Of course I frown on manscaping–especially in the armpit/chestal area–and ordinarily, I’d pass right by this clip. However, you gotta admit it’s a pretty weird thing when Gillette spends a wad of cash on an animated spot to convince impressionable young guys that they ought to trim their pubes just so their ‘nads will look bigger. Not a weird and wonderful thing, mind you. Just weird.
Personally, I blame Vin Diesel and Brazilian waxes for all this anti-hair sentiment. How long will it be until my worst fear is realized and I awake to a world of Zac Efron clones?

Weird: I thought the same thing. I mean, you've got a talented ad agency backing you up, so why didn't they try to make the shit funny?
