Is this shower gel aimed at men as well?

A little bored of my lynx shower gel and fancy something different!
Decided to go for a bit of Dove's products instead.

What difference will it make? It's only marketing and packaging that says one form of body cleanser is for men and another for women. They'll all do the same job on bodies of either gender! I think the packaging will tell you what sort of fragrance to expect (...if any, personally I'd prefer without). Just choose then one you like at the right price and don't be slave to the marketing dept!Just because somebody is certain doesn't mean they are right!0

Always read the labels, some shower gels are only suitable for women - if not sure just try a tiny bit first as a test and see if it's suitable. In Boots you can always ask at the counter, their staff are knowledgeable on the suitability of the products they sell.0

Be very wary. If you use one for women, you may start to feel the need to slip on a pair of high heels, if you don't already. You'll also start drinking diet coke, and not coke zero... fancy a man doing that!There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.0 -

I've never heard this before- why would it not be suitable for men?0 -
It's just added moisturiser, it'll be fine for you. It's a marketing ploy that people get sucked into, I know, I deal with marketing on a day to day basis.Married the lovely Mr P 28th April 2012. Little P born 29th Jan 20140

Lol at the replies, they were some good laughs!0 -
why dont they do a shampoo for Men.
something advertised along the lines of "gets oil and grease out of your hair", I'd buy that, its what i need, i dont care if it was brewed in a jungle clearing using ylang ylang and monkey farts. i just want to get oil and grease out of my hair, advertise to men, not metrosexuals.0
