One day if you're unlucky enough to be falsely accused of the very shite they talk about in the video, you'll come to understand the problem with the message in that video.

Exactly.

"Not all immigrants"
"Not all Muslims"
"Not all blacks"

"ALL MEN" = ok generalization

Gillette, the best a MtF tranny can geeet.

It’s funny how libs used to hate big business, but mega corps have learned that all will be forgiven as long as they worship at the alter of aids. Nike chains Malaysian slave girls to her sewing machine? Not a problem because they care about black bodies and are not bigoted Nazis.

Thank you Gillette for speaking out against toxic masculinity and putting problematic misogynists in their place.

did you watch the commercial?


Yes, it outright claimed that up until this point "The best a man can get" has been sexual harassment, violence, bullying, sexism, etc.

Tell me, is that the *best* you think men have done? Like, if the male gender was getting together to build a resume, those are the best accomplishments men could lay claim too?

Look in the description of that video...

"Bullying. Harassment. Is this the best a man can get?"

Why even ask that question? There are millions of men that do better.

Thankfully I have a daughter. I feel sorry for some of you guys who have to try and raise a son in this sort of environment.

That commercial was really dumb, on multiple levels. I did get a kick out of the boys will be boys part. Do they really think that dad's sit around while their kids are throwing punches at each other? I get roughhousing and all that being "boys will be boys" but their example was as dumb as their entire commercial. Dad's aren't sitting at a neighborhood bbq and just watching their 8 year old sons just punch each other in the face


It is no different than any racial stereotype that validates racism.

And I think that ad disappears quickly...very quickly. From the comments on the youtube page, and the fact that their live chat and phones are busy, I'd say they are hearing it...

People are fricking tired of finding politics in everything...

How? As an overall group, how are men failing? What can ALL OF US do better? I, for one, do pretty damn good. Not sure about you, but I don't really feel the need to "do better."

How does one get to be such a cuck?


It happens naturally.

You have to realize that these people have lost their women for years. After a while, it’s easier to pretend they prefer the cuck lifestyle.

Well, a member if the US Senate said that all men are responsible for the actions of all other men. That's insanely dangerous but no one seems to care that she impugned 100 million citizens in a few words.

She then insisted that men shut up and stand up, whatever that's supposed to mean

Notice how it's all white men who are doing bad.... ...and the men of color step in to stop them?

This is fricking pathetic.

I saw that too.

The gay commercials seem to be ramping up too.

Not really. This is another case of basing marketing heavily on social media research. It's not an accurate cross section of the population.
