Saw this just now...

Attended an all-boys Catholic school in HS, with about 25% joks, and so IMO, I'm tolerant about this ***ual orientation.

Had a mini-reunion a few days ago with my HS batchmates, with a third attending - joks. No qualms.
(Our joke is,- check your friends. If two are straight,- then you're 'it'...... )

Billboard is a promotion.

Hold that thought for a while....


Now, would you ???

Magagalit ang mga closeted gays sa CBCP, just like when they pilloried My Husband's Lover

[chua_riwap]

Nope.
Mas masagwa pa yung nagkalat na billboard dati ni vicky belo na laging nakanganga......

personally, i still feel uncomfortable seeing pictures like these displayed at a public place...

[badkuk]

i'm not at all comfortable with the over-representation of LGBTs in the media...but i don't find the poster offensive at all -- one of the tamer ads i've seen actually.

Don't really care... What do you expect? bench owner is jokla.

What I don't get is why does jokla feels the need to ram it down to everyone's throat about their ***uality

Exactly bro!

I remember,- our family was having dinner in a restaurant,- and there were these 2 gentlemen in the opposite table,- holding hands, looking intently at each other and sharing food and occasionally wiping each other's lips.... Everyone in the restaurant was visibly uncomfortably hush hush on them,- and yet, they were unmindful of their surroundings.....

Hey,- i am tolerant,- yes,- but there should be a place for such intimate actions.... It's like kissing in public for whatever ***ual orientation you are,- it is not proper.

You're jokla,- yes I can accept that,- but do not broadcast or advertise it like it is the best thing in the world for us to see!

Two gentlemen,- HHWW.... oh man!

On the billboard: Its not too offensive. It depends on the perception of the person looking at it.

Compared to tv shows specifically highlighting gays and lesbian as primary actors, this billboard is tame.

Heck, I'd rather have MTRCB censor goin' bulilit for their segment "sinetch itey" featuring male kids as gay reporters. It gives me goose bumps to see that. It used to be a funny show, now we don't let our kids watch it anymore.

Tama yan! I will post this again I respect their ***uality but they should also respect me if I'm uncomfortable around them and it shouldn't be taken against me.

[niky]

So... guess what? Turns out it was Bench that got cold feet and censored the ad before they sent it to the Ad Council.

I mean... seriously... you're taking a picture of a gay couple for your billboard. Have the guts to follow through!

Personally... holding hands is about 20 levels removed from any "get a room" type discomfort.

Kids hold hands with each other.

Parents and kids hold hands with each other.

Girl "besties" sometimes hold hands while walking. (and yes, Lesbians, too... but I've found that straight girls do it, too)

Boy "besties" used to do it (the younger ones), but the stigma of being "gay" means that they don't do it, anymore. But bros... we totally hold hands after a fist bump... just to see who'll break down in tears first as we squeeze.

IMHO, the billboard isn't propaganda. It's just showing the truth. That sometimes best buds can hold hands.

Accept them for what they are, but do not tolerate what they do...

Best gentlemen buds in a firm handshake bro,- (as you said after a fist bump).....

But while walking in public?.... Come on!...

Get real!

Bro/[Sis(?)]- You should have tried,- holding their hands and squeezing them....

Then, (deep in your heart), - you'll know... :hysterical:
