Thinking about complaining about an ad for razors

I'm thinking of complaining about an ad I just saw for "razors for men".

Surely that should be "razors for people who have beards"

Double standards 😡

Yes do that ! I don't feel safe thinking about those bigoted razors....

Here's an example of the way women are erased but men are not:
they think the government should not get to treat 50% of the population like second-class citizens, and that pregnant people should be allowed to decide what to do with their own bodies, just like men can decide to, say, have a vasectomy without a bunch of elected officials weighing in.

I have emphasised the two important words here. Note that both references are about biological sex here, but the inclusive language has evaporated only 'women', not 'men.'

For people with hair surely? I shave my legs on occasion.

But then the use of the word ‘hair’ could be problematic as it may offend those persons with male patterned baldness. Isn’t that an offence these days?

Oh yes, calling someone bald is sexual harassment.

Obviously haven't seen Gilette's advert about trans men shaving:

Every day it gets ridiculouser and ridiculouser.
