Time for the Queerty Week in Comments, with five of the most compelling, thought-provoking or just downright bitchy comments that came directly from you, the readers!
“It doesn’t bother me at all. I know many Christians and churches that are fully supportive AND inclusive of gays and lesbians. They support full equality and defend gay rights. Not all Christians are alike, just like not all gays are alike. Personally, I don’t want to slam anyone for their own beliefs, even if I disagree with them (or they disagree with me). I want equal rights and protections for all, regardless of their faith or sexual orientation. So, there’s nothing wrong with this advertisement. Free speech. If the kids grow up to be “haters” I obviously don’t desire that. But, I know many people who grew up in conservative homes and they turned out OK, went liberal or even are gay. I only fear that some in the religious community (even non-religious) create environments that lead to self-hatred amongst LGBT youth. That I don’t support. But, back to the topic… it’s a free country and if I want people to respect MY freedoms I’d better offer the same in return.”

I laughed outloud at that IHOP comment! So funny!
MikeE
the most epic comment on the IHOP waiter was “I would bang that like a screen door in a hurricane.”
I am SO adopting that expression.

@MikeE, I second that. Great comment!
