[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH here:  I thought it was lame, insulting, and will backfire.  Whatever market research says about who does the shopping, I find it very hard to believe men don’t have or express preferences about shaving items, which are reasonably personal, and I suspect this is going to hurt Gillette more than it helps.  Woke Capital is tiresome and is due a comeuppance. We shall see, the reaction will be interesting.  [/quote]

What about it did you find insulting? Genuinely? To me it seemed very pro man, just pro good man. [/quote]

Replace “man” in your comment with any other group of people and see how it sounds to your ear.  [/quote]

NP.  Feminist isn't a compliment.  Neither is toxic masculinity.  "The best a man can get" isn't an insult.[/quote]

“Hey, men, it’s important you are one of the good ones, not one of the bad ones, and you need reminding of this....”

“Hey, African Americans.....”

“Hey, Jews.....”

“Hey Muslims.......”

If you can’t hear the implicit negativity, that’s fine, we just interpret the commercial differently.  No surprise.  But my point is that there are lots of men who do, even some of the good ones.  They will be less likely to buy Gillette.  Will they make it up from somewhere else?  Maybe.
