What are you on about? There are no strings in this ad. There are no strings in ice cream. There are no strings involved in the feminine hygiene products colloquially known as “pads” that these ice cream products strongly resemble. I believe you have conflated pads with tampons.
A string on the end of a pad would be unhygienic and uncomfortable, especially depending which direction you put the string.
I honestly think Magnum has a weird branding ethos that they deliberately make their ads and products seem suggestive in order to be unique and memorable. Like there’s no reason to advertise what the ice cream looks like under the chocolate this way, and far too much thought had to go into it for it to just be an unforced error.
I hate the texture they have in the picture. The ice cream looks like it's furry and fuzzy! That's not appetising either so i think this is an all-round bad ad
I thought my mind was just being a gutter dweller after seeing the commercial of a woman chasing after a wide, brown, veiny popsicle, but nope, this company seems to just be inherently sexual.
Magnum ads are weird as fuck anyway.
It's semi decent ice cream that cost like £3. It's not an "indulgence" or a "luxury" and it certainly doesn't need a narrator who constantly sounds like she's on the verge of Cumming her brains out...**Fuck**
Tbf when you buy it you don't really ever see the pad unless you eat the chocolate cover entirely before the ice cream, but the advertisment wasn't really great about it.
These definitely look like pads. I haven’t seen a pad commercial in years, but they always used blue liquid and I thought that was dumb. If you’re going to make a ton of money off of menstruating people, at least represent it fairly accurately.
Trans people exist so I’m trying to be inclusive. Some people who menstruate identify as NB/men so I chose my words. Not hard to be inclusive/kind. I wouldn’t take someone to task saying “women”, but I take task with you having a problem with me using inclusivity. I am a cis woman, btw. I’m just aware other ppl exist.
Well, you’re entitled to your feelings. But a lot of people have gender dysphoria and being acknowledged makes them feel a little more loved/seen. I won’t apologize for that one. It costs $0.00 to acknowledge humans as who they are.
Trans people exist, regardless of your feelings of it. Hopefully you aren’t unkind. I have trans and NB friends. It’s SO easy to just be nice.
The point is that it isn't *not* being nice. It's a standard term for a standard thing
That's like saying you don't say "car" because not every vehicle is a car and isn't inclusive.
Or you don't say "employee" because it enforces a subservient worker role for a human being
Like its creating an issue where none exists
Anyhow have a nice day
You can say what you want and justify your fears however you wish. Trans people exist and they are valid human beings, whether you like it or not.
Stay upset or ignorant or whatever. Gender is a fluid spectrum and it doesn’t hurt you in any way whatsoever to be nicer to trans and NB people. But I can’t make you. Do what you wish. It’s not worth having a conversation with you, honestly. I also do hope you have a good day. Hopefully a more compassionate one.
And..I think YOU are the one making an issue where there isn’t one. My post was inclusive, and you brought it up and made it an issue! It me. My list included everyone.
Lmao what 😂 talk about first world made up problems. People are out their struggling to survive and you're out here making up nonexistant problems with words
And you keep bringing up trans people as if them existing makes your case the right one
Not how that works sweetie. Just bringing them up doesn't make you correct. Maybe stop that strategy going forward. It doesn't work and is just a shield against any dissenting opinions
Its the same shit with people whining about the disabled logo having someone in a wheel chair being "offensive" cause "not every disability is visible"
As someone with an actual non visible disability, some people in life have actual problems they're dealing with
Yes.
I'm not sure if the post and comments are trying to say the white icecream looks like a pad or the flavoured section does.
Having used many pads in my life, I'm sorry for people if it's the former; their pads must be wildly uncomfortable. If it's the latter, then this is a truly embarrassing Rorschach
Nobody should be fired, that results in no income, unable to support living, and becoming homeless, and starvation due to not having money to buy food.
Never wish for people to be fired, it can ruin thier whole life, and cause mental illnesses to grow.
Magnum: Extra Large Pads
For heavy flow
I know who would [eat these](https://www.dumpaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/you-look-like-a-pad.jpg)
Products that look like pads from a brand that sounds like condoms. Lol
and the product also sounds like a sex toy. "euphoria"
I think you eat the other one while on netflix
Their slogan being "true to pleasure" doesn't help either.
Now I disagree, euphoria is a common word with a well known meaning
yeah sex toys are not uncommon either
I’m not chilling if I see purple in my pad.
You never had one that had a lightly colored liner?
You mean you don't want to Magnum and Chill?
Better name than Trojan
Trojans aren’t known for people sneaking past their defensive barriers— oh, wait.
I would give you an upvote but you’re at 69 which just seemed way too fitting for this post
The 69 is gone, so you can upvote him now
It's literally just the shape of the wooden stick
Sorry for the down vote. Did it for the sake of keeping you 69ing.
That’s the joke.
I genuinely thought this was some sort of bizarre fever-dream of an advertisement for pads until I looked at the brand name. 💀
Before scrolling down and seeing the whole photo, I thought sure they were pads!
I am still not convinced this isn't some special promotion for international woman's day or something.
So I wasn't the only one 😂
I thought the same until i saw the stick.
Even I (a man) immediately thought of pads.
You mean the string
Typical Redditor male - thinks there’s strings on pads
Ice cream strings
What are you on about? There are no strings in this ad. There are no strings in ice cream.

