marketing of masculinity

it's a little like the dude behind this is afraid if he puts down his chainsaw and moves too far away from his truck, he will spontaneously give birth

'duke cannon' sounds like a gay porn stars name

'Duke Cannon Shoots With His Huge Balls'

no, soldiers fight for their superiors in a chain of state power!

or something. it's definitely not "freedom of speech" as a bottom line whatever that means.

feel like this thread basically boils down to: men are terrified of and hate themselves.

ding ding ding

I thought that was all of humanity

also flipside: men are terrified of and hate women

It's the half of humanity who apparently fear waking up in the morning and finding that their penis has been replaced with a vagina.

flipside more liek sameside

men are terrified of women's soap

feel like the duke cannon fbook page is just sitting there, ripe....

What I really get from this is that men want fancy soap they pay their hard-earned dollars for, too.

giant soap that does NOT smell like ladies

and looks like a urinal disinfectant block

no for real I started using this loofah thing that was on clearance for like $3 with some dove liquid "man soap" and I am starting to see why such a scrubby thing is useful

i don't understand who this soap's audience thinks is holding them down exactly. who or what is this soap going to rescue them from? perhaps "pussified" in soap terms could stand for the decline of the blue collar working class. all bad things in these men's terms are either "womanly" or "gay" regardless of meaning of nuance, so i think that wraps up all the loose ends.

it's going to rescue them from the urge to use expensive soap that is girly. this is expensive manly soap. these people still want expensive soap. this soap is rough and tough in some way that you have to pay cash money for, unlike a zillion cheap-as-hell soaps that also come in a bar.

it is the $200 trucker hat of bar soaps

or more accurately, the artisan-made hand axe

I would applaud if the soap was actually a dead porcupine

surely the point of the big ass brick is that it will do more damage when you wrap it in a towel and use it to savagely beat your fat incompetent co-recruit?

There's a dead porcupine inside the soap?

xp it looks more like the kind of soap they'd use to scrub the floor of the 'head'

idk the commodity fetishism is as glaring as the gay panic -- if ~real men~ ever bought soap, back in the days of flintlock muskets, knifefighting monkeys and hereditrary syphilis, then it was presumably just whatever soap there was, since they were unlikely to patronize the sort of places that sold more than one soap

now even the most banal objects are sold in a hundred near-iterative forms, so producers attempt to successfully commodify an abstraction

'sexual adequacy' is just a more obvious fit for cosmetic goods than 'freedom', 'allure', 'discernment' etc

how is that stuff bacon? that's what bacon looks like!

is the secret to performance of a grizzly bear eating geoduck? or is it just there because it looks like a giant cock?

BITCH, GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY DR. PEPPER. IT'S NOT FOR YOU.

"You know this is just Diet Dr. Pepper in a different can, right?"

BUT THESE CALORIES ARE "MANLY."

if there are 10 manly calories in dr pepper 10, surely original dr pepper is 15x as manly
