a video is worth a thousand pictures


By now most people have seen the English commercial for Heinz Mayo with the gay male couple and family http://www.afa.net/Petitions/Issuedetail.asp?id=324 .

I personally don't find it smart, cute, or funny. I find it somewhat disgusting. The good thing is, quite a few other people found it disgusting too. Also, for the people who aren't in an area where they have exposure to gays and their lifestyle, as well as the family unit with gay parents, it might give these people a better idea of the gay lifestyle and actually alter what they felt before, either way.


Growing up in San Francisco I can remember once when my grandmother was in St. Joseph's hospital, which was at the very top of 14th st. my buddy and I went and played at Buena Vista Park directly across the street from the hospital. I was 11 and my buddy was 14. Being kids we decided to explore the park which is not a super big park like Golden Gate park which is a few blocks from it but it does have a lot of foliage and in general, places to hide. As we slid down a steep little incline into the thick brush my friend suddenly grabbed me to keep me from sliding any further. He made the be quiet sign by putting his index finger across his mouth. Then he pointed about 15 feet ahead of us and there were 3 White males there. One guy was being sodomized and one guy was watching and masturbating. Sick, disgusting, fucking perverts.

Fast forward to age 24. While walking down Albion st. right around the corner from my house I happen to notice a guy apparently pissing up against a basement apartment door. As I passed him I noticed he had a guy giving him a blow job. As I'm passing the guy standing (the other guy was on his knees) asked me "would you like to have your dick sucked?" Disgusted and feeling offended with the emotion of physically violent rage coming on, I continued on my walk away from these 2.

Both of those incidents were highly disgusting and personally a good excuse for an ass kicking. But seeing a guy take it up the ass or a guy swallowing another guy's dick are far LESS offensive than seeing 2 dudes kiss on the mouth.

Bravo for the Brits that found this Heinz commercial offensive and pressured the company into taking the commercial off the air. Please, keep that shit to yourselves.
