A short film by Gillette, a manufacturer of men’s shaving products, tells men to shun “toxic masculinity” and “the same old excuses” for male behavior.
The film, “We believe: The Best Men Can Be,” posted on the company’s Facebook page, begins by referencing Gillette’s slogan, “The best a man can get,” while invoking the #MeToo movement against sexual harassment:
“Bullying. The ‘Me, Too’ movement against sexual harassment. Toxic masculinity – is the best a man can get? Is it?
“We can’t hide from it. It’s been going on far too long. We can’t laugh it off. Making the same old excuses: ‘Boys will be boys.’”
The video displays text of three, presumably male,” comments:
“Everybody hates you,” “You’re such a loser” and “Sissy.”
Enough is enough, Gillette declares, calling men to speak and act “The right way”:
But, something finally changed. And there will be no going back.”
….
“To say the right thing; to act the right way.
“Some already are. In ways big and small. But, some is not enough. Because the boys watching today will be the men of tomorrow.”

I buy all my shaving supplies from Dollar Tree.
I can shave for a year for under $10, including shaving cream.
And Gillette doesn’t get a penny of it.
I would guess that 80% of TV ads push some sort of liberal agenda. Often overwhelming any attempt to sell the product.
