NeuralLaxative 08/14/19 9:42:06 AM #54:	So there I was, putting on my molesting 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 Gillette ad. I realized how 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.

DoubleDare 08/14/19 10:54:10 AM #89:	Guys don't typically like being told how to act. I'm already being the best a man can be, by not buying Gillette products (Which I already was doing before this ad) Also do note it's mostly only white males doing the "toxic" stuff in the commercial. It originally was going to have a rap video on the tv with rappers, but they took it out. --- On Your Mark...Get Set........GO!!!!!! <cite>DoubleDare posted [p:926053222] in Why did pe...

TwoDoorPunkCab posted... implying all men are scum to women It didnt It was a message addressed at all men about how we need to get better. Youre implying that all men practice toxic masculine behavior. If you practice toxic masculinity and you were triggered then it served its purpose. I'm not implying that. I'm implying that repeatedly in the commercial the message was addressed to all men. It wasn't "Is this the best some men can be?" It was "Is this the best a man can be?" The old black guy staring in the mirror, for example: Was the commercial arguing he was practicing toxic masculinity? No Was the commercial suggesting he like all men need to take a hard look at themselves in the mirror? Yes The whole series of grilling men saying "boys will be boys" sole point was to treat all or at least most men as identical "toxic men". The commercial generalized negatively about all or at least most men and it's pretty obvious that it did. They even acknowledge that what they were doing was partially to troll so as to get more controversy and thus more attention. It's a company pimping wokeness and insulting all men to get more attention, and people who defend it are playing right into their hands. What's wrong with being the type of men that the commercial promoted? Last time I checked, bullying, sexual harassment, and violence weren't good or healthy habits to practice in a civilized society.
