Ok but if the “girls candy” was flavored as strawberry, does that mean that the “boy’s candy” is flavored like skulls??? Because if so, i completely understand! cannibalism is the most manly thing that a 5 year old can do! 😃
I always found it odd how girls are encouraged if they show an interest in "boy things" yet a little boy will get made fun of if he shows interest in anything even the SLIGHTEST BIT "girly". I've also noticed that even gender neutral clothes are masculine-esque. Its like masculine is the default and femininity is the performance. Side note: the pink Ouija board actually comes with a deck of question cards like "what sport will I play in High School?" "What will I be when I grow up?" 😂😂
Yes! As an agender striving to be androgynous, it is SO annoying that masculine is like the default. You know, there's gyny at the end of that andro for a reason.
Mhhh not my experience. Was absolutely ridiculed and inappropriately questioned by family, parents, neighbours and even teachers as to why I hate feminine things that are being forced down my throat And now, I finally have the space away from those people to realise I’m a closeted trans/bigendered person :’]
the funniest, weirdest gendered thing I’ve ever seen was when I was in Daiso in 2017 and saw “Pocky's for Men.” It was just regular pokis??? but the background was a rich color of teal fading into dark brown LOL

As an autistic male I had a hard time sticking to social gender norms as a kid and was bullied a lot. I just don't understand how my perfume smells "feminine" to people. Smells don't have genitals.
I feel you, man. As an autistic woman who wanted to buy all the “boy toys” as a little girl, you know like those bug kits, dragons and bionicals and stuff. I would always get weird looks and reactions when I looked over at the “boy” side of the toy store. It would be considered pretty common now; Especially since a lot of little girls won’t have to pretend to have interests in “girl” toys and little boys won’t have to hide their enjoyment of Barbies or something. (I really hope they don’t have to anymore…) like… just let people be. I’m glad the gendered stuff is slowly dying out and people are not giving a shit about what you buy. It’s still taking it’s sweet ass time.
no wonder you were bullied... a musky scent is normally associated with masculinity. you probably had "perfume" which is generally made for women therefore making you smell feminine. no one likes a feminine smelling guy unless you gay
Not gonna lie, as a cis-woman, I would totally use a grenade (not black pepper) bath bomb. I would totally yell “grenade” as I throw it in the bath and giggle to myself.
you being a cis-woman (or a woman in general, idk why you felt the need to add “cis”) has nothing to do with your interest for a bath bomb grenade, it’s just a personality thing you seem to be so influenced by gendered products that you think it matters that u being a woman and liking that style bath bomb is something nutty or quirky, hence why you made this comment with this writing
@@totlicker Sir, what does it say about you that you just had to write that reply? It is a product marketed to men.

Still remember when i was 10 years old i was bullied by my male peers because i brought strawberry flavored hello panda cookies to school just because the packaging is pink.

