P&G Challenges Men to Shave Their Toxic Masculinity in Gillette Ad

Wall Street Journal ^ | January 14, 2019 | Alexandra Bruell

[BBB333]

Harry’s or Dollar Shave Club, I prefer Harry’s...

[gasport]

I only use double edge blades.

Personna DE are made in USA
Excellent quality - $.25 each

Multi blade razors are a scam.

[detch]

If Gillette razors are superior, that should be the message.

If it’s not superior, then run some kind of social-media message and tell men not to be masculine and therefore don’t buy the product — and lose more customers in the process to the other “superior” brand.

So, their new message is “our product is inferior, so please buy somewhere else.”

I already have — SCHICK REALLY IS A BETTER PRODUCT.

This woman nails it on the issue:

[VanShuyten]

I bet Ru Paul uses a Gillette to shave his chrome dome.

[Drew68]

I doubt that scolding men will encourage them to buy more from Gillette.

This stuff makes it easy for me as a consumer to choose the generic brand.

[AC86UT89]

Gillette shaving prices are ridiculously high. Just trying to milk their most loyal consumers. Like many consumers, I’ve opted out and buy generic blades now, much cheaper, same results. Lots of other guys just decided to stop shaving all together, beards are “in” again.

Gillette’s response? “Hey let’s insult our remaining consumers by accusing them of rape and sexual assault!”

Epic fail.

[Born to Conserve]

Shaving is for women’s legs and armpits.

Men who shave are wussies.

I trim my facial hair to about 1/4”, once a week.

[PIF]

Go electric or not at all.

[Rinnwald]

Multi blade razors are a scam.

They'll get it right if they add just one more.

[Tuketu]

Switched to Harry’s. Great shave, now in Walmart. No waiting for shipping. I do not think those advocating anti White, anti Male policies deserve my patronage and I do not regard them as American companies, but part of Globalism and Progressive crap.

[FXRP]

I have a 1954 Gillette Super Speed (double edge, butterfly open) razor and I bought 100 Wilkinson Sword blades for $20. That will last me well into the next decade.

[CodeToad]

Slick chested little girlie dolls.

Pankaj Bhalla, Brand Director, Gillette:

[thoughtomator]

Allow me to recommend Van Der Hagen straight razors for the men among us for whom chest-shaving would not be considered outside of preparation for heart surgery.

[redangus]

Another reason to hate the Patriots (owned by the man who owns Gillette and named his stadium after a razor blade)

[originalbuckeye]

Athletes shaving body parts is a completely different matter. And most athletes are considered very masculine. Competing on the soils and waters of these United States is totally masculine.

[redangus]

Schick

Debbie Reiner, CEO, Grey Advertising Agency, which created the Gillette ad:

[ChessExpert]

For a while now it’s been a toss-up between Gillette and Schick razors for me. This is the tie-breaker for me.

Now, who’s credit card should I use? Some refuse to do business with David Horowitz.
