Just look at the thumbnails of those videos let alone the content. That girly/soft low test stuff would never have passed in the pre 2013 world. Would've been laughed at a ton.
I'm sure it's all market research and focus groups. Companies see women as the main consumers and resort to the lowest denominators to sell products

It just looks silly. I mean, I never thought such thing would exist, it just sounds like they implemented it for a joke.

See, the link you posted somehow doesn't look unmasculine despite having dancing and flashy colours. It's just pulled off well.

Like, look at how they advertised old clothing. So badass and everyone thought nothing of it, just general ideas. Compare this to the 0 test garbage videos dolphinpilot uploaded on the 1st page.

That is EXACTLY what I'm talking about, nothing more and nothing less.


Thanks, feels great knowing there are other people thinking the same stuff.

But what happened though? It looked so awesome pre 2013, now it's just incredibly feminine/low test.
