You will not believe this ad by Johnson & Johnson

Johnson & Johnson has placed an ad for its Tylenol PM product in the July 19 issue of The Advocate, the nation's leading homosexual magazine.

The ad shows two shirtless men in bed side by side. The text over one reads: "His backache is keeping him up." Over the other: "His boyfriend's backache is keeping him up."

Click here to see a copy of the ad. (Be warned, it is offensive)

You probably aren't aware that Johnson & Johnson is also a charter advertiser on the homosexual network LOGO. Thanks to Johnson & Johnson's committment to financially support homosexuality, it is only a short time before this premiere homosexual-based network will become a part of your local cable package (if it isn't already). While Johnson & Johnson voluntarily helps get the network off the ground, you will be forced to pay for it as part of your regular cable bill.

Johnson & Johnson says they will ignore emails from OneMillionDads.com, so your personal involvement is needed today!

Please take time to call Johnson & Johnson. Their toll-free number is 1-800-962-5357, option 5 (you may be on hold for a minute or two). Their corporate phone number is 732-524-0400 with little or not waiting time.

Tell them to stop their financial support of homosexual networks and magazines. Please be kind, but firm, when you call.

Tylenol PM is sold under Johnson & Johnson's subsidiary, McNeil Consumer & Specialty Pharmaceuticals.

Please take action now, then forward this critical issue message to your friends and family.

P.S. Please forward this to your family and friends!

So what was Donald E. Wildmon doing reading a homersexual mag?

[Little Pig]

Looking for things to get outraged about, no doubt.

[JustAnotherOkie]

One has a back ache and the other has a sore shoulder and tennis elbow from the reach around.

[sharktrager]

Gays get headaches too!

Not for the timid

[BurbankKarl]

I couldnt find the article.

But then again, makes sense for "Johnson and Johnson"

[sheik yerbouty]

Maybe one of them said "I have a headache."

[tfecw]

"So what was Donald E. Wildmon doing reading a homersexual mag?"

bingo

[Gopher Broke]

[Shery]

Donald Wildman keeps pro-family groups and parents aware of offensive materials by rating shows, movies, ads, etc for the public to know what they are supporting. I feel it is a family service as I don't particularly care to support companies that throw garbage to the public for consumption.

[mnehring]

I believe gay people get headaches too.

[gogogodzilla]

Well, this IS 'Johnson and Johnson'.

Whaddya expect?

[highball]

No doubt.

Hey, everybody wins here. The gays get advertising for their network, Johnson &Johnson get more advertisements out there, and Wildmon can use this to pump for more donations. Win/win/win.

[softwarecreator]

Maybe one of them said "I have a headache."

I think for gays the ache would be a little further south.

[eastsider]

His backache is keeping him up.

Just how far down his back is the ache?

[avg_freeper]

""His boyfriend's backache is keeping him up."

uuuhhhh huh huh huh

he said "up"

[Chris_Shugart]

I agree with P.J. O'Rourke when he says that Americans should mind their own business--unless there's a buck in it.

[Gopher Broke]

Thanks, Flashbunny. I like AFA and Wildmon, too as do most of the heterosexual conservatives on this board.

I boycott companies like J & J that support trash and the homosexual agenda.

[Red Badger]

But then again, makes sense for "Johnson and Johnson"

LOL!!!..........

[mel]

It kind of like a bad cartoon

[Red Badger]

I believe gay people get headaches too.

Yeah, but big or little?......

[dfwgator]

Speaking of up, looks like one of the guys in the ad is starting to "pitch a tent."

[Modernman]

Who cares? Johnson & Johnson is trying to sell pain medication. This is just targeted marketing.

[Corin Stormhands]

This is about Johnson and Johnson making a profit.

Most of the non-gay community wouldn't even know about this if it wasn't for Wildmon promoting it.

J&J will make more money promoting this ad than they will lose by AFA boycotting them.

Heck, even the Southern Baptists say it's okay to go back to Disneyland...

[sofaman]

I's a homosexual magazine...if that's offensive to people, I have a suggestion....don't buy it. Good Lord above, the things that get people all exorcised! It's bewildering.

[Modernman]

I feel it is a family service as I don't particularly care to support companies that throw garbage to the public for consumption.

This is an ad in The Advocate, whose readership is probably 99% homosexual. It's not like this ad is in Reader's Digest, or whatever.