Dude that bath bomb...are we taking a bath or marinating a chicken? Also, I would totally buy cookies labeled "tough princess" with a princess holding a gun on it.
We need more of the “How to get Gorgeous” books for boys. Nobody’s teaching these men hygiene because a lot of boy moms treat them like men before they actually are.
I would *love* to know how to get gorgeous, honestly. I've got this thick head of hair like Brendan Fraser in "The Mummy" and zero idea of how to maintain it, because my parents just made me get a buzzcut throughout my childhood, no matter how many times I told them I didn't want one, because "boys aren't supposed to have long hair." And that's the one part of my physical appearance that I actually *do* have any amount of confidence in.
I used to sell toys. People would refuse to buy something for a girl if it wasn't pink. I said to a few of them that pink used to be exclusively a boys colour as it was considered a dilution of red in the victorian era. But alas, girls were not allowed to have blues, greens, yellows, reds, whites, blacks, or oranges, whether pastel or not. The occasional purple or mauve was accepted by consomers. Did you read some of the amazon reviews for women's bics? When I was a teenager, I did wonder if man size tissues were a reference to other things that men use tissues for
I work at an Elementary school. There’s this one boy in kindergarten who wears shirts that are marketed towards girls (Ex: Monster High, My Little Pony, etc. And those shirts come in the shades pink, sky blue, and light green). And nobody said anything about it.
That first bit reminds me of the time someone was upset with a wrapping paper set for not having any "boy colours" 😭 when it was red, gold, and purple 😭
Some of the items shown here weren't gendered though. The Skull-Ear-Plugs were just that; Skull Ear Plugs. And the Tools stuff; well it works. If you look into more "posh"/expensive Tool Brands, you'll see that they've either "a range of colours" to offer or even designe whole product lines which are tailored for "Young Students and Housewives/Housemens"; Bosch has for an example a tiny drill which only can be used for putting Ikea Stuff together. Which costs the same as a regular Drill which could actually drill through wood and into walls. But its tiny. And its pretty. And it comes in Black, Blue or as a special edition sometimes in Cyan or Pink! And it sells like crazy.
Once in middle school, I was doing like a “mall scavenger hunt” for my friends birthday and one of the things we had to get was a perfume sample and it was bonus points if it was on our arm or something. So I asked this woman for a sample for the first scented thing I found, and she was like “if I put it on your arm, it’s not going to smell right, it’s meant for men and it’s supposed to interact w the testosterone in their skin to make the correct smell.” And I’m like “it’s for a scavenger hunt...”
I first started noticing the ridiculousness of gender roles as a child, watching commercials on kids TV for toys that were, essentially, 2 versions of the exact same thing, but with aesthetic differences. Polly Pocket vs. Mighty Max, Sky Dancers vs. Dragon Flyz, etc. I knew I was supposed to take it all as a given, but I always thought "...Why though? Isn't this weird?...It feels weird."
I noticed it as a child, too, but never viewed as ridiculous because I was blind to everything. My family (mainly extended) bought me those ugly My Little Pony toys and doll play sets, but at after school care or with my guy friends I’d be playing with whatever toys I wanted to. But no matter the toy, if I could make a weird story with them or have them fight each other I would. At some point I got a hold of my dad’s old car toys (idk if they were Hot Wheels). It rocked because now I could make cars crash into each other in the comfort of my own home. Gendered toys are ridiculous and kids should be encouraged to play with whatever they want.
Might also be useful to mention that often the womens version is more expensive. Like womens razors are more expensive than the same one for men, I bet that “lady pen” thing was more than a normal bic even if you got one with the thumb bit in like blue or black. I also bet the pink hammer cost more than a bog standard one made of the exact same materials! I think they call it the pink tax in U.K… maybe not in the US I’m not sure
It’s because women will typically pay more for the ones labeled for women, even tho the “male” one does the exact same thing. They do the same things it just depends on the ones you buy
It’s called “the pink tax” I think! It’s when pink stuff are sold more extensively because it’s more feminine and the pink draws it to a bigger audience because pink is a REALLY popular colour
No but this is perfect, as just yesterday I watched a video on a guy wanting "manly slime" for his sons and I sat there in stunned silence like- I never thought humanity would evolve to such a phase. MANLY SLIME?!
tbh things like this can make women being into feminine things feel lowkey embarrassing, like the stereotypes about women who appreciate stereotypically “womanly things” (yk like pink or glitter) being sort of idk airhead ish? it makes me feel super dumb for being into bisexual color palettes (not this super random gendered stuff obvi) feel almost shameful 😭😭
I like buying all my stuff in bright colours. It's really annoying when the higher quality products are only available in dark blue or iron grey. Like that time I wanted a pink laptop but it had less memory and a poor processor while costing twice as much as a grey one. I got the grey one and bought a pink case for it. They should just make good quality products available in a wider range of colours.
The only appeal I find to gendered product is the different packaging. But like.. if they just did different packaging (without linking it to gender) they'd probably be even more popular.
Whenever I watch these videos, I think back to a story my friend told me. One time, he was at bed, bath, and beyond, and he was looking at the candles. For some reason, the scents were split between “female” and “male”, and, as one would expect, the “female” scents were elegant sounding, using scents like lavender and idk roses and stuff, and then under the “male” scents there was a candle that was legit called “man town” 💀💀💀
About the last one. There's actually this shower gel company (at least in Poland) that sells quite fruity ones for men (my family for example currently has one that smells like red orange and saffron)
I think they're gendered because I think biological men and biological women have different skin types, but I'm just going off of what someone who was trans (MTF) said about using mens soap
Okay here is my hot take: a bit back everyone was mad at A male celebrity (I literally don’t remember who) for making more masculine branded makeup for guys and everyone was pissed because like why are you ascribing gender to makeup? Are you saying guys can’t use girly packaged things? And you know what fair point, but I feel like having a more masculine or even androgynous option is a good thing? It sort feels like another way to have like gender affirming practices or maybe you just prefer more masculine and androgynous vibes and that’s cool too. It also might be good for guys that don’t have enough confidence yet to get the extra sparkly makeup because it’s still pretty taboo. Idk it just sort of felt like people were hating on it for no reason, but maybe that’s just me. (Fuck the glass elevator tho, and fuck the pink tax)
I see what you mean, though it probably wouldn't apply to a majority of these products, as they're not really gender-specific by default (I doubt some trans girl would only buy pink hammers...) (also, btw, I think it's called a glass ceiling XD)
While I do see what you're getting at, when products put some sort of "masculine" quote or have "men's only products" in blue packaging constantly putting women's packages as 'little princess' and overall bubbly types of packaging, it makes it in a way that men are stronger, tougher or CAN ONLY use a certain product because 'everyone knows that this is for men, and men only' It's unnecessary to make a product decided to men or women when no product is for a specific gender unless we're talking about pads and tampons. Why would you need to have packing for "men pens" and "women pens" when they are literal PENS! and why would you need to have "makeup for men" when there are plenty of pallet's that have just a neutral black color, have green leaves at most, or even just a plain white color with the name of the pallet in an orange color.
@@honeybear5792 while pens and such are ridiculous to gender, makeup, soap and hygienic products actually *should* have a bit of a differentiation. Men and women have different skin. Collagen bonds are shaped differently, and men have typically, thicker skin. Women typically have thinner layers and a more sensitive surface. Oil glands and such are also quite different between sexes.
@@victoriamasters different ingredients are used. Men's deodorant has more odor protection ingredients because men's sweat is typically more pungent due to bacteria as a result of having more fatty substances being sweat out. Often, it's not *just* sexism that has these sort of products be so different. It's like how women's items are often more expensive for a similar size compared to the men's version because there's a much wider ingredients list.
I think the way he marketed it if we're thinking of the same guy (there was a lot that came out) was annoying I remember seeing another one recently but in the ad none of the men were actually wearing any makeup in the ad (felt a lil exploitive) plus I feel like a decent amount of makeup is already gender neutral in packaging like foundation, concealer, even eyeshadow pallets mainly the neutral and all matte palettes
Imagine if companies keep going further and further, we would probably get, I don't know, genderised pet foods, genderised cellphones, genderised toilet papers, genderised tinned foods, or even genderised Christmas ornaments. Heck, there is a genderised Monopoly, the board game!
One time I saw wipes for “men” they were called dude wipes or something lol they were fully black and scented some weird scent it was so weird me and my brother were dying of laughter when we saw it
these products are so useless, and anything that is for women HAS to be pink ??? and for men it's always a dark tone of grey / black like what is the point lol i just wanna listen to music
I need to take a black pepper bath, now that I know what I’m supposed to smell like. I literally took a STRAWBERRY SCENTED BATH an hour ago, but apparently I MISSED THE MEMO I WAS SUPPOSED TO USE A BLACK PEPPER SCENT. I’ll be sure to correct my mistake on the next bath
Basically all of this summed up Girls : flowers, fruity, pink, feminine, soft, floral, dainty, girly, delicate, gentle, glitter, all things nice ✨😍🥰 Boys : WAR, BLOOD, DEATH, PAIN, AGONY, VIOLENCE, NOTHING PINK IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY AXE BODY SPRAY AND TESTOSTORONE It's embarrassing honestly

