You're right, I don't know you, that is why I'm asking.

I AM sticking to the topic at hand.

The AFA's boycott has to do with target advertising in magazines that gays tend to read. Period.

Ford would advertise Lincoln Towncars in "Seniors Today"

It would advertise Mustangs and trucks in "Maxim"

It would advertise Miatas and Fusions in "Cosmopolitan"

If marketing studies showed that the gay demographic are drawn to Range Rovers, Jags, what have you, and advertised in a gay magazine, what is the difference? They are advertising to SELL CARS.

Instead you post:

Quote:"If that's true... it's yet another reason to get a Subaru next time around. "

Quote:"I simply refuse to support a business that actively promotes a lifestyle that differs from my own."

So PLEASE tell me what you mean by this, because it sounds conflicted. Unless you're just blowing off on Ford (again), you would only post these statements if you support the boycott. And to support the boycott.....well...I guess that goes without saying.

Or what am I missing?
