Over the last few weeks this ad has been causing a WHOLE load of controversy...
There seem to be two opinions on this:
- that it is promoting homosexuality and offensive to people. It means that parents may have to explain to their children why two men are kissing.
- that it is not offensive, that is just a bit of harmless fun and was only intended to be amusing. If it encourages people to talk to their children about adults' relationships then so much the better although seeing as it was specifically shown after the watershed, it is likely no kids would have seen it.
Anyway I find myself torn between the two. I may be a gay man but I feel that if parents want to teach their kids about being gay then that is great but it is their option, they shouldn't be forced. That said, the ad is hardly representing a gay relationship.
Ultimately, what I feel is, that both parties just need to chill the fuck out.
With this however I hold no sympathy. I feel they give gays a bad name.
Bad gays!!
