Okay, two blogs in one day, but I find this too important to not speak about. Everyone has seen that a major pasta company has come out stating that they will never have a gay family represent them in advertising. Personally, I don't buy my products based on who is in the advertisement, but I do have a problem with what was said about LGBT families and adoption by the Chairman of Barilla, Guido Barilla, "I have no respect for adoption by gay families because this concerns a person who is not able to choose".
Do children adopted by heterosexual couples get to choose their parents?
In his "Clarification" remarks he stated the following:
"I respect gay marriages"
followed by,
"In its advertising Barilla represents the family, because it is what welcomes everyone."
Obviously NOT everyone.
