Re: Heinz to withdraw 'Gay Kiss' advert!
Jambutty, why do you overreact and describe everything as "personal"? Logically, any reply specific to something you have posted has got to be personal but it does not imply an attack, merely a difference of opinion. I find the scenario of the advert amusing and I don't look for a hidden agenda. Being realistic if 200 people complained about this, out of the many tens of thousands who must have seen it, perhaps more saw it my way than yours.

Re: Heinz to withdraw 'Gay Kiss' advert!
Well it seems that this thread is getting way out of hand, in the world we live in it takes all sorts to make it go round, I have always been a bloke who has said live and let live. Homosexuality is not a disease, it is how some one is born, they don't have a choise as some people would have you think, they are what they are through a circumstance of birth, in actual fact the gay people I have know, both male and female are very genuine people, and are probably more sincere than a lot of thier hetrosexual counterarts

So questioning a person’s sense of humour is not getting personal? How people saw that ad is up to them. They are neither right nor wrong in forming an opinion about it. But then what is prevalent is that the minority opinion is wrong and those with that opinion get castigated. |

Don't find the ad offensive, or even funny; there again I think that ads serve only one good purpose: they give you time to grab a beer without missing the show. |
Re: Heinz to withdraw 'Gay Kiss' advert!
I just took another look at the ad. I can't see anything "gay" about it. It's as silly as the product is crappy .... but "gay"? If someone sees it as gay, or the men as gay lovers, I suspect that their perception is being distorted by their prejudice. Bottom line is: it's just another silly bloody ad.

Re: Heinz to withdraw 'Gay Kiss' advert!
Aaaaaargh! this thread is driving me potty.
The kids are not calling a man Mummy. They are calling their mother Mummy. SHE is a woman but in the ad is being portrayed as a NY deli counter server because that is how they are seeing/treating their mother - as little more than a sandwich producer. They could have portrayed her as a sandwich dispensing machine and the guy could have come back and kissed the machine goodbye. It's not about homosexuality. |
