I'm sure you're right, PASkinner. The fact that 4X more people gave the video a thumbs down, than a thumbs up, assures me of that. crazy

Maybe it just says something about the sad state of manhood in this country. Or the fact that every one seems to be looking for a reason to be angry. You can find people calling each other names over who is the best singer or athletes. So taking your cues from the internet might not be a good idea.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

He's right Angela, we so need a razor company to tell the Men of this world how to behave. crazy


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

It seems if you have to tell all men already shaving to not be jerks around a women you have already failed at that goal!

That's pretty much it in a nutshell Law Dog.

White, heterosexual males in this Country have been taking a beating from various women's groups and most liberal sources for a long time. This commercial is more of the same. It assumes men need to be told not to act like cavemen because after all, we're just a bunch of insensitive, chauvinistic pigs.


Eh...wot?

If you try harder, can you find a more liberal news source?

When I was young, I would be offended if I went to the trouble of dressing up nice and didn't get a couple whistles from construction workers. Now, that's considered assault and you're supposed to tell your buddy he's an idiot if he does that.

This commercial just touches on so much of what's wrong with the world today. We all agree that no one should grope a stranger, and that if you find out your 12 year old is beating up a 8 year old, you should whup his butt. No one needs Gillette to tell them that. The fact that kids are NOT allowed to settle their differences, is no doubt a big part of what is leading to all these school shootings. Being a bully is not okay, but standing up to a bully and busting his nose sure as heck IS okay, and it's also okay to bust a kid's nose if you catch him bullying a younger kid.

Boys WILL be boys. Men WILL men. Girls will be girls and women will be women, and that's exactly how it was meant to be. When you start telling boys they can't be boys, but need to be kinder, and gentler, and more in touch with their feelings and the feelings of those around them etc.... you end up with 1 of three things. A school shooter, a homosexual male, or a boy in a man's body that is no where near ready for the responsibilities of life, and needs a safe space when his candidate loses an election. Gillette seems to want more "men" like that... but I sure don't.

Wow...Dead On!!!

Gillette is just trying to sell razors. Why would they want the world full of many men, grizzly Adams types?

Let's face it, even the "lumbersexual" movement hasn't exactly been good for business.

What their shareholders want is a world full of nice obedient clean-shaven limp wristed pillow biters.

Darn society, they probably just want to sell razors.

I'm still waiting for someone to point out something in the actual video that does any of what they say it does.
Instead of "Let's boycott them because they pointed out that being a gentleman is better than being a dirtbag."

I guess we are still looking for an apology or accountability for the way the media took the me too movement and tried to destroy a man's life, instead it would seem their supporters are doubling down.

They would love to have celebrated great men in a comercial but "we couldn't find any."

Just look at the R Kelly fiasco going on now there is a TV series on now (Surviving R Kelly) accusing him of abusing a lot of the ladies and teens, protests at Sony studios to drop him from their record label the condemning of his record studio in Chicago. Did he do it, most likely it's true but he has never been convicted of anything yet so just think where this kind of thing could snowball into, the Salem witch hunt days all over.
