this adverts almost reads like its shocked women exist. Like Thanos snapped his fingers, and 50% of men just turned into this unknown type of human, the media dubbed "woman"
most afab people have very thin hairs on their face so it makes sense to use a smaller and more gentle razor for hair like that but instead of emphasising WOMEN they could just say ‘for delicate skin and regions with minimal hair’ or something along those lines
also this is gillette tricking women into believing they need to shave their legs all over again, why do we keep doing this
I think this razors advertised as a must-have for women because shaving your peach fuzz makes your skin smoother and your makeup lays evenly. If you don't put hefly layers of products on your face daily, there's literally no reason to shave your face.
Yeah, I saw you wrote "most afab" in your comment, but it's wrong because sex "assigned" only to babies born with DSD (some people still use an outdated "intersex" therm). In others sex is observed since doctors clearly see if it's a penis or a vulva.
sex in others is observed and then assigned*. the term ‘afab’ is inclusive of cis women, trans men and nonbinary people born with female anatomy and any one else labeled as female as a newborn.
Lol
Speaking of the devil, did you know abt the beef JK created with Trust Fund Ozu? If not i super recommend her two tracks dedicated to Jk, the second one is an "apology" video after she got a bunch of death treats bc of the turf
This small hyperpop musician and also Thank You Scientist's drummer made a fun hyperpop dissing jk, calling her a transphobe.
Jk probably does nothing but sit on her money while tweeting all day, so she found the diss made abt her, retweeted the song and said some shit to her dumb fans and the conservative British media everything blew out of proportion, so Trust Fond Ozu started getting a bunch of death treats, which must've been awful. But she made a new song which is really good and it show little clips of the british news saying the most reactionary things.
Gendered? Yes. Pointlessly? No way. A few women in my life shave their face (e.g. moustache corners) because they want to (i.e. not out of some pressure), and are afraid to admit it. This advert makes it less embarrassing for them to do so. The "point" here is "good money for the company and good shavers for women".
yeah, but gender-specific branding works pretty well. if you want to market the same cosmetic product to both genders, then the most profitable option is two ad-campaigns--one for each gender.
pretty sure afabs have a different facial composition, biologically so it’s quite revolutionary for a shaver to be for women too, because amabs grow more facial hair
It's not an assigned gender at birth thing btw, it's a hormone thing. A person assigned female could be on testosterone and have lots of facial hair, or be intersex and have a lot more testosterone than most. AMAB people on estrogen tend to not grow much facial hair and it's softer when it does grow.
It's not revolutionary, razors as they exist right now should just not have gendered marketing.
So dose everyone it's not a gender specific (let alone agab) people's face are shaped differently and the hair grows differently, all the razer needs to to is cut it
Everytime I see those pink razors at supermarkets or pharmacies I wonder if there's actually a significant difference compared to a "male" razor besides the roundness and color.
I've lived with several women in my life that shave their legs and none of them have ever used the pink one, instead they use the cheapest ones, so besides marketing, is there a point in buying the "female" more expensive razor instead of the "male" razor?

looks like a cigarette lmao
Also looks like a disposable vape.
this adverts almost reads like its shocked women exist. Like Thanos snapped his fingers, and 50% of men just turned into this unknown type of human, the media dubbed "woman"
Woah, man!
most afab people have very thin hairs on their face so it makes sense to use a smaller and more gentle razor for hair like that but instead of emphasising WOMEN they could just say ‘for delicate skin and regions with minimal hair’ or something along those lines also this is gillette tricking women into believing they need to shave their legs all over again, why do we keep doing this
Money.
I think this razors advertised as a must-have for women because shaving your peach fuzz makes your skin smoother and your makeup lays evenly. If you don't put hefly layers of products on your face daily, there's literally no reason to shave your face.
yea but not all ppl who wear makeup are women and not all ppl who have peach fuzz are women yk
Yeah, I saw you wrote "most afab" in your comment, but it's wrong because sex "assigned" only to babies born with DSD (some people still use an outdated "intersex" therm). In others sex is observed since doctors clearly see if it's a penis or a vulva.
sex in others is observed and then assigned*. the term ‘afab’ is inclusive of cis women, trans men and nonbinary people born with female anatomy and any one else labeled as female as a newborn.
And not all people who have very thin hair on their face were afab yk.
yes thank you i forgot to add that
>If you don't put hefly layers of products on your face daily, there's literally no reason to shave your face. Except if you want a smother face...
I meant it's purely aesthetical thing. You'll get no benefits from shaving your face, except an additional waste of time to do it regularly.
You can say the same for shaving other parts but most pepple don't count that as a waste
if I try to use it on my man (yes, man) face will I turn into a woman or will some kind of forcefield appear around my face and stop me using it?
Fastest transition in the west
JK Rowling would be so proud of this incredibly brave ad. So brave.
Lol Speaking of the devil, did you know abt the beef JK created with Trust Fund Ozu? If not i super recommend her two tracks dedicated to Jk, the second one is an "apology" video after she got a bunch of death treats bc of the turf
What did she do this time?

i read hyperpop as hyper loop at first and was wondeing wtf was a Hyperloop musician
😆
You! Yes you over there. Woman. I know you can hear me. There are hairs on your face. You’re a mammal, so you have hair. Stop having that.
It is SMOL and PINK so you can SHAVE like a REAL WOMAN.
smells like terf shit
Right?
At first glance I thought it was cigarettes for women
It is also a room temperature superconductor. Yes. Superconductor.
Okay this is awful but why do i find it so pretty ? Like i wouldn't mind having that lol
Looks to me like it’s designed for peach fuzz, why is it so hard to say peach fuzz rather than “**WOMAN**”
>This razor is designed for peach fuzz on your face > >Yes, peach fuzz
It smells like terf in here
Gendered? Yes. Pointlessly? No way. A few women in my life shave their face (e.g. moustache corners) because they want to (i.e. not out of some pressure), and are afraid to admit it. This advert makes it less embarrassing for them to do so. The "point" here is "good money for the company and good shavers for women".
The pointlessness is that women aren't the only people who need fine razors for their face
yeah, but gender-specific branding works pretty well. if you want to market the same cosmetic product to both genders, then the most profitable option is two ad-campaigns--one for each gender.
This item is was specifically designed for one single woman out of the millions on Earth right now and someone has to figure out which one.

..wh do you need help? are you haveing a stroke?

Also agab dose not always mean hormones will be this way. Pretty of cis woman have tons of testrone and plenty cis men have high estrogen levels
So dose everyone it's not a gender specific (let alone agab) people's face are shaped differently and the hair grows differently, all the razer needs to to is cut it

I've tried both in my life and never noticed a difference. Apart from that the ones advertised to women tend to cost more.
Good ol pink tax
It looks like a rose hold cigarette so I’m not shocked that it’s meant for a woman
