Youre the one claiming you know for certain young people hate it because you've observed (with no data to back it up) that young people hated the ad. I didn't claim anything. You of all people should know that ad testing often comes back entirely different from what you personally observed. I didn't say young people loved it or hated it. I said I don't know. I'm not talking out of my ass because I didn't say the ad worked or didn't work. You did. |

But whatever. I'm out. |

This kind of stuff exists in the management structure of nearly every major corporation in America. The only difference is that they aren't building advertising campaigns out of it. YET. |

And yes, young customers for the razor category are significantly more valuable than older customers. Not just a little. A lot. It's simple customer lifetime value and switching costs. That's not talking out my ass. That's simple economics. No company values losing customers, but acquiring 1 young customer is probably worth losing a few older ones in the razor category. Not that that's even much of a risk, since brand loyal customers are far less likely to leave, even if they hate an ad like this. |

This is just another way for the elites in this country to use their money and power to tell us all how much better than us they are. Us cretins out here beating our wives and spanking our secretaries. |

I don't see that. P&G is a brand machine. They don't do anything without a shitload of testing. There's tons of business logic for going after a millennial target. Purchasing razors is much less price sensitive than many typical OTC categories (just read brand loyalty is something like 36%). It's a reason Gillette has been gouging customers for years with crazy margins. Young customers are big-time customer targets for Gillette, and they're getting picked off left and right by online shave clubs. To me, this felt like an idea that made strategic sense, but the execution was way too cheesy... which maybe has something to do with your second point. |

I already taught me son how to cat-call women.
**** off Gillette. |

Yes. And it is bad specifically because they are NOT men-related issues. Females bully. Females sexually harass. Gillette makes shaving products for women as well as men, yet did their commercial target them as well? No, it targets the terrible misconception that these issues arise solely from masculinity. I, for one, am going to keep being toxically masculine using my straight razor to shave instead of their expensive and crappy products. |
