Heinz pulls ad showing men kissing

...right. Because here in the UK we like the USA so much we want to become it. I forgot for a moment there.

I saw the ad on TV the other day, actually, and though the ad overall gets a pretty big *shrug* I thought it was sort of neat that the implication of homosexuality was acceptable here on daytime

In a horrible way, this backs up my sister's 'argument' which is that if you expose young kids to gay people on television, they think they should test out being gay and therefore you shouldn't.

:(

When, when are people going to realise that the more you hide things, the more you draw focus onto them? If people were more, 'some men love men, some women love women, it's all good', kids could just accept it. Making out that it's a big, inappropriate Thing hurts them more than it helps them!

Also, if anybody's interested, you can write to Heinz here. I just e-mailed them. ♥

D: That is incredibly disappointing, not just that it drew complaints, but that Heinz gave into them.

And of course, it's always about the children. Even when they aren't involved.

That's so not even gay. It's just a joke. Woooow.
