On Thursday, Mr Barilla issued a statement to apologise, explaining that he was trying to say "simply that the woman plays a central role in a family".

Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

I guess they don't want single men cooking their pasta.

Apparently only straight women in traditional family homemaker roles can stir Barilla's pasta. Men, regardless of preference or marital status, can not.

Yes, I saw that and had the second headdesk within two paragraphs. Not helping.

Wow. Congratulations on digging yourself in even deeper, Guido honey.

Way to fucking go!
