Allstate Insurance decided to acknowledge the existence of gay parents in a recent ad, so of course the American Family Association completely lost it.
In case you aren’t aware of the AFA (and most people aren’t), they’re a radical right-wing group who have tried (and failed) to launch widespread boycotts against multiple major brands who showed any semblance of inclusivity when it comes to LGBT folks.
According to the AFA:
“The Allstate promotion does not share the reality that this child will grow up without the nurture that only a mother can provide. Nor does Allstate recognize the emotional trauma and questions this child will endure growing up in a home with two men.”
Here’s how this will all turn out:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Allstate will shrug, 99.9 percent of the population won’t care, and the idiots at AFA will continue to scour the internet and airwaves for any sign of the promotion of the “homosexual agenda” i.e. accepting the reality that LGBT people exist and some of us even have families.
We’ve seen this all before, but we admit that we did have a bit of a chuckle when they claimed that one of the dads had his arm “around his male ‘wife’.” That one takes ‘heteronormativity’ to another level.
Check out the “offensive” ad below and give Allstate a few more views just to make sure the AFA knows they’re on the wrong side of history…and sanity.

They need to focus on real problems
Philip Epstein
The nerve of these two men to love and give this girl a home .
Robert C Settle Jr
The boycott will not work! There are more gay people in this country then some realize. No poll will never capture that number of secret and closet gays.
Tony Chaplinski
a hate group for sure, and mothers to boot, wonder what they will do if one of their children is gay, probably throw them out of the house.
AJ Sarabia
If they are Antigay they are NOT a Family Group
Jack Gearing
Sad that the group is threatened by gay people?
Douglas Schlitz
Screw these bigots !
Larry Sidwell
Are they going to boycott every business? That ship has already sailed!
John Malin
American Family Asses should stop getting their balls in an uproar and their big fat tits in a twirl and grow up!
Kevin Brit
Sign the petition! I’m sure Jack Meoff, Ima Cunnt, and Ura Dipshiit are opposed to this and will be taken seriously by Allstate.
Loyd Hawkins
As if these pro-LGBT companies care what a small group of bigots thinks anyway.
Emery Biggar
Let’s start a new Association. The A-LGBT-FA. Nobody needs teh AFA anyway.

Screw the AFA! Their members and their children should be neutered and spayed immediately if not sooner! The Bible calls them rabble rousers!

Get over IT……it’s here.

AFA really stands for Abominable Fascist Aliens, an organization on the losing side of civilization.

i’d hope they’d be more concerned about things that really mattered. you’d think that adorable little girl isn’going to have loving female figures in her life. you can see it all around her in that commercial. get your nose back in joint and pull your heads out of your asses and mind your own business. slightly ironic you call yourselves pro-family but bash this loving example.

And the world collectively yawns.
Stephen Meeks
Fine, there are other insurance companies out there. Go for it haters.

Proud to have Allstate as my insurance!
RIGay
Well… I’ve had enough really bad customer support from Allstate and a run-in with an extreme douche bag adjuster for them that I dropped them for all forms of insurance. Fuck Allstate. Don’t really care.
Chuck
First, AllState you got it right. I would just like to say that the American Family ASSociation, your nothing more that a hate group. We don’t care what you think, or say.
AFA needs to change the name of the ASSociation. Hypocrites and Bigots ASSociation.
Jordan Walker
What !? People are different than the rest sometimes !? No !
Michael Estes
If I didn’t already have Allstate, I’d switch! 😀
Freddie Gary
If all state backs off I hope the loose billions.don’t let these bigots control what you do as a company
Jim
AFA, as useless and ineffective as the Million Moms (who are really only about 75,000 “moms”). I love when AFA tries to boycott anything, nobody cares except the assholes pumping out their propaganda drivel.
Patrick Laney
Will they boycott when the other person hits them and has Allstate? I. Think. Not. Clowns
Doughosier
Any group that has the word “FAMILY” in it’s title is evil it seems.
Kenneth L. Kish
Please get over yourself.
Rob Felber
Does anyone pay attention to this nonsense?
Tom Hilton
Boycott AFA. Totally ignore them. Remove all mention of them. It’s all they’re worth.
Mary C Scohera
I’ll be sure to support Allstate
Frank Bourgousie
Did the AFA give up on using the One Hundred Thousand Lunatic Moms brand name?

@paul dorian lord fredine:
” …ironic you call yourselves pro-family but bash this loving example. ”
Their ignorance won’t allow them to admit their cynicism is misguided.
