(almost OT) new Fb group against "toxic masculinity" ad

I've just watched the advert, I don't have a problem with that one either. Considering the number of LGBT people who are not accepted by their parents, the very people who are supposed to love and support them the most, I have no problem with showing the father of a trans man supporting his son.

To be honest I'm having a hard time seeing anything objectionable about the advert at all.

I disagree completely.

I think the advert is a f*cking disgrace.

Seriously shaving against the grain on your neck with a 5 blade razor head? That's a recipe for ingrowns. I'm not even going to talk about the lack of prep.

FFS, a single blade razor (double at most) with proper prep/lather not just shitty gel from a can.

Pfft.

Makes me furious.

(IMO, should have been a Tech/7OC Yellow, Boar brush & Cella)
 
My two pence!
I do not give a hoot.
I have been on many a racing grid where women are "used" the girls will say "it's just a job"
I have seen many women batter their partners and children and Vica Versa. When you get involved the focus of both changes.
This is a shaving forum to enjoy the fantastic craic about shaving. Please leave the BS for the tabloids.
By the way I am watching the fantastic " Les Miserables" YMMV.
That's all folks
 
As a child at many different schools I never encountered anyone having issues ididentifying gender. Yet today the media portrays it as very common, for example Theo in Sabrina.
I have no idea if this is what is occurring in reality, but why is it occuring now and not 35 years ago? I have had one colleague change gender, I just went with the flow. I grew up with a gay uncle - a cross between Kenneth Kendall and Nigel Hawthorne. Very dapper, you wouldn't have known he was gay apart from having a male flatmate for 50 years and being exceedingly well dressed and groomed.
 
I don't think LGBT is more common than it was 35 years ago, after all it's the way you're born not a choice. It's just that 35 years ago society was more prejudiced than it is now and people either felt that they had to hide / deny who they were or actually had to to avoid discrimination and in some cases abuse and violence. In the last few years there seems to be a push to get it more into the open and raise awareness and hopefully acceptance.
