We have come a long way towards acceptance in the past 10 years or so and that is a great thing. But let's not pretend to everyone two men kissing is the same as a man and a woman. Personally an ad like this would not bother me, in fact I love how it shows just how far we have come.. But I can certainly understand why others would not feel comfortable with these ads, especially if this feeling is driven by their faith

Why do you care? Kids are not asking why a same sex couple is kissing, they just aren't. At least be honest and say that it makes YOU uncomfortable.
FYI, Kids do ask!!! But to be honest with you. Two women kissing each other does not bother me. However two bearded men kissing each does...Does that answer your question.

Have you ever seen a couple just got married and are on their honey moon? We just got told by our friends and family to pretend like we're a couple of guy friends when we go on our honeymoon for our own safety.

Thank you OP for supporting homophobia and promoting the closet.

That may be sage advice. Are you going to the Middle East?

Congrats, by the way.

Of course, because you're a perv and feel threatened by men kissing. I kid, I kid sorta.

Kids do ask. Just tell them that some men love men and some women love women the same way a man and woman love one another.

It's not rocket science and they'll get it.

At least the OP admitted that it was him or her with the issue - not the children. It is adults that teach intolerance and hatred. Not saying the OP hates anyone but she seems to want to censor a simple kiss. It must be difficult to live in such a confining world.

Here's an example of how a kid deals:

It's because they haven't seen their relative in a long time. I just wish they would pull off those commercials from airing. Though I highly doubt it Boston area is very liberal.
What would you say if they saw a same sex couple holding hands, or kissing at the park?

Would you lie then too?
