Ford Promotes Gay Polygamy

It’s rather amazing to see. A company, who’s primary goal is to earn money for it’s shareholders, take such a radical tact. As you can see below, Ford chose to be a major advertiser in the homosexual publication called The Advocate. The June issue promotes polygamy.

Ford doing so despite receiving a large number of letters asking them not to promote the homosexual lifestyle and even being faced with a boycott from millions of Americans. Letters back from Ford touted their support of homosexual marriage as a “strong commitment we intend to carry forward with no exception.” Since the boycott began, Ford’s stock price is down 13% but they continue their marketing advances towards the gay community. (Obviously, there are far more factors than one at work on their stock price.)

I would never buy a Ford because I believe them to be inferior machines. This kind of PR certainly doesn’t warm up the average American family to Ford’s products. I wonder how low the stock price would need to fall before Ford would back-off this strategy?

Interesting related note: If Ford truly believes in homosexual marriage, isn’t gay polygamy counter-productive?

  • why do you care what they do ?
    what is your position ? mandatory marriage ?

  • Personally, I think society as a whole will be better served if children are raised with both a mother and a father. That’s just my opinion, but the large majority of our country believes this as well.