10:54 wow they are straight up SEASONING the men! this is a plot to create man soup. I hope they have a salt, cumin and garlic shower gel to go with it.
It’s the opposite in my family, strangely enough. I’d my little brother played with a doll my mom would be upset. But as a kid when I played with traditionally masculine toys no one cared. And when my younger sister started an interest in makeup they were initially hesitant (I never wore any).
Idk I think when done strategically it's funny, one of my sisters least favourite chocolate bars were yorkies but when ever she saw one she bought it, because and I quote "no one can tell me what I can or cannot eat" so I grew up liking yorkers not for the taste but the memory of my sister eating it and hating that she's eating it and complains about it just because "yorkies were for men"
I saw 4 toothbrushes that came in a “family” pack. It had the blue tall dad toothbrush that had thick bristles for their manly teeth. A slightly shorter purple toothbrush with significantly softer bristles (that’s probably on a normal toothbrush) to give the women that feminine look to their teeth. And two smaller toothbrushes (about the same size) one was light blue with tiny designs of Marvel superheroes and the other was light pink with tiny designs of Disney princess. How do I know what the bristles felt like? Because the package had a feel me opening on the part you literally have to put in your mouth.
I love the little sparkles all over your face when you move, beyond cute! I am like a magpie bird, I would like to know what specific product you used, if any?

