Can sexuality be changed?

[Gikoku Harakami]

Some are 'softer' in nature, but so are alot of straights...

Well of course, just like those women who are tomboys but aren't actually lesbians.

.. kinda funny how that works... stereotype gay men act like women, and stereotype gay women act like men... yet neither would have sex with the opposite gender.

Well they wouldn't be stereotypical gays if they did that, would they?

So I found this. For those of you who are too lazy to watch it, it's a Snickers commercial that aired in the UK for a brief period of time before the US got it banned because it was "against gays". I thought it was pretty goddamn funny, but I think they were stereotyping themselves on this one.

Haha, I forgot about that advert. Didn't realise it got banned like.

I don't see how that was "against gays". There wasn't even any confirmation the guy was gay. Besides, power walking does make you look ridiculous (regardless of gender).

Well, it was gay people who had a problem with it.

 

[gidget]

best-ever commercial! :yesnod:

 

[LevesqueIsKing]

I agree.

To be honest, I think the gay community was stereotyping themselves when they said they were insulted by the commercial.

LOL that commercial just made my day! One of the funniest I've seen in awhile!

A sad day for WiiChat not having the reputation point system.

I agree.

You are correct, there. Couldn't have said it better myself.

EDIT: On a final note, Speedwalking indeed sucks. Stop being a pansy and at least jog, dammit!

America ruins all our fun.

 

[Deanis]

LOL. It aired in Australia for a while, I think there was another one that went with it.

Then it got raped off air.

Our Prime Minister I think was offended, cos he was seen powerwalking all over the damn city.

It doesn't matter whether you're attracted to someone masculine or feminine, because guys do the same when it comes to women. Obviously it just matters that they're female. I'm sure there are plenty of feminine looking lesbians out there, actually, I think the majority of them are. You've been stuck to an old stereotype for a while.

best-ever commercial! :yesnod:

You've clearly not seen the Frosties advert.

THEY'RE GONNA TASTE GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that advert was stereotypical of gays, and that's why it was taken off the air. Well, that and the abundant death threats the actor (lol) was recieving.

One angry man wrote after watching it:

'He's a revolting, dispicable child, he deserves to die'.

Other people wrote:

The Frosties kid deserves the death penalty.

Death to the Frosties child.

That kid deserves to die.

The kid deserves to get bullied to death.

Those people must have forgotten that people get paid to do those sort of things. A lot of people would have done the same thing. It's like how people feel betrayed when your favorite football player jumps ship because of a better deal. Everyone would do it if they were in that position.

LAWL. Scariest ad ever.


Dude reminds me of a kid from school.