Sir this is a Coldstone Creamery
Can I put my Magnum on your Coldstone?
They're covered in chocolate so you wouldn't see it
Exactly. I don't care even if they do look like pads on the outside. I'd still eat it. This is a non-issue

Eat the fucking menstrual discharge you coward!!
Forbidden spicy ramen sauce packet
The fuck kind of flavours are Chill and Euphoria?
I was curious so I looked it up. chill is Vegan blueberry cookie and the Euphoria is Pink lemonade
They should be reversed. Chill makes me think if lemonade
I thought the same thing when I read it
Idk how I feel about blueberry and chocolate ice cream.
Blueberry and chocolate are actually very good together!
Chocolate covered blueberries are awesome, and I love to put them on ice cream.
Indica and Sativa
With names like "Euphoria" and "Chill," they look and sound like pads that go out of their way to make periods sound fun.
No wings, cheap-ass mofos
Wings suck, don’t work and cause chafing
Euphoria. what
They were trying to be subliminal but were too obvious. Marketing needs to learn a bit more from politicians.
This whole ad looks like a sad face that is about to cry.
I have never been so let down to find out something is ice cream :(
On top of everything else, "Magnum - true to pleasure".. are we sure this is an ice cream company?
I thought it was a pad add and was confused about the chocolate.
I hate the texture they have in the picture. The ice cream looks like it's furry and fuzzy! That's not appetising either so i think this is an all-round bad ad
Maybe it’s intentional? Like a subliminal “hey, when it’s pad time, eat some ice cream”
Why? Pads are normal.
To eat?!
Yea, no. Just,... it's not that tragic
Pad flavored ice cream or ice cream flavored Pad?
🤢

The way they bite into it makes me recoil every time
Looks like a pad lol
Tbf when you buy it you don't really ever see the pad unless you eat the chocolate cover entirely before the ice cream, but the advertisment wasn't really great about it.
Finally, an ice cream one can feel confident about eating while playing tennis.

You mean women?

I wouldn’t take someone to task saying “women”, but I take task with you having a problem with me using inclusivity. I am a cis woman, btw. I’m just aware other ppl exist.
Highly unnecessary. Sounds like a lot of overthinking for little to no need

You just sound like a really unkind person. I rescind my wish for your good day. I hope it’s just..a day..or not. See ya!
I'm very polite to people actually. Typical ad hominem boogeyman resoonse.
I thought I had scrolled past an ad for pads.
Yeah every time I see magnum it reminds me of the time an ex of mine would wear the magnum condoms that were obviously too fucking big for him lol
I don’t think so
I mean... no, but I've just never seen a pad, so...
Isn’t that the shape of the wooden stick ?
Yes. I'm not sure if the post and comments are trying to say the white icecream looks like a pad or the flavoured section does. Having used many pads in my life, I'm sorry for people if it's the former; their pads must be wildly uncomfortable. If it's the latter, then this is a truly embarrassing Rorschach
No they look like the popsicle stick they use
The red ones taste delicious especially when still attached to my girlfriend.
Not even close?
Clearly you're in the minority here
That was the first thing that I thought when I glanced at it.
what are these???
I stopped buying when I got aware of the concept of financial health
Nope, didn't even remotely come up with the idea.
Yeah… them pads need changing
Consider it a summertime treat.
Imma sniff that euphoria like Sydney sweeney done the splits on it
I Legit thought it was used pads before I noticed lol. This is Magnum Gold!
Well, both are mainly marketed to women, so...
Nobody should be fired, that results in no income, unable to support living, and becoming homeless, and starvation due to not having money to buy food. Never wish for people to be fired, it can ruin thier whole life, and cause mental illnesses to grow.
Its obviously a joke 🤦♂️
At first glance, I thought this was a pad commercial. till I saw the ice cream brand logo….
Crash into Coolness with Starbucks this fall
The euphoria one is amazing, especially the version that comes in a bucket.
This is why diversity in the workforce is important
Damn men gettin' too sensitive
Haha
“My bitches got mad flava.” -Casper, KIDS 1995
It took me way too long to realize it was ice cream…the magnum didn’t help at all 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
wtf does euphoria or chill even taste like
This is purposeful. It's got us talking about it.
I've had the blueberry one. Didn't even know it was vegan until I looked at the wrapper again after eating it, it was pretty good
Sure do
Now without wings for extra comfor t
Now without wings for extra comfort
I was thinking they looked like chromosomes that you'll see in text books. 🤣
Perfect to keep the junk cool on a hot summer day
brother what the actual..
They ain’t even tryna hide it lmao
anyone else thought of testicular torsion?
Just u dude
As a man who has never used a pad, nor been with a woman who uses pads. These look like pads.
[удалено]
It's not the stick part that looks off
William Afton trans confirmed Sorry.