I know it's not video related, apologies, haha.
Go to any Bass Pro Shop. Trust that you will find an infinite amount of gendered products. One in particular was toy trucks. Their were “boy” toys and they had businesses and science pictures on the side. Then there were “girl” trucks that were pink and had “princess” written on the side. So infuriating..

I also bet the pink hammer cost more than a bog standard one made of the exact same materials! I think they call it the pink tax in U.K… maybe not in the US I’m not sure
In the USA, too
I THOUGHT RAZORS ARE RAZER HEADPHONES 😭😭

It’s because women will typically pay more for the ones labeled for women, even tho the “male” one does the exact same thing. They do the same things it just depends on the ones you buy
"Summoning ominous spirits with malicious intent...but in a feminine way." Please put that on a t-shirt I'll buy it.
OKAY BUT ISTG EVERY SLEEPOVER I HAVE WITH MY BSF MY PERIOD LITERALLY ALWAYS STARTS AND I THINK SHE LIKE CURSES ME IN MY SLEEP OR SOMETHING IDK
Don't forget, pointlessly gendered women's products are both pink AND more expensive, usually.
Well sometimes those things are way softer and better quality which kinda explains the price difference.
if you mean tissues, i think it would be better if they label it as yk makeup use or stuff
@@afailedabortion
It’s called “the pink tax” I think! It’s when pink stuff are sold more extensively because it’s more feminine and the pink draws it to a bigger audience because pink is a REALLY popular colour
No but this is perfect, as just yesterday I watched a video on a guy wanting "manly slime" for his sons and I sat there in stunned silence like-
I never thought humanity would evolve to such a phase. MANLY SLIME?!
tbh things like this can make women being into feminine things feel lowkey embarrassing, like the stereotypes about women who appreciate stereotypically “womanly things” (yk like pink or glitter) being sort of idk airhead ish? it makes me feel super dumb for being into bisexual color palettes (not this super random gendered stuff obvi) feel almost shameful 😭😭
ah yes the internalised misogyny
LOL i think that’s internalized misogyny
Same like i really like cute stuff like kawaii fashion and stuff and it makes me feel shameful
Because femininity is mostly performative and stupid lol...
It’s the internalized misogyny
I like buying all my stuff in bright colours. It's really annoying when the higher quality products are only available in dark blue or iron grey. Like that time I wanted a pink laptop but it had less memory and a poor processor while costing twice as much as a grey one. I got the grey one and bought a pink case for it. They should just make good quality products available in a wider range of colours.
Or at least make the colors equal prices
They are slowly becoming available though
Can't forget about the men's military-themed baby care items! Because taking care of your child is soooo unmanly!
Truest thing I have read on internet for today.
is having sex with a woman gay?
What's going through those dudes' heads? "Ah, yes. Nothing more emasculating than providing for my own children."

