  1. The Gillette ad isn't something out of the ordinary for the company. A lot of the backlash comes from insecure men,who don't want to admit their part in toxic masculinity. It was a good ad with a nice message and the unnecessary backlash that followed wasn't needed. In the end the ad only told facts and some just can't handle the truth.

  2. It seems like a good idea. It will help raise awareness for problems that could be caused by racism, bullying, and other things that are similar and cannot be justified by anything. It could also help support people who have been bullied and hurt because of race or religion.

  3. I think that was a good idea to promote men like that. It makes a man feel like he has accomplished something in life.

  5. I think that it is good that companies are speaking up about politics. However, I think that they are using their political opinions to sell the product. That means they don't have to be as focused on making something good. I think they don't really care about what's going on but are just using it to sell. There's no way to really know why a company is making those ads.

  6. Its, interesting. In all reality I really don't know what to think on the paragraph. Whether to hate it, whether to like it. It's somewhere in the middle due to the fact that i can't get to the understanding of what they are promoting.

  8. The ad is a great idea because it shows men in a "not-so-normal" way. It addresses social issues that we see today, and it raises awareness. The ad also shows the change we want to see in the world.

  10. I think Gillette made a very controversial commercial but I feel it was a necessary thing to do. I feel like companies with a big platform should speak out on important issues such as #metoo.

  11. Regarding this razor commercial talking about bullying it was very different from the others. It overall provided a good message showing the insecurities and wrongs that guys can portray using their slogan "Is this the best a man can get". Personally for me, I can care less for the topic, I do feel that this was a good medium to put that message through and that more companies will maybe do the same.

  12. These big company names like Nike and Gillette standing up for bigger things happening in the world. Sitting out the national anthem was Colin Kaepernick but Nike still gave him an ad for his choice to stand up for something bigger.

  13. I like the ad, it is interesting because that shows that me in a not so bad way it addresses social complaints that we observe today,and highers up awairnesses.

  14. I think the ad was a good idea to go outside of simply promoting your product. Having a stance on things outside of your product might help sway more people to buy it.

  15. The add that Gillette put together was a good one. They tried to show the world what some men are doing that is wrong. They tried get this ad to make people think about there choices in life. There not exactly promoting anything. Its just more of a message.

  16. My opinion on this is that its a good add to be promoting in the world today and raise awareness to bullying, racism, etc. The world is a bit insecure on hateful things like bully but we really do need to raise more adds on that problem so I'm glad they made a add like that.

  17. I think that the commercial isn't necessarily bad but it could've been represented better. To me they were just trying to serve this product as the best product although it could've been presented better.

  18. I think the commercial has provided a good message because their slogan clearly opposes bullying they also mention the benefit of putting a stake in the ground on controversial issues

  19. I think the ad was a good idea. It shows light on the important things thats not enough recognition or not being treated like its supposed to and since they are a big company everybody will see it.

  20. It's a good idea to make motivational ads that aren't advertising any fancy products, but rather just make people feel better. It also makes the people that see it feel better about themselves, especially if it's directed towards them.

  21. It's true! "boys will be boys" is a stupid excuse to not get better and to continue being a bad influence or being under a bad influence. Most men or young boys wanting to be men want to establish dominance but are immature and thats what masculinity should be about, Not about how tall or buff and what people call a "real man" with that kind of build.

  22. I think the ad is a good idea because it forces people to see it. People can't ignore it if its being shown all day.

  23. I think that the bullying ad was a good idea because everybody watches TV. I dont think nobody really cares about bullying or act like it doesnt matter just because not everybody is effected by it.

  24. I think the ad is a good thing because they teach people. Get the person point out and how they feel.

  25. I believe the Gillette did a awesome job in adding problems to the add because it adds awareness to the world. It allows others to see something like that happening to them and letting them know they are not the only one. The world is very mean to others who are insecure and we need to let them know it is not okay. While they promote products they are sending messages to others about many problems that we have. It can help others to get through there problems and also we are going to have some people still say something, but it is okay.
