I went to both the Out & Equal and Gaywork sites, and found nothing on either that meets the description in this post. The only reference to Proctor and Gamble on the Gaywork site was a company profile. I found nothing on the Out & Equal site.

We can't just accept the word of a website on these issues. There has to be something to back it up, and I could not find anything to back this post up.

Sorry, but there have been so many bogus stories out about this company that it's worth checking closely on stories like this one.

Until there's some evidence I can see, I don't trust this.

I thought P&G was into satanism. Sometimes I think these rumors are started by Colgate-Palmolive.

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

Did you visit the source site, click on the links therein? Did you check donor lists in Cincinnati and in Ohio both for the Ohio marriage protection act and the other causes mentioned?

Out & Equal and Gaywork would probably the very places this companies alleged activities would not be discussed. While I agree unbased rumors should not be spread, I'm at a loss to know where to go to find direct evidence of internal company polices and practices, homosexual makeup of its staff and other allegations.

In this case, what if it is true, and as subversive and destructive as the article says? Should we just brush the allegations off because there are no places on the web that present evidence, the nature of which being unlikely to be distributed?

The very fact that a company would be willing to alienate 90% of their market to capture 3% of its potential market, plus another possible 7% fellow travelers, would be absurd. But that commercial exists, and doubtless others like it.

Nor are they the only large company to have been increasingly advocating these personal and marketing practices.
