Boycott Gillette

[Ranger]

A watch company made their own video.

I like watches. I’m getting one of these watches.
Not that I need another one. Lol

P!SS OFF, GILLETTE!

I don't know where their home headquarters are, but protesters should start picketing the place 24/7.

If their corporate is stupid enough to buy extremely gender biased advertising, protesters won’t increase their intelligence level…

The only thing that works is severe revenue decrease. Shareholders don’t like that.

they are owned by Proctor and Gamble.

I'd really like to read that their stock, sales, and profits have plummeted.

they are owned by Proctor and Gamble.

Who are they? A couple of feminists?!

The continued and perpetual wussification of our planet...

Damn, that's a lot of brands. I use a few of those, several even.

Yeah, just bought Old Spice day before the commercial.

I like their deodorants. I'm not sure I can avoid all the P&G products, maybe it's best to keep the focus on Gillette. It may not even dawn on them why their antiperspirant sales are down (even if we could optimistically make a dent in them).

 

[wifehunter]

Maybe, Gillette is trying to get millennials to be all soft and, shave their beards. Seems like they may be trying to reverse sales declines, due to beardos?

Beardos? Lol.
Shaving body hair is much more popular now than it was when I was growing up. I would think their sales would be up from that alone.

You can get a safety razor for $30 and a box of 100 blades for another ~$12. The fact anyone still buys Gillette razors and blade cartridges for $20 blows my mind. I haven't bought razor blades in like 2 years.

I like double blades though. And my girlfriend usually buys me razors.

This cuts as well as a two or three blades?

Do you have wilkinson sword available in the us?

Pfft, I have thick stubble, I think it cuts better. Your mileage may vary, but there are different razor blades you can purchase. For example, "Feathers" are considered to be one of the sharpest and most aggressive. You can get "sample packs" with a variety of razors and find one you like.

I do one pass with the grain, one pass across. Baby smooth. Switch blades out every 2 or 3 shaves. If you buy a pack of 100, its like 10-15 cents a blade.

This advert has emerged in Spain, dubbed into Spanish, but with the same content and message. It has been heavily criticised in the press, even the left wing media calling it "victimisation of masculinity". Gillette have made a huge error of judgement, on a worldwide level. Let's hope that this fiasco helps to recenter western society to embrace a rational mindset once more.

I don’t know. They did when I was a kid. We probably do but just overshadowed by the others.