GOT ME DYING ON THE FLOOR
The only appeal I find to gendered product is the different packaging. But like.. if they just did different packaging (without linking it to gender) they'd probably be even more popular.
Facts
Whenever I watch these videos, I think back to a story my friend told me. One time, he was at bed, bath, and beyond, and he was looking at the candles. For some reason, the scents were split between “female” and “male”, and, as one would expect, the “female” scents were elegant sounding, using scents like lavender and idk roses and stuff, and then under the “male” scents there was a candle that was legit called “man town” 💀💀💀
About the last one. There's actually this shower gel company (at least in Poland) that sells quite fruity ones for men (my family for example currently has one that smells like red orange and saffron)
“fruity” ;)
fruity 💅
help i thought of the wrong fruity
✨😩💅fRuItY😩💅✨
I think they're gendered because I think biological men and biological women have different skin types, but I'm just going off of what someone who was trans (MTF) said about using mens soap
A few years ago my mother got herself a toolbox for women and it's entirely in pink.
Can we just appreciate how Emily makes us smile every time she posts

Yes! I appreciate 🙂💗

"Murdering bugs is a gender neutral activity"
- Not even Emily (2022)
Okay here is my hot take: a bit back everyone was mad at A male celebrity (I literally don’t remember who) for making more masculine branded makeup for guys and everyone was pissed because like why are you ascribing gender to makeup? Are you saying guys can’t use girly packaged things? And you know what fair point, but I feel like having a more masculine or even androgynous option is a good thing? It sort feels like another way to have like gender affirming practices or maybe you just prefer more masculine and androgynous vibes and that’s cool too. It also might be good for guys that don’t have enough confidence yet to get the extra sparkly makeup because it’s still pretty taboo. Idk it just sort of felt like people were hating on it for no reason, but maybe that’s just me. (Fuck the glass elevator tho, and fuck the pink tax)
I see what you mean, though it probably wouldn't apply to a majority of these products, as they're not really gender-specific by default (I doubt some trans girl would only buy pink hammers...)
(also, btw, I think it's called a glass ceiling XD)
While I do see what you're getting at, when products put some sort of "masculine" quote or have "men's only products" in blue packaging constantly putting women's packages as 'little princess' and overall bubbly types of packaging, it makes it in a way that men are stronger, tougher or CAN ONLY use a certain product because 'everyone knows that this is for men, and men only'
It's unnecessary to make a product decided to men or women when no product is for a specific gender unless we're talking about pads and tampons.
Why would you need to have packing for "men pens" and "women pens" when they are literal PENS! and why would you need to have "makeup for men" when there are plenty of pallet's that have just a neutral black color, have green leaves at most, or even just a plain white color with the name of the pallet in an orange color.
@@honeybear5792 while pens and such are ridiculous to gender, makeup, soap and hygienic products actually *should* have a bit of a differentiation.
Men and women have different skin. Collagen bonds are shaped differently, and men have typically, thicker skin. Women typically have thinner layers and a more sensitive surface. Oil glands and such are also quite different between sexes.
@@victoriamasters different ingredients are used. Men's deodorant has more odor protection ingredients because men's sweat is typically more pungent due to bacteria as a result of having more fatty substances being sweat out.
Often, it's not *just* sexism that has these sort of products be so different. It's like how women's items are often more expensive for a similar size compared to the men's version because there's a much wider ingredients list.
I think the way he marketed it if we're thinking of the same guy (there was a lot that came out) was annoying
I remember seeing another one recently but in the ad none of the men were actually wearing any makeup in the ad (felt a lil exploitive)
plus I feel like a decent amount of makeup is already gender neutral in packaging like foundation, concealer, even eyeshadow pallets mainly the neutral and all matte palettes
Imagine if companies keep going further and further, we would probably get, I don't know, genderised pet foods, genderised cellphones, genderised toilet papers, genderised tinned foods, or even genderised Christmas ornaments. Heck, there is a genderised Monopoly, the board game!
Okay okay- But Emily’s hair looks amazing and super cute 😭
One time I saw wipes for “men” they were called dude wipes or something lol they were fully black and scented some weird scent it was so weird me and my brother were dying of laughter when we saw it
my kittle brither uses dude wipes. theyre for dude asses 🙄🙄🙄
@oddbiku same haha I just think it’s weird someone thought that that was a good idea lol
these products are so useless, and anything that is for women HAS to be pink ??? and for men it's always a dark tone of grey / black like what is the point lol i just wanna listen to music
Pink is iconic
It’s like there are two gender and they are strawberry shortcake and goth
11:20 when I saw this I said “BIC! I thought you were better than this 🤦🏾♀️”
I need to take a black pepper bath, now that I know what I’m supposed to smell like.
I literally took a STRAWBERRY SCENTED BATH an hour ago, but apparently I MISSED THE MEMO I WAS SUPPOSED TO USE A BLACK PEPPER SCENT.
I’ll be sure to correct my mistake on the next bath
No it’s too late. The SWAT team is on its way. Barricade your doors they’re coming for you
a strawberry scented bath sounds amazing
2:11 ok but why do I lowkey want that

