    I wanna see the Yoplait ad where a woman stops her neighbor from beating her daughter with an extension cord as the child screams and begs for mercy.

    Because THAT would be a realistic and valuable ad.

    (That will NEVER be made.)

    I want to see the Head & Shoulders ad where a mother is reminded not to beat her son and daughter until they bleed from their heads onto their shoulders.

    THAT would an ad of value.

    THAT is an ad we will NEVER see.

    Women commit the majority of domestic abuse.

    Men are blamed.

    Enough.

    When the SJWs move into the board room, it's only a matter of time before people get fed up and take their business elsewhere.

    Virtue signaling is so hot right now.... young boys don’t have enough stable consistent male rolemodels. Moms new boyfriend isn’t that he’s worried about getting laid not teaching life lessons. As far as the ad like I said hollow virtue signaling seems to be in so why not go for it

    Most media/ sitcom etc. seem to portray male role models as dumb and helpless it’s very condescending.

    It's a cynical corporate campaign designed to sell razor blades via triggering an emotional investment in the content of the advert.

    What’s weird is the difference from being ideal male and having toxic masculinity is all in perspective. Lots of quality that make up real men could be viewed as toxic masculinity. The word it’s self is so subjective and almost impossible to fact check barring a criminal record.

    43% of boys are raised by single mothers 78% of teachers are female So almost 50% of boys have 100%feminine influence while at home & an 8/10ish chance of 100% influence at school. Women are mad that they did a poor job and shifting the blame hmmm

    I don't think they'll be hurt too much by people refusing to squeeze the charmin. What will hurt them are a bunch of millenial sjw nutters deciding how to sell razor blades and toilet paper.

    Bashing Alpha male losers isn't the same as being anti-male. It's being Anti-doushebag.

    There is no such thing as toxic masculinity, nor is there toxic femininity there are however toxic people. If you think females can't be bullies you've lived a very sheltered life.

    Did you just ask programmed leftists if they are programmable? Nation-hating and race agitating Barack Obama could have not become president were leftists not programmable, and senior dementia symptoms Nancy Pelosi would not have been returned to the Speakership.

    I bet this was them looking at Nike and thinking they could do what Nike did with Colin Kap to get free publicity for creating a spectacle.
