I just sent in my resume' and told them I listened to Ricky Martin and watched Bravo religiously.

I bet I'll get an interview now.

Homosexual Agenda Ping - Gotta get this one out right now - The American Family Association sends me alerts, anyone who doesn't get them ought to think about about signing up with them. They're good.

And anyone who thinks Proctor & Gamble is not actively pro-homosexual should carefully read this article and a couple of others about them.

If we buy their products, we're helping support the "gay" agenda.

Let me and Scripter know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

"This may well be another bogus story. I hope we can find out and, if it is bogus, stop spreading rumors."

You are talking like Kerry: "And if it is true ..." that the white house made a secret deal with the Saudis....

This article is posted FYI. I did not write it.

If you are concerned that it is incorrect, then research it and post what you find. I have found the AFA to be very reliable and accurate, even if I do not agree with every single position they take.

AFA is a sizable operation. If they were spreading false information, I am certain P&G would be filing lawsuits already. Maybe they will anyway.

The supporting details are available at www.afa.net .

There you go again, muddying other peoples' breathless crusades with facts.

I'll see if I can find anything to back up this article;

here's a link to the "GayWork" site:

http://www.gaywork.com/page.cfm?sectionid=1&typeofsite=directory-detail&id=343

and a quote from P&G:

"Diversity
Procter & Gamble is deeply committed to diversity in all aspects of recruiting, development, and promotion."

[GOP_1900AD]

P&G as well as most other Fortune 500s are a cross section of society - and as such, they are dominated by liberal, burned out hippie, Baby Boomers with LSD remnents and Political Correctness induced damage affecting their brains. From the mailroom to the boardroom, the diseased are in force (e.g. liberalism is a mental illness).

"Ya got a link for this story? No? Then how can you expect FReepers to have any confidence in it? NEED A LINK!"

Sorry. I thought I mentioned AFA's website, but I did not. Here it is:

Well I sure as heck dont drive a Ford! Or rent one either!

[GOP_1900AD]

To be fair to both sides in this debate, you have a point, however, if P & G are like most Fortune 500s, then long ago, high status, well educated gays got into upper management and the board room, and have subtly steered things in their direction. You need to prove to yourself, and to those who started this thread, that P & G are any *different* from most other Fortune 500s. If they are no different, then they are probably doing more than any true Conservative would be comfortable with, in terms of kowtowing to those who are in opposition to traditional values.

"and a quote from P&G:

There is nothing in their company profile on that site that even mentions homosexuality or even sexual orientation in their diversity statement.

Certainly nothing like the post said.

P&G ACTIVELY RECRUITS THOSE WHO PRACTICE HOMOSEXUAL BEHAVIOR TO BECOME EMPLOYEES

Old News...P&G has long since promoted perversion. Too bad they manufacture half the products we need to exist without burden. Clearly they hold the hand of the dark side.

[MineralMan]

"We need to verify that the website actually contains this info.
"

I went to both websites mentioned in the post. Neither had anything resembling these accusations. The only mention of Proctor and Gamble on the GAYWORK site is a company profile, where the company makes a generic diversity statement, never mentioning sexual orientation or homosexuals.

I couldn't find anything on the other site at all about P&G.

This post reflects, I believe, false information about this company. While P&G, no doubt, hires homosexuals, that puts it on a par with virtually every other corporation in America.

I smell a hoax, and it appears that the AFA has been taken in by false information. Sad.

[little jeremiah]

Here is a list of P&G homo-support activities from the AFA:

(Is this enough, O Modernman and Mineralman - btw, are you really two different people?)

A Short Track Record On P&G's Promotion of Homosexuality
Procter & Gamble created and ran an ad that showed two men (in fuzzy focus at top center of the ad) in bed after an apparent sexual encounter. The ad leaves the impression that homosexual sex is normal, thrilling and exciting, and was run in a homosexual publication called Xtra. See the ad at http://www.pgboycott.com/pgcommercialcloset.pdf


P&G recently wrote to their Cincinnati employees urging them to support the repeal of a city law that forbids giving special rights to homosexuals. In 1993, the citizens in Cincinnati adopted the law by a vote of 62% to 38%. P&G is now working to get that law repealed and has given $10,000 toward that goal.

