For The First Time Ever, A Tiffany’s Ad Features A Gay Couple

By Peter Holley January 10

As far as Tiffany & Co. ads go, it’s standard fare: a chic, exceptionally attractive couple sharing a romantic moment that is captured in a beautiful black and white photograph.

This time around, the only difference is that said couple is composed of two men, making them the first gay couple ever featured in the luxury jeweler’s engagement campaign, according to Elle. The future husbands, who can be seen sharing a loving moment on the stoop of a brownstone, are not models, but a real-life New York couple, according to Elle.

“Will you promise to never stop completing my sentences or singing off-key, which I’m afraid you do often?” the accompanying text says. “And will you let today be the first sentence of one long story that never, ever ends?”

Next they will have a poster with a man creepily grasping the shoulder of a 5 year old with a deviant smile. Just sick.

Conservatives, by nature, hope that many destructive trends will blow over. And quite frequently, they do.

The gay rage, however, has managed to sink its claws into government.

It is also only God that is going to reverse the trend if it can be reversed.

Signs of our times when perversion becomes the new standard and greed supersedes decency.

Well, evil has become cool. I’ve long ago seen that. Regaining of stature in God is needed to fix it.

“The type of action required is what the gays, the left, the feminists, the islamists are so good at. They unapologetically get in the face of the people that offend them. They would go to the stores and raise hell, make the owners feel unsafe, smash windows, burn down the place, risk imprisonment and life. Even in the face of such atrocities and disrespect of the values that we hold dear, we conservatives aren’t sufficiently motivated and energized to take us out of our comfort zone and do something en mass that would stem the tide.
Perhaps someday we will - hopefully it won’t be too late.”

That’s why I always have a chuckle at the CW2 or Revolution 2 posts.
There’s not going to be anything like that. Even if there were I’d bet a solid majority of conservatives wouldn’t support it.
One thing about groups like Occupy Wall Street, they showed up and they kept showing up.
You’re correct that the left does do that and conservatives, in the main anyway, don’t.

God uses man as his instrument to do good. Just as the Crusaders did their part to fight this virus this baton has now been passed to our generation and we keeping dropping it.

Congratulations on spelling “supersedes” correctly!

I’ve been wondering who the other person (on earth) was who knew how to spell it.

And yet imperfectly. The Crusaders were interested in physically conquering lands a la Caesar. That abated the Islamic nuisance but didn’t really do much for the gospel.

Where the Black, Latino, Lesbian, Muslim, Fat people ads? Very offensive to just feature one group.

For those of you curious about the ad, here is the link:

The ad seems typical Madison Ave drivel. Not particularly offensive. At least the guys aren’t smooching like the guy with his boyfriend during the NFL draft. Eeyuh!!

But what’s with the pictures of the hot babe with the head of a pussycat around the margin?? Now that’s weird.

The reason that the left is able and willing to show up for all their “events” is that most of them are unemployed. Conservatives are always busy working to support all the leftists in their deadbeat lifestyles.

That nauseating ad just started running up here. No more P&G products for me, and I know of a few others who won’t be buying P&G.

I guess I’ll have to continue not buying their overpriced useless crap.

None of that matters.

I can make a personal choice to boycott any business...for whatever reason I choose.

If this - and other stores - want to pin themselves to this crowd, then their customer base will no include me.

Mostly, it’s just an attempt at “lawsuit insurance”, but in the long run which will be greater, lawsuits from the 2%, or loss of sales from the 97%?
