I assumed maybe someone had just typo'd men instead of man in the ad. But no. It's a thing.
The spinning epiglotis waterwheel must surely just fling piss back at you if you're urinating with any force? And I have it on good authority that little bots can urinate with force.

judging by this advert, women are also permitted to use mansize tissue to do ladylike things, or if they "have a man size cold"

that ad is from 1964 but imo it's striking how similar it is to a lot of the 21st century ads on this thread, in that it's kind of ironic and aware that "tissues for MEN" is a self-evidently ridiculous concept, but still pushing this marketing of masculinity idea

This shit is hilarious - but it doesn’t strike me as any more or less absurd than gear that’s marketed on the ultra-feminine end of the spectrum. (The navy sea tactical soap from upthread, on the other hand, that’s some crazy toxic shit.) I imagine stuff like this is just companies finally cottonong on to the fact they can do gender-specific marketing & charge a premium price to men the same way they’ve been doing to women for years.

the thing that annoys me the most about "masculine" bath products is that all the men's shampoos are combination shampoo/conditioners. I'd be willing to give all the REAL MAN STUFF MADE WITH WOOD CHIPS AND CAFFEINE nonsense a pass if I could just wash and condition my hair separately.

I think the first deodorant I bought as an early teen was Brut branded. They're truly the classic supermarket shelf man fragrance, precursor to those extreme branding upstarts like Axe

Most scented products marketed to men smell totally gross to me. Like somebody poured paint stripper on a pine tree. I've used Degree Shower Scent deodorant for decades, during which time it's vacillated between being marketed as a unisex product and something exclusively for the ladies. I think it's the latter at the moment. All I care about is that it doesn't evoke a gasoline-tainted bag of lawn clippings and charred beef.

I don't really get the idea that shampoo is really any different for women or men
if you want really expensive men's shampoo/conditioner and buy into the idea salon junk is in any way better quality, aveda sells individual ones for men
― mh, Thursday, 11 January 2018 17:00 (six years ago) link
men need shampoo to wash out the sweat/coal dust/engine grease; conditioning in itself is unmanly

I'm sure it's been mentioned before in this thread but so much of this stuff reminds me of the ads from Dudley Moore's Crazy People.

Haha, also that movie has a scene where a non-Dudley Moore person tries to come up with a shampoo ad and says something about adding body, and John Heard's ad exec contemptuously replies, "Shampoos rob your hair of body, everyone knows that." Don't know why that line is so oddly memorable.

Surely if your hair is already full of manly grime and dust you would just leave it as is rather than compromise your machismo with a namby-pamby simulacrum of manliness whipped up in a lab by some Poindexter.
