I use that other mail order one... forget the name offhand. Seems to give me a decent shave. I will not have Gillette products in my house again, that's for sure.

It's good to see on YouTube that men's awareness is growing by leaps and bounds and this kind of thing isn't met with passive acceptance anymore.
What exactly is wrong with the video? I wasn't persuaded in any direction or "touched" in any sense by it, but you guys seem to be revolted. So I'm just curious to understand what the big deal is, what is it I didn't see?

An advert inspired by the feminine imperative meant to subjugate men by getting women across the board on the same bandwagon - brainwashing their own son's into weak pvssies.

Gillette needs to be punished !

Damn... the comments on youtube are killing the ads.... and posters are complaining that Gillette or Youtube is deleting the comments.

In my opinion, this Ad had nothing to do with Razors lol

Guy stops 2 boys who are clearly play wrestling. That is natural masculine behavior by boys. They will grow up weak.

Guys stop friends from simple flirting.

There is nothing wrong with whistling.

I could go on.

Wow! Gillette can go fvck themselves! Men is taking waaaay more sh!t than we deserve. I'm growing increasingly annoyed by the feminists who so obviously blame men for everything. Nobody ever makes an ad campaign out of how absolutely abusive women can be, nobody gives a fvck about that.

Feminism is one of many cancers of society.

They deleted like 48,000 negative comments...

The desperation now is in full swing to contain the blowback and change the narrative into one where they get more support - by deceitfully manipulating the numbers.

We might be a few here but if everyone on SoSuave do their part in boycotting their products and actively spread the word around - it will have a more cohesive effect and snowball on the rest of the manosphere.

Gillette must not be allowed to go about unchallenged and shape young boys into grown up pvssies.

I for one will boycott them and likewise seek to influence friends and acquaintances to do the same.

How about you ?

It's an Ad to get Women to buy Gillette razors for themselve, boy, men, hubby (Brilliant)

They just insulted the Men on the way by going full social justice warrior (and not talking about razor)

All this to increase market shares by targetting the ladies

It victimizes women and paint men as offenders with a very wide brush. One thing I reacted to in particular was that one guy who eyed a woman passing by and the other man holding him back, as if eyeing women is bad. It doesn't persuade you or anyone on this forum because we're a bit more enlightened. But you should know that there's plenty of men out there yet unaware of what's actually fair and who feel intimidated by stuff like this, to the point they will have huge struggles even just approaching a woman in fear of being the bad guy.

I'm against sexual harassment, but modern feminism paint harassment as just even trying to talk to talk to a woman out of sexual or romantic interests. That is completely unacceptable as it is only technically harassment if you continue after the woman shows her disinterest in the approach and it should be obvious that continued persistence is just bothering her. Basically it's only harassment when a guy doesn't respect a rejection, not if he tries the first couple times as they paint it.

We might be a few here but if everyone on SoSuave do their part in boycotting their products and actively spread the word around - it will have a more cohesive effect and snowball on the rest of the manosphere.
I honestly think most people, even outside of the manosphere are waking up to how crazy and how this has gone too far. For every time something like this comes out it seems that the resistance against it grows among reasonable people, including women (especially those liking the attention from men). It's not problematic only for men, even though it it has the greatest negative impact on us. I think we have less and less cause for genuine worry regarding stuff like this, but we do need to keep up the pressure against it.

I think feminist statements like these receive support only from a diminishing minority.

Who do you think should decide what behaviors are appropriate for you to engage in?
You mean it's not my razor company?

Dollar Shave Club?
We're going to have "Male Power" slogans pretty soon!
Yes, Dollar Shave Club. I only have to shave every other day at most, and these blades do the trick for me.

I am going to subscribe to the Dollar shave club too!

Dollar Shave Club is owned by Unilever since 2016.
Unilever paid 1 billions USD in cash for it!

Took 2 guys 5 years to make 1 billions USD (minus shares sharing, debt, expense and taxes.... Likely 300 millions each!)

I wonder who at Gillette thought it was a good idea to criticize and preach at their customer base?

I'm watching the bimbos on "The View" talk about this ad like it's some revolutionary thought provoking hyper woke commercial that should he given an Oscar.

Hahah America ... Thank god for Trump or we would ALL be PUZZIES on tv

Harry's is no better
Looks like Harry's is out. What is up with razor companies and SWJs? No way that person writing their twitter feed is a dude. They're actually aghast that there is a day for men. I mean I don't care if we get a day or not, but to actually be shocked at the idea?
