Well if you haven’t heard, Heinz have removed an ad which showed two men kissing (I say kissing it was a peck) on the basis that two or four hundred people complained about it. This is not only outrageous but pathetic and way over the top, another sign that it is social acceptable to be homophobic! The best way to protest is to hit them where it hurts. It’s a capitalist society and its time to move our custom else where until the advert is put back on air!!
Have been requested to post this! so Edson here it is, and thanx Andy.
The Heinz mayonnaise advertisement showing two men kissing has been taken off air. Heinz received more than 200 complaints from homophobic and ignorant consumers, and Heinz have succomb to this pressure from a minority of ignorant people. These only highlights that gay equality and rights are still being held back and subdued by this way of thinking. Complaints varied, from consumers not wishing to have conversations with their children explaining same sex relationships, to people simply finding it offensive. If parents did explain the diversity of the world we live in, then future generations would not be ignorant to the world they live in and the people around them. Why is two women kissing ok and two men is not. What if the diet coke break advert had been men ogling another man instead of women ogling a man. Why are children being sheltered from something that is supposedly 'accepted' (not that I like that term) and considered as valid a relationship as any other!
JOIN THIS GROUP AND SHOW THERE ARE MORE ENLIGHTENED PEOPLE OUT THERE THAN IGNORANT ONES.
BOYCOT HEINZ AND SHOW THEM OUR VOICES SHOULD BE HEARD AND ARE AS VALID AS 200 HOMOPHOBES!
LET'S GET THAT ADVERT BACK ON THE AIR
