Could you please tag this video as FOR MEN ONLY? I'm currently unsure if I'm even supposed to be watching this potential chick vid.

King amongst boys

"as straight as your hog! which might have a slight curve and that's normal" is so fucking funny

fellas. is it gay to consume products in this highly capitalistic society?

“Rewrite this part” fucking ended me

That "how's that for toxic masculinity" guy COMPLETELY missed the point lmao

You have a very feminine beard.

"As long as no one's being harmed" that's the mentality we need with self-expression.

I was fully prepared to let you slide in a legit ad at the end. After 13 minutes of foreplay I wouldn't have been able to resist.

"too straight to experience joy?" really shou'ld be the tagline of all the narrow things that are "manly enough"

I’m a welder and I rolled my eyes so hard when I watched that guy in the duke cannon commercial cut that pipe and then immediately weld it back together. Great video as always!

I'm trans and I had just started transitioning when those annoying ads for men's soap were playing before every video (and also ones about sunglasses or something?) and they felt strangely validating, I probably watched the whole ad at least five times because I liked how that the dude kept calling me a man xD

In a way its cool that ”beauty producs” are being normalized for men but I kinda wish they would be unormalized for all genders. Can companies please stop inventing new insecurities for people in order to sell, thanks.

Lmao I let out the loudest laugh when you said "no I don't care for a child. These are for grenades!" 😂. Cause that's really seems like there what that product is going for

Lol my favorite is the ad that starts off with the titular phrase: "Do you want bigger balls?!" Hooked me right there, it did.

What I really think would kickass is if some of these recent "FOR MEN" brands featured trans men in their ads to really say "this is for men, all men"

When I was in high school in the early 2010s I was in band with a couple other openly queer girls. During one competition one of the underclassmen in my section had passed out on the bud ride there and a couple girls but makeup on him as a prank. He didn’t realize it until after our first practice run when all the macho dudes started making fun of him. He very confidently said “oh, that must be why I see better, it’s keeping the sun out of my eyes.” This not only kept the guys from making fun of him but made it become a popular practice for both the boys and girls to wear eye liner during marching season. The teacher initially tried to ban it but caved when so many people claimed it was helping their performance on a year when we were winning a lot of awards… and bc a bunch of the girls stuck up for him saying the boys should have just as much right to wear makeup and jewelry as the girls had. The original guy later confided in me and the other queer girls that he had originally just made something up to keep the guys from making fun of him but had never fessed up bc he decided he liked wearing makeup and this gave him a safe outlet, and a little bc it was funny to see all these super macho dudes wearing and defending wearing eye liner for “tactical reasons”. He was a straight cis guy, he said he just felt more comfortable confiding in us since we were the first people to stick up for him and bc we openly dressed unconventionally for our gender. It’s really nice to think you were an influence to kids learning to be better to each other.

glad your cousin got that easy bake oven! in my own experience as a bi cis woman, I remember during my childhood it was generally more acceptable for girl children to play with toys marketed to boys than it was for boy children to play with toys marketed for girls. definitely a double standard where boys got the short end of the stick though

The Trebilcock joke at 7:59 was too good to be ignored

You look like a mix between Timothy Olyphant and Chris Pratt all day.

All a man needs in their life is their 41 in 1 shampoo, body wash, and motor oil etc

Listen, if we can get anyone within the market demographic of "dude wipes" to increase their hygiene, that's a net win.

When you said the "snowflakes" are gonna get mad, I got real nervous. You really had me there.

I don't agree with the male-oriented branding, but I do appreciate that Dude Wipes is at least helping teach people the broader applications of wet wipes in general. Like I'd only ever heard of them being used for babies, but if you don't own a bidet, it's one of the the best ways to get as clean as possible down there in between showers. Might be TMI, but our weird hangups about discussing hygienic tips and tricks is why people go their lives not realizing they should wash their butts in the shower.

Perhaps an equally good term for toxic masculinity is fragile masculinity

No one gonna ask how Leo is filming from the Gulf of Mexico?

Real men comment on the video.

as a trans person we are always in such a weird spot with masculinity and femininity. as a trans girl if i'm "too masculine" i'm not even trying and if i'm "too feminine" i'm trying too hard. why can't i just be myself what the hell! i grew up watching soccer and for a while the masculine culture surrounding the sport actually convinced me that i had to stop liking it to be seen as a woman by other people. like that's actually batshit insane.

