What is a Woman? Advert. The tide is truly turning...

"Florida-based watch manufacturer Egard Watches has created an ad spot in defense of biological women’s rights.

What are the details?
The video opens with footage of accomplished women, including female athletes and others, and shows women through the decades and even centuries fighting for equal rights.

"What is a woman?" the female narrator says. "Is women's history of achievements quickly being erased? Is a woman a feminine force of nature? Is a woman a sister, a daughter, a mother? Is a woman the wonder of childbirth?"

"Is a woman a caregiver?" the narrator continues. "Is a woman a warrior who fought for her place?"

The video continues, "Is that now being taken away, soon to be forgotten? Is that not worth protecting? And how long do we sit idly by and not stand for the sacred value of womanhood as it loses all meaning?"

"Because we believe that womanhood is a birthright," the narrator concludes.

What else?
In a statement provided to Blaze Media, Egard CEO Ilan Srulovicz said, “The overwhelming majority of Americans are appalled by Big Tech, Big Business, and Big Government’s coordinated campaign to erase the hard-fought gains earned by untold millions of amazing women in our society."

"Yet, almost nobody is speaking for them," Srulovicz continued. "We crafted an ad campaign that celebrates our grandmothers, mothers, sisters, aunts, and daughters, and everything they represent to paint a stark contrast to the lies we are all being told."

Srulovicz added, "The push for transgender rights is no longer about equality, it’s now a cleverly-crafted lie that comes at the expense of women. We ask all Americans to join us to speak truth.”

This is a VERY powerful advert

Fantastic. Absolute, unflinching, uncompromising truth.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 13/04/2022 10:10

That's really powerful. And snippets from U.K. press as well as American!

BenCooperisaGod · 13/04/2022 10:12

Ooh i need a new watch.

SushiShopSearch · 13/04/2022 10:12

Thanks for sharing. Hope Monsoon see this.

Bargoed · 13/04/2022 10:13

There's a necklace 19.99

Wow! Brilliant. But it's very painful to see that the senator asking for a definition of woman is a white Republican, and it's a black woman - Biden's Supreme Court nominee -- saying she can't give a definition.

Twitter will be fun

ButlerianJihad · 13/04/2022 10:19

Oh my goodness.

I was also struck by Glinners recent interview with Sonia Applebys Lawyer, who did not seem to fully comprehend all the issues at hand and their implications, but clearly had a sense that there was some capital in committing to the fight nonetheless. This seems significant and indicative of a serious shift in the currents in all this - even if Egard are simply cynical marketers who have picked up on a changing tide and see dollar signs - (though I do believe it's more sincere that that) it really is starting to feel like a critical mass/tipping point is approaching. What's going to happen is anyone's guess. But the shift from only the very bravest who speak out knowing it will come at an enormous cost to people seeing a bandwagon and deciding to jump on is really really huge. There is real momentum building.

ColMustardInTheLibrary · 13/04/2022 10:21

Only Egard watches for me in future. Fabulous ad.

dudsville · 13/04/2022 10:26

Thank you for this link.

Robin843 · 13/04/2022 10:27

Well this has cheered me right up. I need a new watch and they sell a necklace engraved with "womanhood is a birthright". I did the spin the wheel thing for a special offer and got 15% off!

Nnique · 13/04/2022 10:27

Yes I will certainly be buying my next watch(es) from them! And I shall email to tell them why.

Necklace on back order - suspect that may increase!

From the blurb:

The womanhood necklace represents the truth, that Womahood is not something that can be appropriated, that the hard fought battles and achievements of women can not be erased... that Womanhood is in fact a birthright.

The necklace represents a movement to show solidarity and pride in what a woman is.

The womanhood necklace is a straight pendant necklace with the movements phrase "Womanhood is a birthright".

MarshaBradyo · 13/04/2022 10:33

That got to me

Well said

Nnique · 13/04/2022 10:33

The necklace is on my list as well. One for myself and one for each of my daughters.

Mochudubh · 13/04/2022 10:35

@Bargoed

There's a necklace 19.99

Brilliant!

Not getting much steam on Twitter though, mainly from the Washington Post

Cheeseycheeseycheesecheese · 13/04/2022 10:36

This actually made me cry. I'm new to this board and more of a reader than a poster. But this advert really resonated with me, it's scary how much has been fought for in the way of women's rights in the past 100 years, and how much is being erased so easily it would seem.

Nnique · 13/04/2022 10:36

In fact I think I will gift one to each of the women in our (very big) extended family.

We have birthdays in every month of the year, sometimes multiples.

Womanhood absolutely is a birthright.

Mochudubh · 13/04/2022 10:36

Meant to add below the link (got over excited).

This item is a pre-order. Due to supply shortages this item will ship Late May

10% of all profits will go to women's rights charities
