No, it doesn't bother me but I can see why it would be tricky explaining to a kid, especially one who is not use to being around same sex couples. My coworker, who is in early 60s, just recently told me that she doesn't like it and feels weird seeing it, but considers it a generational thing.
Do you think its fine or should it be taken off the air. Honestly I could care less one way or another what people do behind closed doors. However, its a little awkward when my nephew or niece come for a visit and they see the commercials. Basically I have to make up story why they're kissing each other. 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.
I feel as if it's being forced upon us.
I fully support LGBT and their equal human rights but I don't want to have it shoved down my throat.
I wouldn't care if gay men/women were having sex in the same room as me much less kissing, but as someone that works in advertising, two men kissing makes no sense unless your selling something like Astroglide or promoting Grinder.
probably a third of people that buy or use most products don't want to see that ****. I'm not defending that, but it's reality, and throwing homosexuality in their faces isn't going to change that. It's just going to make them not buy whatever you're selling.

Seriously? A quick little kiss like the one in that commercial? That was possibly the most G-rated kiss in the history of ever.
I just now went back and looked at the original commercial, something I had not done before, and I was absolutely astounded that people have made such a fuss over it. It was just a quick kiss, obviously between partners, but not remotely erotic. I thought, given some people's reactions, that it would be the sort of kiss that is essentially foreplay, except for...hello...bank commercial? Probably not.
Yes, it makes sense, just like it makes sense to see portrayals of two women holding hands as they walk down the street, or an interracial couple getting their children ready for school in the morning, because all those scenarios are part of reality. It's not throwing anything in people's faces, it's just representing the world as it is. I can't imagine any reasonable person refusing to buy a product because of it.
FYI, to be brutally honest. After being in the retail business for so many years. I've learnt to hate people in general whether they be straight or gay!!!
If that is true, and not just being kind of snarky, I feel sad for you.
99.9% of all people without Dementia hate the erectile dysfunction ads. It is not a partisan data point.
The part that cracks me up is when that milf wife or girlfriend (there's one in every ad) raises her eyebrows and smiles.....it seems like a Saturday Night Live skit and not a TV commercial.
The thing I've never understood about those ads is why the guy needs an erection if he and his wife are going to be sitting in separate bathtubs.
Do you say the same thing when a commercial shows a man kissing a woman? If not, then you are a homophobe.
Or just someone that has some integrity of what's right and wrong that puts value on the family unit right reverend?
Some liberals won't be happy until it's acceptable to be having sex with animals in public places.
Time to bring it down again.
