Pretty forced but I don’t mind the video.


Also, what did any of that have to do with shaving?

The men of tomorrow can use their razors to shave their impending vaginas.

If you have the space in your bathroom, just order straight from their supplier, Dorco. It's cheaper, but they come in a larger supply.

I'm not watching another liberal hit piece video.

So let me guess-

1. All men should be assumed as potential rapists whose only goals are to subjugate defenseless women who never suspected a thing.

or


2. Here is our helpful guide to how you should act AND DEMAND OTHERS TO ACT as a man- because you are incapable of controlling yourselves. You...Bastards.



Am I close?

Death by a thousand cuts. Each little thing adds to the "message."

ETA:
This wins Facebook for today. Some random FBer commenting on an article about the ad.
quote:

So there I was, putting on my rape shoes, and practicing my sexual harassment pickup lines this morning. I just got done cyberbullying my coworkers. It was time to shave, I yelled at my wife to smile because I demand it, while pinching her butt right after she told me she didn't consent to it. Putting on the shaving cream and thinking about how I can get my son into a fight at the next BBQ, I replaced the worn Gillette brand Mach3 and began to chant "boys will be boys" as I started to shave. Then suddenly my daughter burst into the bathroom holding her phone. As I began to mansplain to her why she isn't smart enough to know my shaving time is my time she showed me the new Gillette ad. I realized how my every view and behavior I've ever held dear was wrong. I'm calling in sick at the toxic masculinity factory today and registering Democrat. Thanks Gillette, now excuse me while I help to impeach.

I don't get the point of the commercial.

Yes, bullying is bad, yes catcalling and harassing women is bad. Yes rape is bad.

That is not a result of masculinity. That's a result of people not being parented right, among other things.

Also, wtf is wrong with wrestling lol

The term "toxic masculinity" is there to piss off as many guys as possible. If you just said, "Don't be an a-hole", pretty much everyone would agree. But they had to go the extra mile and call it something that makes men in general look like shite.

Say something about "poisonous femininity" and see how far you get.
