Quote# 87838

I read with astonishment that JC Penney is advertising Father’s Day with an ad featuring two real life homosexual males who are in a home with kids. The ad says that a father is ‘a swim coach, tent maker, best friend, bike fixer and hug giver—all rolled into one. Or two,’ but actually no, only one person is ever your dad, the other parent is your mom. We need to keep repeating this unchanging truth. The pro-family group OneMillionMoms has called for a boycott of JC Penney and I totally support their position. A few months ago OneMillionMoms brought attention to JC Penney because they chose homosexual celebrity Ellen DeGeneres as their spokesperson, DeGeneres is a talented entertainer, but not the right person for a department store to feature. Not, that is, if they want to keep a strong customer base among American families. This latest ad was featured in the company’s June catalogue. OneMillionMoms is suggesting families return their catalogues marked ‘refused, return to sender.’

JC Penney also featured a pair of lesbians for a Mother’s Day promotion. Someone at this company evidently has a big fixation on the homosexual agenda. And they are not the only retailer going foolishly into sexual deviance. The Gap has a billboard ad currently posted in Los Angeles with the theme, ‘Be One,’ the photo shows two homosexual males closely embracing as if they are one.



Friends, fathers and males in general are under attack in this culture. There is not a war on women as claimed, but there does seem to be a war on men. Traditional males and fatherhood are under assault everywhere they turn. As we get ready to celebrate Father’s Day, let’s be sure to give extra attention and show our appreciation to those men, our fathers, husbands and sons, who are still, in spite of heavy pressure to be otherwise, faithful, loving and strong examples of the way God designed men to begin with.

"—all rolled into one. Or two,’ but actually no, only one person is ever your dad, the other parent is your mom. We need to keep repeating this unchanging truth."

Er... two dads are two dads. Your truth has changed. Deal with it.

Hmm. AFewHunderedMoms protests JCPenney's use of Ellen, and JCP responds with the two dads ad.

Guess that shows how effective ACoupleOfMoms' protest was, huh?

Sure mark your catalogs "return to sender."I Mass mail like that doesn't actually go back to the sender. It gets recycled, save a few trees.

My grandma was/is my mother AND my father, since she raised me. You lose.

Why do I get the feeling this guy complained when they banned domestic abuse too?

Thanks for the reminder to pick up the shirts I need from JC Penneys this weekend.

"... We need to keep repeating this unchanging truth..."

Sorry. this is not a truth. There are many one-parent families.

"...One Million Moms..."

See! You even prove my point. why don't you just admit that you are a venemous bigot?

Under attack?! You righties love the war and violence analogies. Nobody is forcing two dads on anyone, nobody is preventing men and women from marrying.

Fuck off.

Does OneMillionMoms even have one million moms? Do they even realize that a million is less than one half of one percent of the US population?

only one person is ever your dad, the other parent is your mom. We need to keep repeating this unchanging truth.

Why don't you go repeat this assertion to every well-adjusted individual who was raised by two same-sex parents, like, I don't know, Zach Wahls? Biologically, we all have a mother and a father, but our real parents are the ones who raise us.

Someone at this company evidently has a big fixation on the homosexual agenda.

Look who's talking.

There you go again with your outdated ideals on gender roles. Have traditional gender roles gone out the window when we gave women the right to vote? Or when wives started working while husbands stayed at home with the kids? Take your overly-idealistic and restrictive notions on gender and stick them up your ass, you arrogant, loudmouthed wretch.

After seeing what happened to Disney, I'm sure Pennys is wetting their pants in fear.

I've never seen those ads, but I'm guessing that it has far more to do with attracting the business of gay people rather than pushing some sort of agenda. I really have to wonder how secure these people are in their sexuality anyway when they think that if men see this ad they're going to want to start having sex with other guys.

The thing that really irritates me is the idea that you can't portray anything but "traditional Christian values" or else it's an "attack" or "war" on Christianity. As if nothing else should ever be tolerated.

Oh, fuck this cunt.

It's not that bad compared to some here, but it's getting to me for some reason.

No, they don't have "a big fixation on the homosexual agenda", they have merely realized that about one tenth of all people are gay, and they want those people to be their customers too.

Fathers are under attack? But, the picture showed two fathers, no mothers, how is that an attack on fathers?

I know men who are feminists, who are also faithful, loving and strong. It's not either/or, stupid, you can be both empathic AND strong.

My parents divorced when I was young. Both sets of grandparents were divorced. I was raised by a single mother. So much for your "Sanctity of Marriage" and "Traditional Family Values." OneMillionObnoxiousWetHens is more like it.

As the adoptive father of one of my friends explained it to him, "Your father is your father, but I'm your Dad." Nurture, not nature, you thick-headed busybodies!

The fact that she called them 'real life homosexual males' alone is very telling of her hatred.

I notice she sounds like a robot too. Well, I guess that makes sense. Robots after all are 'cold-hearted'.

The pro-family group

I love how these "pro-family" groups try to destroy (gay) families. That doesn't sound very pro-family at all.

So, what I read into this is that if someone isn't your biological parent, then they aren't really your parent. Too bad for the adopted kids, eh Linda?

Companies are realizing that gay men and lesbians have cash and families too. Your side is losing. Deal with it.

"DeGeneres is a talented entertainer, but not the right person for a department store to feature. Not, that is, if they want to keep a strong customer base among American families right-wing bigots."

There. Fixed.

"DeGeneres is a talented entertainer, but not the right person for a department store to feature."

How is this for you to decide? What about the "free market" the right wingers are normally so eager to uphold? Does a company not have the right to choose whoever they want as a spokesperson?

I guess that only applies if they choose someone you like.

Everything this woman says effectively boils down to "damn those bastards for recognizing that people not exactly like me are human beings!"
