I’m sure some snowflakes, both gay and straight, will be triggered over this. I’m also willing to bet that plenty of gay men who currently shave with Nivea products will continue to do so, and won’t let this announcement affect their lives at all.

Nivea makes some really good aftershave balm (cheap too). I may have to try some of their other products now.

Its funny to watch these companies play on people's emotions.

It was a good move by Gillette to do the whole gay campaign thing because they have been losing customers because of companies like $1 shaving club, etc. So Gillette had to do something to get people talking about their company while targeting a specific group.

They came out with the whole gay thing. That puts customers in 3 different groups, those who will start using it because of their stance on gay people, those who will stop using it because of their stance on gay people and then those who use their products who really don't care.

So they keep everyone who don't care, they will lose those who haven't gone to the other new razor companies yet, but then you have gay people and people who support gay people who will become customers simply because they support gay people. That more than likely outweighed the number of people that would stop using them.

That opens up a new target audience. People who were so against Gillette supporting gay people that they stopped using them.. So if they felt that strong about it to stop using Gillette, then they are likely to start using a product that goes against what Gillette supported.

So what better way to be known as a company that doesn't support gay people? It's not like they can make a commercial with a man and woman and send the message they are anti-gay, because no one will think nothing of it, so they make it a news story.

Do you think these companies really give a shite about all of this? If it would be more profitable to show support to men with huge swinging dicks, thats who they will support.

I don’t know. Being anti gay is a Scarlet letter in today’s America.

Not to many men, black and white, whether or not they admit it.

Counter cultural virtue signaling.

It’s hard to make an ad expressing your support of traditional masculinity. So this will work instead.

No, I read lots of your posts. I generally skip the novels. I’m trying to send you an indirect message to be more concise.

You are pretty much wasting your time. I will post what I want, how I want whenever I want. Someone telling trying to "send me a message" isn't going to influence me.
