Sexist Marketing

[peterfaParticipant 833]

I can’t be the only one who feels disenfranchised by marketing of products. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll notice that there is a lot of sexism in marketing of products to men. We are seen as a worthless demographic in many respects. We are given messages that we just simply do not value our selves. The sexism is most obvious in products such as:

• Tampons
• Bras
• Bubble bath
• Make up
• Gossip magazines
• And many others

Though we are men, we should also be marketed to for these products. I should be allowed to by my tampons without feeling like I’m buying a woman’s product. I’m a man, and I have periods too.

It seems to me that it is just as bad everywhere else. F~~~ing Stella Artoi-who-gives-a-s~~~-how-it’s-spelled and their making sure women in the third world get water. Not men, not children, just women. The stupid taco bell commercial with their ultimate obesity burritodilla where the woman steals the guy’s food because he likes her. It’s all a bunch of bulls~~~, and the one thing positive I can say about Millennials is that we ignore all advertising. Unfortunately that means we ignore the fact this s~~~ is going on.

No TV … No commercials …. No problem …. for me. The rest of the world … and their products can f~~~ off.

I did a quick headcount of my shopping needs. I only buy and use between 5 – 15% of what stores offer. It’s always the same stuff I buy and is seldom advertised.

Stores, advertising etc are for stupid brainless women children.

AVOID

Same, TV is garbage, go read a book instead. Unless they broadcast something actually interesting, like a good movie or a good documentary.

It is a common failing of childhood to think that if one makes a hero out of a demon the demon will be satisfied.

I ran out of shampoo this morning, I dread my next trip to the store, when I will have to venture deep into enemy territory.
