Yup, it was inevitable that the ammosexuals would show up.
Of course this “community” never acknowledges women, who invented the idea of thinking about what you should carry around every day, hence purses. Dudebros think they invented the notion of laying out your stuff and putting it in pockets. Meanwhile they never bring the stuff that’s actually useful, like chapstick, tissues, breath mints, etc. As soon as someone invents Tactical Chapstick, they’ll be all over it.

There’s some amazing rebranding of products considered traditionally feminine to appeal to men by making the branding either dull or “manly”
Faith in nature seem to have toned down their “for men” shampoo and body washes, I remember them being much more RRRR MAN
compared to
But the one that gets me is the metallic colours and angular futuristic design of Tena’s For Men line of pads and protective underwear.
compared to
Now the traditional Tena branding is decidedly feminine in that way that’s very particular to hygiene products but there’s definitely a middle ground between it and the box that feels like it’s trying to make insecure men feel a bit better about needing protection.

And of course the manly version costs 15% less. This is the well-documented Pink Tax.
Just don’t get those ends mixed up. Boy is that embarrassing.

I still love (for very weird definitions of “love”) the shameless Bic for Women biros. They’re pink! And cost more!

Just for perspective, my current ChapStick is only 0.15 oz, and cotton candy flavored (because I was always jealous of the girls in grade school who used to get that Dr. Pepper flavored lip gloss, the brand which I cannot remember the name).
ETA: Ooh, now I think I remember…Lip Smacker, I think. I have no idea where to buy this stuff off the shelf in San Diego.

It’s actually 0.56 oz, and they make it clear it’s not for anyone jealous of teenage girls
Any man who ventures into the great outdoors is at war with the elements, and that fight cannot be won with a dainty little chapstick that tastes like strawberry smoothies.
Tested by active-duty military personnel, the unique formulation with SPF 30 holds up in the harshest conditions, even withstanding temperatures approaching 140 degrees. With a blood orange mint flavor, it tastes like it’s designed for men, not teenage girls.
Like most of these products I suspect their target audience is half people who think it’s hilarious and are laughing at the idiots who take it seriously and half the idiots who take it seriously.
