That's So Gay

Words are powerful - and often people do not realise that what they are saying upsets other people or denigrates a minority.  Not deliberately meaning to give offence is no longer an excuse. 

These two excellent American TV commercials make the point perfectly.  As the slogan says "It's Not OK to say You're So Gay - Knock It Off!".

It is part of GLSEN and Ad Council's new ad campaign from thinkb4youspeak.com. The first features Wanda Sykes in a pizza parlor telling a group of teenage boys to Knock It Off!



The second features Hollywood star Hillary Swank and she gets the point home too!
