What Gillette forgot is that it is in a competitive market and forgot who their customer is. I am switching to Costco blades, any other shave cream or new shave products. Let them sell their female products since they don’t call him male to the female and transpeople crowd. Good luck with 50% of the market. Stupid marketing.

Several years ago at least ten, I bought a crapton of Gillette blades on that famous auction site. I’m not sure where the guy got them, but they are genuine and the supply is down to two boxes. I was just getting ready to buy more.

After this outrage, I’ve decided never to buy a Gillette blade again. Ever. That auction site also has some vintage straight razors. I think a leather strop and good Sheffield or Solingen steel and I’ll be good to go.

F these people. Stupid, stupid stupid. One would think a cardinal rule in business, don’t do ANYTHING to insult your customer. The shareholders are getting screwed on this kind of nonsense too.