P&G regularly supports pro-homosexual media with advertising. According to the pro-homosexual Internet news site 365Gay.com, "Procter & Gamble has been a long time supporter of the gay community. It has one of the strongest workplace equality policies among American companies and is a frequent advertiser in the LGBT media, including 365Gay.com"


At the request of homosexual activist groups, P&G dropped advertising support for television talk show host, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, because of her politically incorrect view that homosexuality is wrong. http://davidsisler.com/06-10-2000.htm


Procter & Gamble is a major corporate sponsor of the annual Cincinnati Pride (homosexual) event celebrating homosexuality. http://www.cincypride.com


P&G has given $10,000 to Citizens to Restore Fairness, a political homosexual activist group. The co-leader of the campaign is a P&G corporate executive. http://www.pgboycott.com/PGContributions.pdf


P&G supports an employee network group called GABLE (Gay and Bi-Sexual, Lesbian Employees of Procter & Gamble).


P&G's benefits program includes domestic partnership benefits for same-sex partners. Andrea Adkins of Dayton, a P&G employee for over 20 years, said that the company’s decision to offer domestic partner benefits will be a "very influential for other large typically conservative companies. People do look to Procter & Gamble as an example," Adkins said. http://www.pg.com/canada/diversit.htm


P&G sponsors the annual “Out & Equal Workplace Advocates” workplace summits. Out and Equal is a homosexual advocacy organization promoting homosexuality in major companies. http://www.outandequal.org/pdf/2003-06.pdf


P&G was named by PlanetOut as a top 20 company to work for based on their pro-homosexual support and benefits. http://www.planetout.com/pno/money/article.html?sernum=308
WARNING: This site contains photos that depict homosexual physical contact.


In 2004, the Human Rights Campaign gave P&G a score of 86 percent in a Corporate Equality Index (CEI). The CEI rates large American businesses on how they are treating gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender employees, consumers and investors. Click Here

The suit was against Amway and some particular distributors. Interestingly, Quixtar (what they're calling Amway now) recently saw fit to send around an email to their distributors cautioning them not to spread this rumor. From comments I've seen, most were not even aware of the rumor until they saw the email. Hmm. Why am I reminded of Dan Aykroyd in 1941 explaining step by step how not to fire the 40mm gun?

"This article is posted FYI. I did not write it.

I have already done that. As I said earlier, I could find nothing on either of the sites that bore any resemblance to the information in the post. This smells of hoax to me. The AFA may well be a fine organization, but I do believe they have erred in this story.

You can go to the sites, yourself. You'll find what I found: nothing resembling the accusations in this post.

[unlearner]

"P&G has a very good record of community involvement and family values. I can with confidence submit that this is a false accusation to slander P&G."

The United States has a very good record of community involvement and family values. I can say with confidence that anyone who claims the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that sodomy is a protected behavior under the constitution is guilty of slander. </sarcasm>

By your own admission ("I am not connected with the P&G company") you cannot be certain these claims are untrue.

Of course your comment on stopping Kerry-Edwards gives your post some redeeming value. That is top priority right now.

[Aquinasfan]

Gay people don't have children who need healthcare, and people with AIDS don't live long enough to draw a pension. It's a win win.

I was thinking the same thing. But my guess is that it's mainly ideological.

[libs_kma]

Your link is proof of nothing the ad stated is an for a P&G product (a CLOTHES DE-WRINKLING product) that is ADVERTISED from a some kind of gay consumer site. It is a HUGE stretch for the point you are trying to make. Believe me, I don't like gay marriage or anything like that anymore than you do, but this is a smear against P&G and its not true!

What are your motives for this? Another poster truthfully said that this a great stock to own. I also own P&G stock and the company is a very well run company that doesn't teach this kind of filth and seek out people who like this kind of filth. The site and ad you refer to offer absolutely NO proof that what you say is true. What you are doing is slander and I think you should be careful wiith the accusations you make that cannot be proven. You sir, are very much mistaken and I think you are doing a strong disservice to this forum.

[scripter]

We stopped purchasing P&Gs Tide and Crest products, and will keep looking for additional products to boycott.

[Aquinasfan]

There is nothing in their company profile on that site that even mentions homosexuality or even sexual orientation in their diversity statement.

"Sensitivity training" goes on all the time in big companies. It's a brainwashing technique.