Some people are insanely entrenched in the gendered marketing system. My father in law literally refuses to shop Because that’s for women

Everyone's sleeping on "PC Gaming police". It's just *chef's kiss* perfection.

I sure hope this video is for men cuz I already started watching

As a transmasculine person I remember early into my transition I forced myself to be horridly masculine so I could fit in with the norm. Hell I'm still trying to unlearn some of these ideas.

Hells yeah, I just got done watching your Now You See Me video. For the 17th time.

Just gotta cement the fact that this is a masterpiece before you have 5 million subscribers

Hey, good on you for even addressing this topic. I laughed and wasn't uncomfortable! I was very scared clicking on the thumbnail... Love you, man!

“Rewrite this part” LMFAO I haven’t laughed this good in a while, ty

"Back In my day we Men got up at the crack of dawn to build railroads" Those were mostly built by underpaid Chinese immigrants in the 1860s...

I'm a girl, DON'T PUT MAKEUP TO COVER UP BREAKOUTS, it makes it worse and more long-term. Just take care of your skin, medicine, face mask, spot corrector, etc. Trust, you’ll be self conscious now but beautiful for life💅🏽

It is truly baffling to me that you're still such a small channel. The quality of your videos has been incredible since the first in this... Series? Whatever it is, it's good

"Too straight to experience joy" is an excellent phrase, and I'm using that one

I agree that male oriented branding is a bit wierd, but there is a large push, I see online, of shedding the old ways of masculinity. As a guy it kinda sucks because if I do something that makes me feel manly and/or more masculine cause I'm seen as pushing an archaic gendered society when all I want is too feel good about myself. The activities, like chopping firewood or shooting guns (or other make identified hobbies) themselves shouldn't be only for men since it can give everyone a sense of power and satisfaction with themselves, but pursuing a more masculine feeling with a product, like the bar of soap that smells of fire and whiskey, shouldn't be looked down upon as it gives everyone a chance to feel more masculine

I always knew Leo was a great comedian. Why did it take me so long to find and subscribe to his channel!?!?!

Dude it’s genuinely so nice to have someone combine being hilarious with general human decency. You literally disprove the idea in one video being touted that everything is too “PC” to be funny. You can be a decent person and respect other people and their identities while being funny.

This is such a good video holy shit. I’m so happy I found your channel dude

Imagine being so insecure with your sexuality you can't eat ice cream.

As a trans feminine person, this kind of marketing really is very harmful, it for a while had that lasting effect where it made me almost feel afraid to do anything feminine

This was great. KZfaq needs more informational content with a comedic edge.

Loved this. And even if it has nothing to do with gender, It's pretty much always more embarrassing to make fun of someone for liking/doing something than it is to actually like or do that thing

Don't you hate it when the PC Gaming Police comes after you?

Fantastic work as always. I'm fascinated by the intersection of masculinity and irony/irony poisoning, which has become such a weird tangle in the last decade or so. Also your TrebleCock joke deserves more attention.

May I suggest the Bloodshot Dam combat loop for the background music of the next video?

Toxic masculinity is a scam robbed me of my entire childhood and teen years. Even to this day, I struggle to show emotion to those closest to me because my dad made sure I grew up as a "real man".

Only time I've ever done this with a youtuber, but you rock so

Holy shit this video is a banger.

Doubt you'll ever see this, but just in case, I wanted to say thank you for making a point to bring up and validate trans and nonbinary identities. It feels like 99% of the time in this kind of discourse, people who aren't actually cisn't themselves just entirely forget that we exist unless we point it out to them, and even then they usually just sort of wave us away as some totally unimportant edge case and immediately forget about us again. It's always just so refreshing and reassuring to see other people, like, recognizing us and actually taking our experiences into account, even (*especially!*) if they can't fully relate to that experience themselves. Also your videos are funny as hell so thank you for that too :p

I got an EZ Bake oven when I was a kid and ate everything the same day. Also, I like this, and I like you.

"how's that for toxic masculinity?" textbook, you nailed it buddy thanks

I take very good care of my hygiene but I hate how men's grooming marketing is basically "IS YOUR DICK SMALL? BUY THIS!" like I get it, STOP REMINDING ME OF MY TINY DACK!

