What is up with the plethora of disturbing sexist advertising for men’s deodorant? Are they that scared of the simple joy of smelling nice?
Mitchum Man ads may just be your worst nightmare. And they’re everywhere – on trains, on bar coasters, bus stops.

“A Mitchum Man’s shirt is clean. His mind, not so much.”
“If G is your favorite kind of string, you’re a Mitchum Man”
“If your best man is holding onto your bachelor party pictures, you’re a Mitchum Man.”
