gillette!
They claim Masculinity is Toxic, that somehow real men need to be shamed into becoming manbun wearing snowflakes.
Well I have news for you Fuckin Commies,, even feminist women hate snowflakes, all women want a masculine man, and if they don't, they are the ones with issues.
When women need a hero, do they yell for a SWJ? Hell no! They hope a big strong man arrives to save them.

Here's the bullshit P&G is pushing.

"This is an important conversation happening, and as a company that encourages men to be their best, we feel compelled to both address it and take action of our own," said Pankaj Bhalla, Gillette brand director for North America, in an email to the WSJ. "We are taking a realistic look at what's happening today, and aiming to inspire change by acknowledging that the old saying 'Boys Will Be Boys' is not an excuse. We want to hold ourselves to a higher standard, and hope all the men we serve will come along on that journey to find our 'best' together."

I think after the fallout P&G gets for this Marxist bullshit, all Corps will take notice due to the loss they suffer.
This piece says it all.

Gillette's new 'toxic masculinity' ad has company losing lifetime customers in droves


While the advertisement appears at first glance to be promoting positive behavior, a closer inspection reveals that it reeks of Marxist-styled "social justice" concepts, including "toxic masculinity."

Far-leftists activists concocted the misandrist term "toxic masculinity" in an attempt to pathologize the otherwise normal behavior observed among men, including their inclination toward protecting women and children, maintaining stoicism during dark times and being fearless leaders.

To the left, these age-old attributes of men represent anomalies that need to be stamped out of society. And judging by Gillette's latest rhetoric, the personal care products brand believes similarly.

"From today on, we pledge to actively challenge the stereotypes and expectations of what it means to be a man everywhere you see Gillette," the brand announced on its website.

This mentality aligns perfectly with the left's vision of transforming the notion of masculinity from one centered on strength and perseverance to one based on men being emotionally fragile wimps who may or may not enjoy prancing about like a little girl.

It's not just Gaylette, it's all P&G products. They recently purchased Gillette and in no time destroyed the brand.
For me it was the final straw, they've been pushing a leftist agenda for decades and I'm done.
I told the wife, no more, we'll search diligently to find other products, and if there isn't any, we either do without, or make our own.

Liberal males may or may not shave according to their designation. It's too complicated to break down the stats.

Liberal females do not shave.

SHOCK: The Gillette toxic masculinity video created by feminist ad executives


~Snipped~
Not having learned the lesson of companies wading into the waters of politically correct activism and suffering commercially as a result (aka Dick's Sporting Goods, The NFL, Target, ESPN, etc.) the razor maker Gillette inserted itself into the public discourse this week.

To date their video has been viewed 20 million times on YouTube, and has received twice as many negative votes as positive. This follows the trend on social media and elsewhere of many suggesting the company fell prey to feminist dogma. Well that has become revealed to be more than true.

Little Black Book
@LBBOnline
.@Gillette takes aim at toxic masculinity in bold, brilliant campaign by @GreyNewYork and Somesuch's Kim Gehrig.https://bit.ly/2spztAZ

12:30 AM - Jan 15, 2019
See Little Black Book's other Tweets

The razor brand, in an effort to appeal to its voluminous male customer base, turned its advertising over to a female director named Kim Gehrig, and an ad agency with a resume of feminist commercial spots.

The first tip-off was a clip appearance of Ana Kasparian, from the Young Turks, giving commentary on sexual harassment. This was followed by imagery meant to lecture men on proper social behavior. little mystery why men may take a negative reaction from being called overtly violent and sexist.

Well, this dissipates any lingering mystery. If the lecturing commercial spot felt like a scornful feminist lecture, it is due to the fact that the company turned the reins over to a group of feminist executives. And this was not by accident.

According to The Daily Mail, the British ad executives were selected after Proctor & Gamble (parent company of Gillette) commissioned Gehrig through a non-profit outfit called Free The Bid, which assists in getting work for female, and non-white, commercial directors. So almost a version of advertising affirmative action.

Meanwhile, as the company seeks to upset its core customer base, they have also unintentionally drawn fire from the female audience. The backlash has included women regarding the razors for women being insulting not only because of the colors, but also the pricing.

It seems Gillette prices the women's line higher than their standard razors of comparable design.

I can't stand it when anyone tries to subtly tell me what to believe.  Often it's subliminal, especially in Hollywood. In Star Trek, the Voyage Home, there's several strange comments.  Spock makes an anti nuclear comment, strange because he was killed earlier by a fusion reactor.  In one of the Die Hard movies, there's a stop apartheid sign in the background. You know I don't support apartheid in South Africa, but I don't need Hollywood to tell me that.  It's so presumptuous. They're saying I'm too stupid to think for myself. I want to read about political issues in appropriate places, like a newspaper or books on a subject, not movies or commercials.

Not to shocking an add that in it of itself is toxic was created by some feminists. Even so, didn't they go to school for marketing? Even myself who took one marketing class in high school knows you don't alienate your base. Aside from that the add just doesn't make any sense.

Until I turned off the TV decades ago, that was my daily diet, being force fed a diet of man hating liberalism.
This makes it fun to see it being exposed for what it is, a Marxist culture killing movement that despises men.