As she's hating on strawberries for girls, all I see is her strawberry earrings dangling on her head 😂🤌🏻🍓
Basically all of this summed up
Girls : flowers, fruity, pink, feminine, soft, floral, dainty, girly, delicate, gentle, glitter, all things nice ✨😍🥰
Boys : WAR, BLOOD, DEATH, PAIN, AGONY, VIOLENCE, NOTHING PINK IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY AXE BODY SPRAY AND TESTOSTORONE
It's embarrassing honestly
W
Boys has blood sweat and gunpowder in there fr
I hate that everything is gendered, don’t get me wrong (and especially the pink tax), but I DO love having everything in pink… 😂
ME
@@Cami-cz7uf there is nothing wrong with being feminine tho
same fr like 90% of my belongings are pink
I have seen shirts for BABIES were they said. "Daddy isn't gonna let me date until I'm out of college" and the one for guys said "Dad is teaching me to hold a gun before I can walk"
“her chest honka hoonga-ing” has me on the floor rn 💀
7:37 i struggle with toxic masculnatiy and that is shocked because im gonna ask for little princess cookies at kroger and my grandma would go "you are a boy! no way" its literally cookies COOKIES
87% of my personality is saying "slay!" so i loved that segment at the beginning lolz
I CANT STOP SAYING IT!!!
"a fair maiden with a fully loaded gun" was a sentence I didn't know I needed in my life.
"If you as a man are eating strawberries, you deserve to be castrated." Jokes on you Im trans

currently waiting for transphobes and terfs to comment on this so i can attack them
me too omg lmao
Thank you, it made my day

Kind of thought that sentence would go somewhere else, seeing that you were looking at tissues..
I love how emily always takes her skits too far, it's just so funny
2:02…. that’s my name which makes that so much more awkward-
There's nothing that tickles my fancy more than a smooth sponsor transition.
I started using Old Spice antiperspirant because 1) the women's stuff weren't working for me and 2) I want to smell like pine trees and other nice things, not flowers (I can't even smell flowers so it just smells really sweet to me)
I had a terrible day and I had to leave school because of it. You made me smile for the first time today. Thank you
Seriously tho like with perfume it will be: cloud, sunset apple spice, pine tree paradise and Cologne is like: shark attack, wood chips, gun
This reminds me of the time when there was a female green power ranger in Dino fury and a lot of the fans were ticked off that she took the skirt. Lol as if there were no yellow rangers who didn't wear skirts.
Emily needs to win an award for best sponsorship transitions.
In early 2010s , there was a men's yogurt by Activia...
2:31 thats true lol
Bloody Mary would pretend like she was pregnant to get some guy to come to her land or whatever but then people saw that she still got her period (meaning she wasn't really pregnant)they nicknamed her Bloody Mary.
theres prolly a video on youtube if you want to know more abt it
i think its actually based on Mary I who was a queen of england that executed a buncha people
I imagine the 'manly' watch was written by a guy that spends their entire night watching alpha male tik toks on their ipad.

