It's not about what race you are, what you know, religion you agree with or what choices you agree with. I think I think it's going to start changing when we can really identify step one.
When a razor commercial becomes a cultural flashpoint, you know there's more to the story. In this thought-provoking episode of 'Mental Health News Radio', hosts Aaron and Maia Huey from Beyond Risk and Back, along with Kristin Sunanta Walker, dive into the infamous Gillette ad that stirred up conversations worldwide. This isn't just about shaving; it's about masculinity, societal expectations, and the power of marketing. The trio examines how the commercial's message intersects with feminism, consumer behavior, and mental health.
They also tackle the role of manufacturers in shaping public perceptions and discuss how advertising can influence body image and gender roles. Aaron brings his expertise from Firemountain Residential Treatment Center, where he works with teens facing addiction and mental health challenges, adding depth to the conversation. Maia, a marketing professional, offers insights into the commercial's strategic impact. Together, they explore cultural shifts and the role millennials play in driving change.
This episode isn't just a critique; it's a call to reflect on how media shapes our views and behaviors. Tune in for a nuanced discussion that goes beyond the headlines to explore the deeper implications of one of the most talked-about ads in recent memory.
