The chief executive of the parent company of Gillette, which recently ran an advertisement depicting traditional views of masculinity as immoral and abusive, refused to back down on Thursday.

“It started a conversation,” Proctor & Gamble chief executive David Taylor said in an interview with CNBC’s Sara Eisen Thursday. “There is an issue with tox masculinity.”

Taylor, who spoke to Eisen at the globalist boondoggle in Davos, described the negative reaction to the video as coming from a “well organized but small number’ of people.

Proctor & Gamble reported earnings this week that beat expectations but the company continues to struggle with sales in its grooming division, which includes Gillette razors.

Taylor did not explain how attacking “toxic masculinity” would help Gillette sell more razors to male consumers.

It started a conversation about switching to alternative products from the ones made by Proctor & Gamble, for sure.

People may see Amway as a joke, but at least you can buy from them without supporting leftist causes and their stuff is made here. Store brands are another option.

There are probably some ‘Woke’ Ad Executives threatening to quit if this approach is Sh**Canned.

“I’ll go on the Ellen Degeneres Show and tell everybody that Proctor & Gamble runs a toxic work environment to women!
I felt devalued and rejected because of my sex.
Is that what all your rich stockholders want to hear?”

Does that purple tie mean anything?

I don’t let this petty crap bother me. National security and illegal immigration bother me. There seems to be a weekly fad of something or someone “triggering” the weak.

Saving this quote for when Gillette goes in the $hitter.

There is only one product they make that I can’t get somewhere else.