My friend got into a HUGE argument with his girlfriend because he wouldn't go out and buy her tampons when she was on her period dude no one thinks the tampons are for you

these types of channels are always impressive because you’re literally giving a speech and you’re funny as fuck good job

Spit out my beer when "MENSTRAIGHT" dropped.

I'm a bi/omni guy currently going through a mild gender identity crisis. Thank you for stepping up and saying something about the stupidity of gender norms. It really does help seeing others speak out

I have a Christmas photo of me at like 4 holding the football and the doll I asked my parents for. They're pretty great

You're delivery hits in just the right spot of funny that it leaves me wondering if hitting the like button too soon hurts your metrics.

I knew a guy that refused to eat hot dogs because he was worried about people thinking he was gay.

Bro-nut is such a funny example of an overly macho attitude backfiring.

Idk man, bronuts sound kinda counterintuitive, I mean who says "I want some bronuts in my mouth, I love the taste of bronuts."

this is definitely a video.

I like the choices you make for your video topics. Your comedy enriches my soul.

Richard Hammond saying he won't eat ice cream shouldn't be taken seriously, he's a comedian.

this was a great video throughout but that last bit killed me

thank you, I've been so sick of those "you're a stupid man who uses bad product, women will only want you if you use our product". Dr. Squatch and ManScaped both come to mind

100% here for the Blue Group!

KZfaq algorithm blessed me up with your Now You See Me 2 vid and now I'm on a deep dive. Bravo. Happy to be aboard.

I like bts and everytime I show my mom a video she's like "I don't like that they wear earrings". Mom. You wear earrings. What are you talking about lol

jesus christ, good thing i finished my coffee before hearing that "men straight" punchline, i would've spit it out onto my computer

this reminds me of the old crackle videos so much! sad they’re gone but i’m happy to find you to fill that crackle shaped hole in my heart

Im so glad the youtube recommendations put one of you videos in my feed. I have gone through your whole catalog in a week or two. Thanks for the good content and starting my year off great!

"Remember Timmy, being a man isn't about growing a beard, or just being a certain age. It's about working hard, helping others, and blindly following what our corporate overlords think being a man is" - Gandhi

I just wanna say, that over the past couple days you've become one of my fav youtubers. Your commentary style is on point. Keep up the good work!

The fact that the GAMER HOTEL labelled the men's bathroom with football represents a fundamental misunderstanding of your target audience.

Amped to see the streak of good work continue and continue to be appreciated. You’ve hit a real sweet spot with the gag to earnestness ratio in this one.

you're good at commentary comedy videos. i hope your channel keeps growing

I found your channel recently & I immediately subscribed after watching one video. Hearing you say gender is a spectrum & there are multiple ways to be masculine and feminine makes me so happy. Can’t wait to see your channel grow further!

you've got a real talent my friend. I have watched all the vids repeatedly and they still make me laugh out loud. So excited to watch your career unfold, regardless of where it take you

"the PC... Gaming police." Lmao loved that.

"blue man group? redundant!" man i love leo

As someone that still struggles with the effects from this, this video means a lot and i hope it helps people. That last punchline was amazing lol

man you are legit the only youtuber who makes me laugh out loud multiple times in one video (and not just air out of nostril “laughs”)

Why is your delivery and writing ALWAYS so fucking fresh?? Killing it Leo

"hows that for toxic masculinity" yeah i mean pretty good and very accurate. god the people who hear the problems with toxic masculinity and are too scared to actually take a step back and look at themselves to instead revel in said toxicity are so gross and vile. theyre such a massive issue in the world.

god, he's based as fuck

leo you're fucking hilarious I love watching these after long shifts. easy subscribe

This is now my fav video of yours. Super funny but still really informative and introspective. Thank you for making my day better.

The ice cream conversation is a joke by the way...

Speaking on guys using makeup to cover acne: I’m trans (born male) and I started transitioning in high school, so I can say from experience that if you dont wear lipstick, eyeshadow, or anything else super noticeable, then literally none of the boys will notice There is some truth to the fact that the average straight male does not look close enough to notice changes like that XD

“Rewrite this part” holy hell this is the only KZfaq channel I have to give myself pause time for laughing. I regularly wheeze during these videos 😂

“and you might think i’m being a little condescending too, huh? is that you?” was so good

Man. Idk if you’ve been told this before but your voice is so inviting/warm :-)

"men's ultimate multi tool" haha is this a box of q tips or a box of Wives? am I right fellow man's? Am I right? Please tell me I'm right
