marketing of masculinity

haha thats kinda dope tho

I think it would actually look alright if it was just sort of vaguely "knight inspired" and didn't have an actual helmet built in

no way, then the knight hoodie illusion is incomplete

Kinda want that for walking the dog in winter tbh.

i'd wear it? imagine peeping into the helmet and surprise. it me.

just discovered 'tactical baby gear', which is exactly like a regular diaper bag, except eight times the price and marketed to men who think that having children with your wife makes you gay pic.twitter.com/BMXjn61asb

only pansies want _soft_ beards, true men have beards with the texture of steel wool

I use a 2x4 to soften my beard.

i use my copy of "the return of the durutti column" to soften my beard

I use my beard to soften pieces of 2x4.

Hmmm…

lmao

poor self-cucked redbubble dude

feel like we're now into the 'be a feminist you fucking pussy' era of masculinity marketing.

and other realms indeed

All of the marketing for beard products grosses me out and I don’t buy any of them. Beyond even a feminist level it’s just unappealing. How about something that says “your beard will be clean and pleasant” instead of “you will smell like a steelworker”

Besides, Dr Bronners works fine.

Not judging, but kind of an ugly woman up there in pomenitul's pic.

i don't think she's necessarily ugly - she's just made some questionable style choices. like, she's put a lot of work into what is a fairly ludicrous hairstyle, but hasn't done anything at all about her skin. it's almost as if she's trying to blend as male, but if she is the total lack of a beard is a dead giveaway.

does this count

spengleroffthescale.jpg

going for a metal vibe, which is disproportionately male, so I'll say it clears the bar

jesus fucking christ

I love innovation

would count just as well as response to the totenkopf-aesthetic post in the other thread tho. lmao @ the blackletter

You guys think you're so smart, huh. Why aren't you rich like Mike Cessario?

also connects to the silicon valley thread. I had to consider my options.

age of mergers

in fairness sprite's dreary injunction to "obey your thirst" clearly does not cut it in this time of upheaval

shout out to the og edgelord brand

how the hell is LIQUID DEATH not a Nathan Fielder thing

we've definitely crossed the line from "commercials are indistinguishable from Tim & Eric homages" to "products seem to be designed by Nathan Fielder"

always looking for brands that speak to me

I'm part of the Totino's lifestyle. I'll admit it.

I was killing time at the bar over beers last week and started writing down a list of products think are embarrassing to buy versus products that are actually mortifying

kind of split the difference on Charmin with the bears on the packaging

ass cream? you're a man who admits his problems and is taking care of them

water with a metal design scheme? mortifying

the text on shampoo bottles is routinely amazing to me

especially love those that offer a french translation

you're giving away my french language learning program idea

Man, tell me about it. I can't even buy a chainsaw in North America without seeing that prissy language all over everything.
