There is a new Gillette ad, this time a man showing his transgender son how to shave. I found the other ad speaking out "toxic masculinity" to be ridiculous, and guess what? With this one, I'm ambivalent. On one hand, I have no problem with transgenderism and think it's a cute ad, and showing a man teach his transgender son how to shave is fresh and innovative. On the other hand, Gillette is still trying to show how woke they are and appeal to people who don't like capitalism in the first place and are too dense to see they are being played like fiddles.
Ask yourself this: If Gillette did an add showing a man teaching his unborn son how to shave than being devastated when his baby mama gets an abortion, would you still support Gillette? Of course not. If Gillette ran an ad showing a man teaching his son how to shave-then go hunting, would you support it? No. So you probably have no problem with Gillette being liberal, but if they suddenly became conservative you'd correctly say they were pandering. Because so many people agree with Gillette right now, no one will say they are pandering. They are just "keeping it real".
