“Hot Lesbian” Ad Gets Canadian Oil Sands More Publicity Than It Deserves
Oilprice.com ^ | 02-08-2016 | Canada Is Weird

n possibly one of the biggest marketing blunders of the millennium, a Canadian Oil Sands group has managed to alienate groups from almost every walk of life with their recent Facebook meme that prompted people to choose Canadian oil over Saudi oil—because, as the meme read, “In Canada, lesbians are considered hot! In Saudi Arabia, if you’re a lesbian, you die!”

The ad went on to query, “Why are we getting our oil from countries that don’t think lesbians are hot?”

You might be thinking that the Coke/New Coke marketing blunder was bad, but the hot-lesbian ad, particularly in today’s politically correct day and age, is sure to bump some of the worst marketing blunders off their top spot.

People who think lesbians are “hot” are only acquainted with the porn star variety.

There are quite a few in my neighborhood and the nicest thing I can say is that stereotypes exist for a reason.

Oddly enough, the ad actually stands up for lesbians.

It's called "aspirational advertising," LOL.

I visit lesbian bars because I like to be the best looking person in the joint.

Most lesbians look like Russian potato farmer’s wives.

The Saudi regime’s crimes go well beyond how it treats its lesbians, but who really cares about that?

You two better pony up some serious coin for either some industrial strength eye bleach, or some whiskey strong enough to wash THAT image out my head.

That’s just wrong on so many levels.

While living in Puyallup, WA I knew 3 committed lesbians who lived together and had 5 kids between them.

All 3 were physically beautiful. Gorgeous.

There is nothing wrong with that ad. Of course muzzards are going to get mad when someone says that they are backward violent savages.

In a past single life I met some very attractive lesbians and not of the porn star variety. In fact some were nice intelligent girls who seemed very dateable, until you learned their orientation. They were mostly younger and kind of naive, their partners tended to be domineering, crude, insecure, and usually heavy drinkers, not a good combination. They were pretty girls who were tired of dealing with guys and they still ended up with jerks. And, as the Plimsouls would say “that’s the oldest story in the world”.

Sounds like you’re describing “casual” lesbians... they get sick of guys, go experiment, then get sick of bull dykes and go back to guys. Permanent lesbians are pretty much all too ugly to attract men in the first place.
