I'm buying Bic from now on. Get woke, go broke.

It looks like the flex 3 is the equivalent of the mach 3?

Well Gillette, thanks for making the choice easy for me. If I ever run out of my off-brand internet razors and have to buy another brand at the store, it won't be Gillette.

Can someone please tell me how alienating half or more of your customers is a good business strategy?

The worst part of this was at 1:03. In real life no black man would stop another man from approaching.

It's an insane move. It's akin to McDonald's doing a "fuck you all you meat-eaters" ad. Do they really think that the men are all soy-boy liberals?

Do you really need more than 2 blades to shave though?

They don't give a fuck. Procter and Gamble subsidiary, as was already mentioned. This isn't a profit-driven move, but just another shiv in whitey's back.

I get a great shave from the mach 3, and will use up my current razors and switch to something else.

The first time in many years Gillette managed to put out something with an actual edge to it.

I'll stick to my Buy it for Life Edwin Jagger with an Astra or Feather blade in it.

A real man doesn't need a vibrating dildo razor. If it was good enough for my grandpappy, it's good enough for me.

Also, the blades are 1/4 the price, and last 5 times as long.

RE: Gillette releases new toxic masculinity commercial: "The Best Men Can Be"
I'm kicking myself for getting a 6 month supply of mach 3 about a month ago. Not sure what to get next. How often do guys switch to a new razor? I shave every day, and it lasts about 3 weeks. When I switch to a fresh blade, it generally feels great.

Thumbs Down RE: Gillette releases new toxic masculinity commercial: "The Best Men Can Be"
From the YouTube comments... seems factually correct from what I recall of the video:

"43 men in this video displayed toxic masculine behavior. 1 was black.
7 men in this video showed "desirable" actions. 5 were black lol."


It goes without saying no one is pointing this out to hear any racist comments about black men. It does however provide more evidence that straight white males are being portrayed as evil and toxic at every turn from ever kind of media outlet there is.

Everyone knows that it's the white men with supreme confidence standing outside liquor stores yelling out at passing girls, and the gentle level-headed black man holding him back. I see it everyday.

They are deleting all the best comments as fast as they can. All the good ones with lots of likes disappeared when I refreshed the page, and the top comments out of 21,000 were ones posted just a few minutes ago.

I wouldn't be surprised if the dislike count starts dropping mysteriously, too. Currently at 74K dislikes with 392K views.

My masculinity became approximately 20% more toxic after watching that. It's almost as if that's exactly what they wanted. I miss the days when adverts served no purpose other than to brainwash me into buying stuff I didn't need.

RE: Gillette releases new toxic masculinity commercial: "The Best Men Can Be"
The last gillette product I ever used was actually shoplifted. I felt somewhat bad but not too much because the insane mark up for $25 for 4 razors that cause insane razor burn (skid anything over 2 blades, lads). Now I'm happy I did it. Five finger discount on a SJW product in an SJW store (target). My degeneracy turned into a win-win.

1. Stopping boys from fighting
2. Telling men to be nice to women and let women walk over them
3. Telling me it's not ok to go after what they want
4. Showing the weakest looking most pathetic "men" they could find.
5. Showing teenage boys being bored of attractive women dancing


This is clearly an attack on Testosterone. In about a year they're probably going to ban all self-help videos marketed towards men from youtube. I really fear for my generation and the next few.

I’m considering sourcing my blades elsewhere and telling P&G to fuck off noting that sickening commercial.

Use Japanese butterfly blades or similar.

They are struggling to put more niggas in dresses since Dave Chapelle and Martin Lawrence tipped everyone to the game.

Now they find new ways to make us effeminate. That recent commercial with the two NFL players dressed in pink running a cupcake shop with bulging muscles is the most obvious example.

There is no shortage of black celebrities these days openly pushing homosexual agenda to other blacks.

Ya it was hard to believe this was real when I first saw it. However, the public seems to not be accepting this crap as tons of comments say they will not be buying their razors anymore.

Won't matter. Gillette is owned by Proctor & Gamble and good luck boycotting every brand they own:

Ironic, the soy boys and nu-males that this commercial is promoting wouldn't even have enough testosterone to actually grow facial hair to shave with in the first place. Fuck Gilette, buy a straight-edge razor in lieu of their disposable crap.
