ollie89 02/18/18 10:37:33 AM #1:	piece. http://www.towleroad.com/2018/02/daily-mail-tom-daley/ A growing list of companies are pulling ads from Britains Daily Mail following a homophobic column by Richard Littlejohn blasting Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black for sharing an ultrasound photo of their baby on Valentines Day and having the gall to raise a child. Said Littlejohn in the article: I supported civil partnerships long before it was fashionable and Id rather children were fostered by loving gay couples than condemned to rot in state-run institutions, where they face a better-than-average chance of being abused.That said, and despite the fact that countless single parents do a fantastic job, I still cling to the belief that children benefit most from being brought up by a man and a woman. Please dont pretend two dads is the new normal He added: What I also find slightly disconcerting is that this story was reported virtually everywhere without so much as a raised eyebrow, as if it would be impolite even to ask any questions about the parentage. For instance, is Daley or his husband the father? Was it Bill, or was it Ben? Or neither of them? More pertinently, never mind Whos The Daddy? Whos The Mummy? Among the companies that have taken action after being called out for advertising with the Daily Mail on Twitter: Natwest, Centre Parcs, Southbank Centre, and EA (Electronic Arts). Jesus christ that man is ignorant. It's 2018 and you still have people like this who spout archaic garbage that is incongruous with not only the changing times, but the studies that show that kids raised by gay parents fare just fine. --- Woo! <cite>ollie89 posted [p:896307980] in Daily Mail...
