Strong Enough For A Man
Now Playing: Law & Order
Topic: Commercials

When I was a kid, there was a series of commercials about an Irish dude talking about how much he loved Irish Spring, and then whatever woman he was sitting next to would say "It's manly, yes, but I like it too!" And there was another series of commercials about how Secret deodorant is strong enough for a man, but made for a woman.

It didn't seem fair that women got to use Irish Spring, but men didn't get to use Secret. It seemed like all the women's rights movement made men's stuff accessible to women, but there wasn't a men's movement making women's stuff accessible to them.

In fairness, though, when I say "men's stuff" I mean "pretty much everything".

On the other hand, while I know a lot of women who look good in jeans, I hardly know any dudes who wear skirts. Or want to.
