One Million Moms Aren't Happy About Urban Outfitters' Lesbian Kiss


The advocacy group is not happy about this picture of to lasses smooching in the retailers latest catalogue.

One Million Moms, the group that derided JCPenney for hiring Ellen DeGeneres as its spokesperson, has moved on from the talk show host and is now focusing on the indie clothing boutique Urban Outfitters, The Advocate is reporting. The sorority of concerned mothers makes it their mission to "inform you about a particular issue (TV network, sponsor, or station), giving you a link to a 'take action' page on the website." so that you may "email the responsible party. That's it!" Love the deep-rooted passive aggressive bitchery implied in the "That's it!" Anyways, the trifle that is so deeply disturbing the 1 Million Madres today is an Urban Outfitters catalaogue that features two darling girls following the gospel of Katy Perry and getting their sapphic lip-lock on.

"The ad and catalog are clearly geared toward teenagers. The content is offensive and inappropriate for a teen who is the company's target customer," say the multitude of mommies. But if the Million Moms are only paying attention to the amount of lip gloss these two gals are swapping, their missing the whole point of a clothing catalogue...the clothing. However are they going to buy their daughters the coolest clothing if they don't pay attention to what all the cool kids are sporting? Lesbians are quite the taste makers these days.

The billionaire owner of Urban Outfitters is an active opponent of gay marriage and donated to Santorum's campaign.

"Liberal activists have long called for a boycott of UO, due to Hayne's conservative political beliefs, and the fact that he puts his money where his mouth is. He and his wife Margaret have contributed $13,150 to Republican Sen. Rick Santorum (a vocal opponent of same-sex marriage) and his Political Action Committee over the years. He also donated $10,000 to Meg Whitman's campaign for governor."

35,000 of those moms have a gay son, and 3,000 - 5,000 of those moms have a transgender child.

How is mom going to explain to her baby why she hates her/him because s/he is LGBTIQ?