[BurbankKarl]

Its a suppository for the gay communiti.

Blue Butt

[Tall_Texan]

"Too much Viagra is keeping him up at night..."

[dfwgator]

And let's face it. Gays are a marketer's dream. Lots of disposable income, since they don't have to spend it on kids, they tend to be more impulsive in their buying habits.

[tophat9000]

Well, this IS 'Johnson and Johnson'.

LOL...Outstanding!

[ElkGroveDan]

Not tonight dear, I have a headache.

[conserv13]

I boycott companies like J & J that support trash and the homosexual agenda.

Do you live in a cave? Gay people buy their groceries at the same store you do.

[Modernman]

And let's face it. Gays are a marketer's dream. Lots of disposable income, since they don't have to spend it on kids, they tend to be more impulsive in their buying habits.

Sure. I imagine J&J does a lot of targetted advertising. The version of this ad for Ebony probably involves a (straight) black couple, for example.

Nothing wrong with that, IMO. J&J is selling pain pills- a gay dollar is the same as a straight dollar.

[highball]

Looks pretty tame to me....

[Theo]

I've never looked at a homosexual magazine, but I'm (now) aware of this ad. Being aware of something doesn't mean that you've immersed yourself in the environment in which it's found.

What is your point, anyway? Are you trying to belittle "the messenger"?

[ElCapusto]

Thanks. As J&J stockholders as well as users of their products, I have written the company, for whatever good it will do. I've informed them that we'll dump their stock as well as never purchasing their products and encouraging as many as possible to follow suit.

[cyborg]

This is a captalist society. Hence, the more people you market to, the more money you will make.

[WideGlide]

You will not believe this ad by Johnson & Johnson.

I believe it. Will you believe this ad that ran in Buttlove (or was it Butthead?) Monthly?

"I am the Great Cornholio. I need some Tylenol for my bunghole.

[squirt-gun]

Why must normal people be continuously subjected to the sodomy and disease spreading sub-human behavior that is applauded by all sectors of the media?

Can't civility be returned to our society?

[Kenton]

I suppose I'd be more offended if this ad appeared on TV, or in my local paper. Or the "Weekly Reader".

Considering that it appeared in a magazine that is directed to homosexuals, I'd never have seen it. And the guys who DID see it probably wouldn't be offended.

Yeah, I know, Sodom and Gomorrah and all that.

[Modernman]

Why must normal people be continuously subjected to the sodomy and disease spreading sub-human behavior that is applauded by all sectors of the media?

Do you have a subscription to The Advocate? if not, you wouuld have never have seen this ad if it wasn't for this thread.

[ElkGroveDan]

And let's face it. Gays are a marketer's dream. Lots of disposable income, since they don't have to spend it on kids, they tend to be more impulsive in their buying habits.

Yeah I was a furniture salesman years ago and at first I would turn over the "boys" to other salesmen when they walked in, until I saw how much they spent and how they didn't care about the price.

It was a water bed store in North Hollywood. That view of the world caused me to quit the job WHILE I was making a fistful of money to get involved in conservative politics (and a subsequent life of borderline poverty).

[conserv13]

What are you talking about? This ad for tylenol was in a gay magazine.

[Publius6961]

How about if I just silently stop buying Johnson & Johnson products?

Of great help and much more productive, I think, would be a compilation of alternative company/products.

[squirt-gun]

WAKE UP!

Approval of homosexual behavior, while ignoring the directly related disease and social carnage normal people must shoulder because of it, is an "in your face" phenomena in every sector of the media.

[BikerNYC]

So what was Donald E. Wildmon doing reading a homersexual mag?

He reads it for the articles, I'm sure.

[tfecw]

Here are a few questions. Would you boycott J&J (good luck with that by the way) if a regular "Got a headache take Tylenol" ad were run vs one with 2 dudes in bed? Why doesn't this article list all of the advertisers so we can boycott them? Why doesn't the article list who sells this mag so they can be boycotted as well?

Why have they singled out J&J and left all these other pieces out? The message in the article is Boycott J&J not boycott the homosexual "life" and "culture" I've got nothing against J&J, the homosexual agenda is a different story.

[squirt-gun]

Pls see # 45

[mware]

How is this for irony. The New York Times advertises on the Rush Limbaugh radio show.

Okay. Even if true, what does that have to do with an ad for Tylenol in a gay magazine?