10:54 wow they are straight up SEASONING the men! this is a plot to create man soup. I hope they have a salt, cumin and garlic shower gel to go with it.
The “am I gay quiz” got me 🤣
It’s the opposite in my family, strangely enough. I’d my little brother played with a doll my mom would be upset. But as a kid when I played with traditionally masculine toys no one cared. And when my younger sister started an interest in makeup they were initially hesitant (I never wore any).
OK. This was GOLD Emily you're getting very good at this and I absolutely adore your humor and your jokes, please grace us with more videos
At the 2:10 part I swear I can imagine girly ghosts telling the little girls that their crush likes them back and that hes all delulu for them 💀
6:30 Ah, yes. I'm a cashier, but I do remember this from my training. It's pretty serious, sometimes we have to get the dogs involved.

Idk I think when done strategically it's funny, one of my sisters least favourite chocolate bars were yorkies but when ever she saw one she bought it, because and I quote "no one can tell me what I can or cannot eat" so I grew up liking yorkers not for the taste but the memory of my sister eating it and hating that she's eating it and complains about it just because "yorkies were for men"
I saw 4 toothbrushes that came in a “family” pack. It had the blue tall dad toothbrush that had thick bristles for their manly teeth. A slightly shorter purple toothbrush with significantly softer bristles (that’s probably on a normal toothbrush) to give the women that feminine look to their teeth. And two smaller toothbrushes (about the same size) one was light blue with tiny designs of Marvel superheroes and the other was light pink with tiny designs of Disney princess. How do I know what the bristles felt like? Because the package had a feel me opening on the part you literally have to put in your mouth.
ㅠㅠㅠ 😂😂😂
We stan Emily,always spitting facts
@what now I will miss it thank you very much
Totally 😍💅
Actually she didn’t spit.
13:26 i once had a teacher names Ms. Dad actually, waiting for mr mom now
I love the little sparkles all over your face when you move, beyond cute! I am like a magpie bird, I would like to know what specific product you used, if any? Maybe someone has some recommendations/glitter applying techniques as well?
I have The Body Shop sparkler but the glitter particles are too dense for similar effect. I know it's not video related, apologies, haha.
I think its just highlighter? Could be wrong but I love the ones from revolution
Go to any Bass Pro Shop. Trust that you will find an infinite amount of gendered products. One in particular was toy trucks. Their were “boy” toys and they had businesses and science pictures on the side. Then there were “girl” trucks that were pink and had “princess” written on the side. So infuriating..
As soon as she kept going abt privacy. I knew it was a VPN😂😂😂
I've been miserably sick for like a week and this video is the only thing that has brought me joy. I lost it at the ouija board being used as google
it's so disturbing how i literally left my homework and clicked on this omg ily
Girl this was my fist time watching you, and i never laughed so much at a video. You’re literally so freaking funny😭🤣🤣. And I loved the message in this video too, thx for speaking out about this issue😇
7:10 This would have been so much funnier if they had named those "Tough Cookie" and used a picture of Zico... and they could have named the "girl cookies" Red Velvet and sold millions instantly. I know I would have bought them regardless of what they tasted like. Do you think I need to cut down on k-pop?
I wish I found you sooner I have not laughed in over 8 months without it being fake you truly have made my evening thank you
her hair clips being blue and pink, iconic
Okay, but I had that exact ouiji board as a kid. (I have no clue how gifted it to me.) It didn't even say that it was meant to summon spirits. It was just supposed to be a mysterious source pointing you to the truth. It came with question cards like "Does my crush like me?"
Your ads are my favorite to watch. You always make it entertaining.
The feminine urge to summon dark girly spirits
Can't wait to see u in the short film u're making!
thank you!!! i can’t wait to show you guys :)

(I was gonna write this again but I realized this was here lol)
i hate that the "for men" stuff works better anyways
Not Kurtis even using the same titlecard
With all the men buying “man” products or using “man” services, how come not more men are having MANicures?
Honestly, as a man, I wouldn’t eat the creepy skulls. They’re too scary.
