There are many, many alternatives to Gillette.

“Oh look, a razor company that cuts its own wrists.”

Best. Comment. Ever.

I spotted the Dawn also as we use it a lot. I looked up and found an alternative which is supposedly better and cheaper. Switching makes it a triple win.

Seventh Generation liquid soap

Just printed this, mailing it tomorrow:
Mr. Louvet, I just watched the new advertisement your company just put out geared towards “toxic masculinity” and I am astonished you would approve of such an advertisement.

Demonization of your prime target audience by portraying them in that fashion is an incomprehensible choice that your company will regret.

I can guarantee you-whatever advice or information you leveraged that made you think this advertisement was a good idea is completely fallacious. Men I know who have seen this ad have reacted so negatively to it that I can only believe you are intentionally trying to drive them away and eliminate them as consumers of your products.

How you think that is going to help Gillette sell razors to men is beyond me. Perhaps you subscribe to the belief that any publicity is good publicity.

I will never knowingly purchase another product produced by your company, and in my discussions with a variety of men who have seen that ill-conceived ad, I am not alone.

Davey O’Cullen: Gillette I’m more upset that Gillette only has a Male/Female line... What about the 57 other genders. If you’re gone go “woke” go full “woke” or not woke at all. Lol bigots.

Next. Best. Comment. Ever.

Their FB page is beautiful chaos, right now.

The Gillette Board of Directors has nine members, seven of whom appear to be likely to be old white males. I'll bet they are not amused at all.

Eukanuba and Iams [and also Purina] are funding the current crusade to destroy other, good brands of dog food by producing “scientific evidence” that other, good foods cause fatal cardiac issues in dogs.

Only *their* foods are “safe”.

Friggin’ hate them.

Take screen shots every 5 or ten minutes.

Document any manipulation.

They’ve been deleting comments and downvotes, just like with the battlefield 5 trailer, the Diablo immortal trailer, and many other leftist sjw wokeness crap videos.

Supposedly women make most of the buying decisions.

I make all of my own buying decisions because my wife trusts my judgement.

My wife and I always go grocery-shopping together - because, if I went alone, I would buy the wrong brand / kind of "sanitary napkin" (Is there really a difference between "maxi-pads," "tampons," and "shields?"), and if she went alone, she would buy the wrong kind of whiskey ("Well, isn't vermouth a kind of whiskey?!").

Regards,

Sounds like Gillette has turned a VP of Diversity and Political Correctness loose. I hope they’ll regret this nitwittery. We don’t need PC sermons from corporations.
