The only reason this picture was rejected is that it shows women together in this embrace.  If it were men and women, Facebook wouldn't have rejected it.  Facebook has many, many gay and lesbian users and this discrimination is going to cause them to lose the support of thousands.  I hope they will re-consider their decision.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[author30]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 1:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh really?  Are you sure about that?  You got the corporate memo from Facebook?  <br><br>Facebook does have homosexual ads.  They just didn't approve this one.  So what?

AOL at least once a week has to pick on facebook.  Look within yourself AOL. I'm sure a lot of people could make comments about the substandard product you deliver like 1/2 the articles that are on this site that make it to headlines, not to mention some of the writters.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nimue]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 6:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[If you don't like it, make your own website.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DJT2005]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 7:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[If YOU don't like it, get a new on-line!

There are people who like the same sex.  Get over it.  So what?  Popeye, no one is forcing anything on you.  It is what it is.  You don't have to look.  I am  hetero but I could care less who someone else wants to be with.  I have better things to worry about.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ruttroh24]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 7:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[I see kids on that sight and I don't think it;s apprpriate for children.  I personally don't think face book is for kids under 17, but thats just me.  My Nine year old wants an account because some of her friends have one but I won't back down. If any parents are using this don't let your kids be on those type of websites.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Audrey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 8:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree with you- gays and gay marriage should be a really SMALL blip on the radar  compared to things like health insurance, unemployment, the homeless, etc.   People let's solve everyone's basic needs before we start getting our panties in a wad over things like two people of the same sex being together.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[freediverdude]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 10:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree with most of the comments here.

The Levi commerical with two teens and racing to take thier jeans off and see eachother.  What about every single time you walk into a mall and Abercrombie & Fitch has very revealing advertisment (actually, I just looked at the website and the current full page photo is a guy with his hands down his jean front).  So for those that find the 3 women offensive.. its for purely sexual reasons.  I find it ironic since so many men seem to have the 3some fantasy... perhaps they are just upset they got blocked by another woman?  Point it.. its advertising, it makes people look and remember the movie etc.  I find little purple stuffed animals annoying.. but its advertising.  Im straight and it doesnt phase me a bit.. other than to be happy that America is finally going to become more and more non-judgemental and less bias towards what SOME think is proper.  To each thier own, love and live and do so however you want.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dutchessagain]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 8:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[So in other words, if everyone is doing it, its ok?  right?  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[horiz2win]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 12:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[didn't your mother ever teach you that just because others are doing it, doesn't make it right?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 27th 2009 6:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[Facebook is a little scary, imo. First the announcement that Facebook would "own" everything that gets posted to use as it wishes (it later backed down, but it still retains content indefinately), and now this. I don't care about the ad one way or another, but the article makes a good point. Clearly a double standard. If Facebook is afraid a thought of three clothed women is offensive, it obviously doesn't look at most of it's current content. <br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lildoxielvr1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 8:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow such Homo-Phobic Ignorant People we have in our Country, No wonder we're trying to kill each other with Hate, Weapons, and Fear.<br><br>The "NEW" American Way?

The rest of the world is more tolerant and civil then the USA. Wow. That's the most ignorant thing I've read in a very long time. People are murdered and thrown in mass graves all over this world because of their beliefs or non-beliefs by tyrannical rulers. We have the ability to sit at keyboards and discuss a rainbow of topics without fear of being hunted down. And you have the audacity to say we don't deserve your faith. Billy, go find somewhere else to live, and do it quickly please.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Baldcougar23]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 11:19AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't think they should use sex period to sell anything.  It's getting a little out of hand when I am watching T.v. ans am imbarressed by a comercial because my six year old son is right there.  Thats why are kids are starting to have sex at 12 because they see sex all around them and we think it's ok.  I am not prude I watch porn with my hubby but we keep it away from our children. We need to stand up and fight for our kids.  They do not need to see sex in every commercial.  Do you really need to use sex to sell rice?  Come on.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Audrey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 9:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[Something smells fishy !!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[philbabso]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 9:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/04/27/facebook-rejects-lesbian-film-ad/</guid><description><![CDATA[I do not feel the ad is appropriate.  Personally, I do not want to see this type of ad with heterosexual or homosexual content.  Facebook is a networking opportunity to connect with friends and family.  I do not mind advertisements now and then....however, i see no reason why they have to be sexual in nature.  This forces people to see images that may be offensive to them.  It should be about respect of ALL people.  Why even cross sexual boundaries?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Christy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 9:11AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
