It prompts my thinking on how emerging consumerist trends, such as this inverse labeling phenomenon you describe, reflect the values of efficiency - an ideology that is increasingly seeping into the public sector, including our health care system where dominant public critiques continue to focus on waiting times and expenditures instead of on equitable access to health services or cultural safety, for example. Consequently, I commend Old Spice for not giving into norms of efficiency. I would like to think that Old Spice is otherwise concerned with the equitable working conditions of Old Spice employees, the environmental impact related to manufacturing, and of course, the quality of the product. That being said, I also support a switch to Irish Spring because it smells way prettier. :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07892140340898704617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-23080294976478062902010-11-05T13:20:19.738-04:002010-11-05T13:20:19.738-04:00....I now don't know if I'm up or down...........I now don't know if I'm up or down....Hahaaaaa<br />Happy weekend SpiceMan!<br />hughugsDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00181520825012037531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-70692413029460914332010-11-05T11:27:49.757-04:002010-11-05T11:27:49.757-04:00But I really do like those sweet young things that...But I really do like those sweet young things that hang around the Spring.Anvilcloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07974744042579564912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-19875178353466895732010-11-05T11:22:40.808-04:002010-11-05T11:22:40.808-04:00A/C please, I say please again, don't loose yo...A/C please, I say please again, don't loose your 'Spice.'

That Old Spice bottle does look a bit precarious though the Irish Spring appears pretty solid. <br /><br />More than anything, I suspect that the Old Spice commercial with the really charismatic guy (ladies, look at your man, now look at me.. now back to your man... now back to me) did wonders for their sales.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.com
