Selling Masculinity
A recent trend in corporate marketing is to attract consumers through social responsibility. This strategy typically involves demonstrating how the company makes a difference in the community or raising awareness of a social justice issue related to the product or service that the company sells. This activity focuses on commercials created by two different companies—Gilette and Egard—and how those commercials use social responsibility to promote cultural values and beliefs surrounding masculinity.
