I have had to post this before and I am having to post it again.

Intolerance to people's sexual orientation, their race, gender, handicap, religion, political leanings, etc. will NOT be accepted in this community.

If an ad makes you want to leave a comment that is just a hateful statement against people's sexual orientation, etc. I have three suggestions for you:

1. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT (meaning don't leave a comment)
2. LEAVE THE COMMUNITY (if you leave the comment I'll remove you)
3. post your personal feelings of HATE and INTOLERANCE on YOUR personal LJ, not in MY community

ALL community members are to feel welcome here. If anyone EVER feels unwelcome here based on comments left (or even if you feel an ad is offensive), please contact me---send me a LJ message or email me misstiaemail@yahoo.com and I will handle it.

For the 99.9% of members who understand this, THANK YOU, for making this community great!

*applauds* I'm not active in this community (at all) but I do really respect mods who care about making people feel welcome. Thank you for that.

And here I thought I was just being nosy by looking back to see what went on lol No excitement, just a ignorant bigot spouting off at the keyboard.

Is this in reference to my prostitution comment? I was actually trying to reference the Victorian usage of "gay" as another term for prostitute. Looking back, it isn't nearly as funny now as it was then. Sorry.

Not sure what I missed, but I could use some new towels, if you know what I mean.

For pity's sake, that ad has been here before and its kinda cute in a clueless sort of way. Definately not something that should be ranted over.

Awesome of you to knock the jackalope out of the picture.

I looked for an ad for Earring Magic Ken doll, but he was released in 1993 so he's not quite vintage enough for this comm, darn it!

Ok, so that was the year my *younger* bratling was born, and since his older sister hated (and still does) dolls of all sorts, I missed out on that one, lol!

....I still cannot believe he's off to college this year. And his sister about to be 29. And me still rocking the unnatural hair colors... ;)

Earring Magic Ken is in Wikipedia. Look him up. He was very briefly a gay male icon, and was Mattel's best-selling Ken doll ever, but the objections from the religious right made them stop making him.

Oh, I know of him, yep. But I didn't have an excuse to add him to the barbie collection! :)

Thanks for that, but so far I haven't been able to find any ads. Lots of pictures, but so far no actual ads.

There's always that classic "Wake up GAY in the morning!" ad.
