This is something I find quite interesting. Interesting being the most politically correct and non offensive word I could think of seeing as this is potentially a contentious issue.
A bit of a kerfuffle has been kicked up re. Tui's newest billboard which says 'Dad's new husband seems nice'. Yet, no one really finds it that horribly offensive when Tui posts 'Let's take a moment this Christmas to think about Christ' and when Christians take offense at that, we just get told to calm the fuck down, it's only a joke.
Are the feelings of the gay community somehow more valued than Christians? By no means are either more important than the other. Sure, Tui's billboards are engineered to get some sort of a reaction, but where do we draw the line? I just find it interesting that society has chosen to draw the line here.
