My boycott list is huge.
There are going to be no brands left at this rate.

MAC have a long history of supporting queer causes and promoting inclusivity with make up.

This is right on brand for them.

People of all sexes and gender can wear make up.

Honestly, some people just want to hound Dylan across the internet until she disappears. Its disgusting and bullying behaviour.

If you don't like Dylan, fine. Personally, not my cup of tea either and wouldn't have heard of her if not for people complaining.

The vitriol directed at this young person and the global scale of the relentless criticism and bullying is shameful.

Good on MAC for being one of the first global companies to genuinely stand behind the queer community- I don't think they're going to back off now and nor should they.

At this point i think these big companies are taking the absolute piss and i hope it backfires badly on them. As for the weird one in a dress i think it is all a publicity kick to see just how far he can go and what people let him get away with. Society seems to be failing miserably at the moment. As for the Maybeline ad, he was DEFINITELY 'born with it' and im not sure we are pretending otherwise.

Agree.

They're hardly 'slapping an HIV' message on it. Maybe google their track record in this space before you criticise it.

DM must be laughing all of the way to the bank. When this USP fails he can move onto the next gimmick. I don't blame him for milking it while people throw money at this persona.
While I agree that it's fine to have men sell makeup, don't the ambassadors need to apply it well so the product looks good ? There's loads of LGBT makeup gurus online who would fulfill that requirement better. DM is a glorified Audrey Hepburn cosplayer. There are much more talented cosplay makeup artists who would make brands looks better.
The person who pointed out the Attack on Titan mouth is spot on 😂

agreed

Not so long ago, if a man was dressing up in knee socks and pigtails, we'd be warned to stay well clear and that he clearly needed mental health help. Now we must "celebrate" him or risk being hounded for our "transphobia". I don't know why the sudden shift happened but frankly, I'm sick of it. This is a fully grown adult man pretending to be a little girl. It's not transphobia to be concerned about that.

No, it is not 'bullying' to comment negatively. This is not someone innocently going about their day to day life. This is someone intentionally seeking comment, publicity, reaction, and making a living by it. They are getting rich on mocking and insulting women. The jury is out as to how consciously they may be doing it.

The whole 'if they're trans whatever they do no one must ever say anything negative or it's bullying' trope is pushing it.

I dont believe he is trans at all. He's a fame hungry young man desperate for attention. He does nothing to further the cause of genuine trans women with his little girl cos play.

Yes, like one of Ken Dodd's Diddymen.

Oh thats been done along with skipping through meadows in teeny tiny shorts!

Oh waaaah poor Dylan being hounded across the internet - for fucks fucking sake

Dylan is making a fuck load of money from taking the absolute piss out of women. He’s met the fucking president for Christsake. He’s so fucking offensive to women & yet there are ppl still feeling sorry for this utter attention seeking narcissist????

Jesus fucking christ

I think this is where I’m at too. I was utterly
offended by the Dylan/Nike sports bra advert and feel very strongly that men do not belong in women’s spaces, but I don’t particularly object to men in general advertising makeup, with the exception of Dylan with that ridiculous parody act - horribly insulting to women. I would say though that it’s not something that would speak to me or encourage me to buy their products. I’ve used Bobbi Brown for years and have always found it brilliant for subtle, ‘like you but better’ makeup. I went to the Bobbi Brown counter in Selfridges a while back to see what was new and it was staffed by two trans men/men in drag makeup and it really didn’t speak to me as a customer. That’s not the look I want so I wasn’t encouraged to stop and try anything.

I meant to type two trans women, not trans men there 🙄. Really heavy drag makeup on them both - even if it was nicely done, it’s not a look I want (or would have associated with the Bobbi Brown brand). Would have expected it more at MAC for example.

Women are the main consumers and the target client base for make-up brands. If women didn’t buy into the beauty industry, these brands couldn’t survive.

Trans women also wear make-up, and to a lesser extent, so do some men (guyliner etc). Dylan, however, is openly mocking women with a very ditsy, silly, flailing girl act, as evidenced in the Days of Girlhood videos.

If Dylan is employed to advertise make-up, or Nike sports bras or any other product that is aimed at women, that means a natal woman has missed out on a paid gig.

These brands think they’re being inclusive but they’re actually excluding and insulting their main client base.

Then he'll be vrying what a victim he was and how he was pressured into this shit onf OH, His poor mental health.

Like others, I can't suddenly approve of Dylan in that ad, just because they're not actually saying the words this is what a woman does. Parodying women is Dylan's whole schtick. In fact, he identifies as a little girl. Or did, presumably the pushback was a little stronger for that.

Dylan isn't acting like any woman who is advertising make up, either.

It's very theatrical performance, more like drag. Which, if that was Dylan's purpose, I don't think anyone would care as much. Men wearing make up? It's not exactly groundbreaking.

And yes to The George Soros foundation funding these companies. And funnelling it through a compliance index, similar to the Stonewall index. I read years and years ago how much money was being pumped into the promotion of transgenderism, and one of the donors was George Soros.

Well exactly Dylan won't last forever what will happen when someone newer and shinier comes along and Dylan is sidelined ?

🤣

This

I agree Dylan is fame hungry but on what basis do you think he isn't genuinely "trans"? How are you defining trans? Why doesn't Dylan doesn't fit that definition?

I'm all up for them using a man to advertise make up. But they need to choose a man who treats his fellow human beings respectfully and Dylan hasn't. Choose a different man. It speaks volumes to choose this one.

Even forgetting the gender ideology stuff, the emaciated body and manic-like behaviour would not make me want any person like this to advertise my product. What damage would they do to my brand reputation in the future? They are paying someone who has a very unstable life and health. It’s bizarre and shows that fashion/beauty advertising is very short-term game.

Exactly
I can't imagine they would choose an actual woman who looked and behaved in that manner, to represent their brand.
