Saw this post on reddit about the Gillette ad where the poster outlined (with an analogy) why he was upset with it

Want to know your thoughts

Could it be rectified by adding the word “some” at the beginning? And maybe changing black to men on both? Ohhhh maybe that’s what your trying to point out. The post shows that All men harass women, only black men are criminlas? Well that’s BS. But there are some issues/weaknesses within every culture!

@Mindful in the Gillette ad some felt men were being demonised and a lot of feminists responded with that last line. The poster compared this to racism to show how ridiculous their justification was

True but to say some Italians are not family oriented would statistically be untrue. Most are family oriented , and even when they move, they move as a family unit. Many AMERICANS move as far away from family and find themselves isolated. So yes there are good and negative stereo types that are true of some cultures. To say that many Jews don’t care about money is also a falsehood.so let’s not deny what our cultures are known for, but rather address it head on, in a healthy way not by pretending it isn’t true where it is true. Not by ignoring that some white criminals don’t get arrested. Let’s not ignore that some black men need more positive male role models to overcome obstacles even today. Some men are sick in the way they treat women@SW-User
