I will never buy a product from Gillette again. Like Nike, target and Dicks Gillette has decided to become a social justice warrior company. I hope commies can keep their company afloat because we conservatives NEVER forget.
Masculinity is NOT toxic. What is toxic??? Feminism is toxic, metoo is toxic, SJWs are toxic and socialism is toxic.
Words cannot express the magnitude of my disgust and contempt toward these leftists who promote this sort of thing. I think higher of maggots than I do leftists.
I've known quite a few guys- particularly when I was younger- whose only goal in life was to **** women. Get them drunk. Lie to them. Pressure them. Whatever it takes... the *only* point was to stick their thingy into her thingy. Sometimes even bordering on rapey behavior. Didn't matter how low they had to stoop to do so... and then talking **** about said female to their friends afterwards.
Even when I was young, I always thought that was a really ****ty way to behave toward your fellow humans who happen to have vaginas. Not claiming to be a saint... but I've never deceived nor pressured a woman for sex.
Oh, and casually referring to women you know nothing about as "that ****" or **** like that? Yeah, that's ****ty behavior. And I have no problem with feminists raising hell over it.
Sorry that threatens your fragile masculinity.
Would you like more examples? I can probably think of a few.
I'm annoyed by companies who seem to think they know what's best and try to force social change. They don't and they shouldn't and they are evil by trying. Like some mad social scientists who don't even have the credentials or education to practice social science. I know some of specific intentions and do this for their own gain but I'm convince a bunch of others just never saw a publicity bandwagon they didn't want to jump on.
We're you annoyed by I'd like to buy the world a Coke? It was similar in idea for social change.
Toxic masculinity is when men use traits usually associated with "masculinity" (strength, street smarts, thick-skin, courage, vigor, self-reliance) to disparage and demean others outside the role of self-defense - whether for just cheap social dominance points or to gain something at the expense of another person's essential well-being (physical or psychological).
Which has the implication that anyone using traits usually not associated with masculinity to disparage and demean is merely Toxic.
For instance disparaging and demeaning and invalidating someone's sense of outrage at a commercial that could be seen to disparage, demean, and invalidate some general classification of the public.
This would also imply that commercial is equally toxic.
Wow I'm getting a handle on this toxicity thing. I'm going to have fun with this, in a completely non-toxic manner of course.
Seems to me those who aren’t upset, don’t realize Gillette has no plans on social equality by making commercials about toxic femininity and charge women the same for blades as they do men. Hypocrisy at its finest.
Ignorance is bliss I guess.
Their Daisy brand takes care of that toxic leg hair, lol.
Being a strong man does not mean a man is cruel or abusive. Nice strawman!
Strength is an important trait to make it life. I was bullied as a child and my dad taught me how to handle bullies. He actually told me how to act and how to stop the abusers and it worked. And I taught my son how to handle these type of boys at school.
What is the meaning of toxic masculinity? Why not call it aberrant behavior? Would it be Ok to describe bad behavior by women toxic femininity? This is nothing but BS form the extreme feminists. Mosty women want a strong man, that is how we evolved.
If we didn't have toxic masculinity to begin with there would be no bullies or abusive men. Then we wouldn't need strong men to fight them off.

Wow only men are bullies? Learn something new everyday.
Being strong isn't about ability to fight. It's about ability to walk away from a fight. To be the bigger person and not allow yourself to be lowered.
Bullies are weak people at heart and require a strong supporting cast to function.
P&G flubbed on this one in their attempt to show that they are sensitive. Their market shares are dwindling. Stocks aren't moving. The generic brands are cheaper but perform well enough to justify not spending more on the premium brands. P&G is desperate.
