Witnessing exploitation of men with advertisements

[Masculine_ManParticipant 2735]

So tonight I was watching Monday Night Football at a friend’s house. I haven’t had cable in a while so I’ve been free from
Advertisement poisoning for a while. I noticed a commercial that changed the atmosphere with the music, the tone of the narrator and some simp searching through a jewelry story. The narrator said “your lover, your spouse, your best friend, keep this in mind for Christmas.” I looked at the date and I thought how inappropriate. Halloween isn’t even here and these
clowns are starting. The jeweler was Kay’s btw. Anyone else saw this commercial?

If it costs you your peace of mind, then it is too expensive.

I don’t watch TV. Can’t avoid radio commercials at work, but I tend to tune that s~~~ out. They are pandering to men as well. Buy this manly stuff, you’ll feel like a man. We all know it’s utter BS. Feeling like a man is free.

Mainly only see ads on YouTube when you cannot skip them, it has been ages since I saw an ad that made me want to buy the product.

I don’t ever see commercials for women buying men anything. I never see a commercial like…

“Hey ladies, keep this in mind for your man this holiday season”

Nope, because men are expected to give give give and women just want want want everything. I’m glad I learned of female nature before I ever spent money on some expensive ass jewelry.

Feminism is a movement where opinions are presented as facts and emotions are presented as evidence.

No, but Walmart has Christmas all set up with shelves loaded, orniments, trees, Christmas GALORE! With Halloween mixed in! Just the way Satan wants it! Oh so sacrilegious! I feel the demons walking beside me trying to get me back to the plantation! Good thing my GOD GIVEN MGTOW EYES DON’T DECEIVE ME!

I can feel the devil walking next to me…

When commercials aren’t exploiting men, they are out to make men look like we’re dimwitted losers and I just hate it. Geico is a good example.

By the way, when I was in Florida in July of 1995, I saw Christmas decorations up at stores. There’s places that have holiday decorations up year round. Hell, we have a store (formally a mansion they turned into a store) where they have a Christmas section. I love Christmas, but when it’s 90 degrees outside and I’m in shorts, I don’t want to see it.

You know what I did about that? I took up candlemaking. It’s quite easy. Melt some wax in a double boiler (which you can make with just a smaller pan inside a larger one with water in it), pour it into molds with some heavy cotton cord pre-strung through the center. Let it cool.

Voila, instant Christmas presents. People like them even better because you made them and they will mention that they used them next time the power goes out.

If you want to get fancy, you can buy silicon or metal molds and a spray so they quick release.

Combine this with a bag of homemade, vacuum packed beef jerky or smoked salmon and you have a present they will never forget and that cost very little.

F~~~ consumerism.

Although January is a good time to find buys on ebay or craigslist for stuff you’re needing/wanting. People sell their presents or whatever the present replaced for cheap.

Oh, and if you live anywhere near a beekeeper, do yourself a favor and buy a big block of beeswax and make candles out of it. They’re normally really expensive, but they are amazing candles that burn hotter, brighter, and longer than regular wax and it smells nice too.

Works the same as regular wax for making candles, just a tiny bit stickier.

I noticed the other day in a commercial for what I think was Levi’s? Who the f~~~ knows anymore, commercials are so out there. Anyways, it was supposed to be the typical “morning after” sort of situation: They show the guy out at a coffee place. Girl wakes up, guy’s gone. She feels dejected, starts moping around. Guy’s shown walking around, but only his legs. Anyways, the end of the commercial is that she opens the door and he’s back and brought coffee and bagels like a good little dog. She grabs him by his shirt and pulls him inside. You know, because nothing gets a woman ready to roar quite like a servile little boy.

The fact is that I’ve pretty much turned off my brain to ads. Youtube, TV, or otherwise. In fact, I think it’s the dumbest investment for a company because instead of focusing on production and building a quality product that will get word of mouth recommendations, which is what most people ACTUALLY value, they aim for the TV-trained folks and waste everyone else’s time.
