Yes, Happy Dad is a hard seltzer, and my read is that advertising tagline is a direct insinuation that other top selling hard seltzers (which generally come in taller skinnier cans) are for girls and not boys who watch football.

As for Meals on Wheels, I'm livid right there with you. I'm also really grateful for you sharing the human impact that the OMB order will have on Meals on Wheels. Right before responding to this comment, I just created something for Instagram essentially arguing for the impact of doing exactly this-- naming for one another the specific way that Trump's order has on projects and services that matter to us and our communities (both to focus our protest energy and so that we can arrange networks of care and support).

In college, a friend unilaterally declared a “Mike’s hard lemonade amnesty” on the grounds that it was a truth universally acknowledged that heterosexual young men didn’t drink sweetened alcoholic beverages but he liked mikes hard lemonade.

So I just want to applaud the expansive view of heterosexual masculinity that the Necks have embraced in shilling for a hard seltzer.

It's important, as men and the fathers of boys, to celebrate male feminist icons like the Necks.
