&#x3C;p&#x3E;Why does an Ad&#xA0; encouraging men to be GREAT MEN ignite temper tantrams and complete meltdowns in some people?.&#xA0; I honestly don&#x2019;t understand why an ad like this would annoy anyone instead of inspire them. &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;MAGA &#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;men especially are in tears over this ad. They are &#xA0;threatening&#xA0; &#x3C;a title=&#x22;&#x22; href=&#x22;https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/15/gillette-metoo-ad-on-toxic-masculinity-cuts-deep-with-mens-rights-activists&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22;&#x3E;to boycott&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#xA0; Gillette. Hope it works out for them like it worked out with Nike!&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;If your masculinity is very threatened by this ad then you NEEDED to see this ad. If this ad make you nod your head in agreement as a man&#x2026;..then you&#x2019;ve been doing it right. Congratulations Gillette. Keep up the good work.!&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
