Wow what is wrong with these companies? So incredibly tone deaf! What does the rest of the email say?

DialSquare · 28/08/2022 12:21

I got that too. Immediately unsubscribed and won't be buying from them again.

ChagSameachDoreen · 28/08/2022 13:14

Another one off my list.

"Menstruators." Honestly! At least it's more factually accurate than "blenders". But still a no from me.

It suggests products to help with PMS and periods…and then mentions a brand “founded by female doctors and gynaecologists”.

The irony there is clearly lost on them.

😁

WomaninBoots · 28/08/2022 13:22

But yes. The can fuck off with their menstruators, blenders etc. Fuck off to the fucking moon.

WomaninBoots · 28/08/2022 13:22

Lol. Bleeeeeeeeders.

I laughed about it then did it myself!

MsMarvellous · 28/08/2022 13:37

Blenders has had me laughing 🤣. Thank you!

ParvuliThankYouDebbie · 28/08/2022 14:49

Had a WTF moment when I opened that email this morning. They didn’t actually have to have that heading at all, they could have just advertised the products, feels like trolling.

PurgatoryOfPotholes · 28/08/2022 16:30

Thoughtful of them to nominate themselves as a candidate to be let go in your personal cutbacks.

IcakethereforeIam · 28/08/2022 18:50

Blenders! Sticks or jugs?

Thank you, I needed a laughGrin

GertrudeKerfuffle · 28/08/2022 20:43

To be fair, I feel like my insides have been blended for six days a month.

AnneLovesGilbert · 28/08/2022 20:46

Absolute short sighted twats.

Are you all telling them why you’re leaving? It’s worth it.

figmaofmyimagination · 28/08/2022 20:47

Haven’t these small business learned not to alienate their target market yet? Ridiculous.

FredGarland · 28/08/2022 20:49

I unsubscribed immediately as well. I'd love to know how many women did the same.
Headlining the email that way was a definite choice.

FlorettaB · 28/08/2022 20:52

They just don’t get it.

Polly99 · 28/08/2022 22:45

Yep, I unsubscribed too. They can fuck off.

Same here.

Glitteratitar · 29/08/2022 11:07

It’s nothing but a token gesture.

This was further down in the email - why does it matter whether this company has female gynaecologists and doctors if sex means nothing… They clearly fail to see how stupid they look!

They'll think sex matters, to a narrow, and very constricted, extent. They'll admit that only 50% of the population ever experiences menstrual bleeding and that is prob as far as they're willing to go. It's not that sex doesn't matter, it's that someone has leapt on the opportunity to push the message that women shoule accept being depersonified, and should accept being referred to by our bodily functions, even as he or she tried to encourage women to spend money.

The person writing that knew what men and women were. That is what was pushing them!

Alternatively, the marketing dept has concluded they have more female customers who want to be called "menstruators" or already think they are morally obliged to accept it, than they have the reverse.
