Dolce & Gabbana under fire for comments on family


Ash Wednesday

And it didn't occur to me to tie this in to the original post, but it makes sense that they would be pro-family. That's their business model, stated plainly in those ads, keep the bourgeois family intact, it's good for business.

​No, of course not, all advertising is bourgeois. But I find those particular ads more obscene than hardcore pornography, at least porn is refreshingly direct, they don't have to pretend to be respectable. Rowdy Roddy Piper agrees.

so ads for pornography would be bourgeois, but refreshingly direct?  fascinating....

and props for Rowdy Roddy Piper.

​No, not ads, the pornography itself. Ads for pornography are just called "advertising," I don't think you need another class lol.

"The family is not a fad."
 

That could pass for a great philosophy of branding. The family is not a fad, of course not, the family is stable, just like Dolce & Gabbana's brand. Don't question your family, don't question your brand, both are eternal and everlasting.

This is the stuff we're being fed.

Nihil Obstat

Your apostate nonsense is really starting to show its evil consequences. Hardcore pornography... God help us.

Forgive me for not properly respecting Dolce & Gabbana in the hierarchy of obscenities.

​In Era's defense, none of the D&G women are wearing pantaloons.

​True, but that has nothing to do with why I compared it with pornography. I'm more offended by the metrosexual father who in both ads is lost in a doting gaze on his infant, presumably like Narcissus looking at his own reflection of youth, which he hopes never to lose. The mother is just sexual background noise, a good breeder of children. It's the father who takes the real action in the ads, no doubt ready to perpetuate his line once again as soon as the cameras cut out.
