no gays kissing

the super bowl's almost here and i'm getting psyched for the commercials. i like to laugh. i like to get pissed off at the incredibly misogynistic messages that are put forth in the name of selling chips and beer. but, usually i have to wait until that sunday to experience all of it. not this year though.

i just saw a story on the evening news about an ad, sponsored by focus on the family, that will showcase tim tebow and his mother. in it they will talk about how he is alive because his mother chose not to have an abortion. that's fine. really, people can say whatever they want.

but then comes news that cbs is refusing to air an ad from a gay dating site - mancrunch.com. cbs said -

"After reviewing the ad - which is entirely commercial in nature - our Standards and Practices department decided not to accept this particular spot. As always, we are open to working with the client on alternative submissions."

watch for yourself -



okay, where to start? what's offensive about this; other than i have never seen two gay men who were so unkempt?
