Since the epic fail of the Gilette advert (which they are now allegedly removing dislikes and negative comments from) I've been thinking of a realistic alternative advert/video that could counter each of it's attempted points with more realistic ones that every man would've experienced.
The first scenes could be kept but in the context of this ad these men would be looking in the mirror wondering what's wrong with them and why they are not good enough for a woman, highlighting discrimination by females and the fact that women may not like them due to their age, race or hair colour (the fellow ginger guy at the end).
The tagline under the Gilette logo should be changed to "The Best a Woman Can Get???"
The bullying scenes should be changed to show girls laughing and sniggering on the other end of the phone as bullying via text is proven to be 90% more done by girls than boys. It should also show a male bully physically intimidating a smaller male and then show girls in the background playing with their hair and smiling at the bully, attracted by his behaviour. And then another shot of girls laughing at a guy in school due to his looks or race.
Seeing as they couldn't even seem to find a real video of a man grabbing a woman't butt and had to create footage for this then this should be replaced with real footage of women squeezing men's muscles and six packs and asses etc. Easy to find.
The guy correcting a woman should be kept but then show a guy in the same situation directly after just getting on with it and not giving a shit like anyone should.
The metoo parts should show all of the false rape allegations that have been found out.
The guy at the pool party should also show a woman approaching a man an calling him "baby" as well as showing a nice average guy approaching some average or unattractive girls and them reacting to him with disgust and laughing in his face and mocking him before turning approaching some good looking loudmouth guys who aren't really interested in them. The guy getting ready to approach a girl on the street should be replaced with women checking out a man on the street and asking for his number which happens more than men doing this.
etc etc
