The fascinating piece is that it still claims a moral authority…a moral authority that having opinions about sexuality and its expression and its effect on public policy is “hypocritical.” This is true for the sexual libertine…

Christians have never claimed that heterosexual promiscuity should be encouraged, we were mocked for discouraging it. Yet, now that a second sexual behavior issue is in the forefront, it seems we are implicitly criticized for having a double standard…

Not the case…Christians have always been a bummer when it comes to sexual freedom.

The McDonald’s advertisement is aimed squarely at the heterosexual libertine who a) is out of touch with his own son in a profound way and b) does not manifest any values about sexuality except elitism and freedom.

I can clearly see what has everyone so upset. The father’s blatant encouragement of heterosexual promiscuity in his son is shocking and indeed would be offensive to many Americans.

So true! Thank you for point out the REAL controversy. I love the French commercial and I wish McDonald’s would gut it up and show it here in the US. It’s beautiful.

phone and you didn’t want your parents hear what your talking about. So, you tell

your Parent coming or is I have to go, I call your later, or you excuse yourself and

go into another room.

I’m Tired of people complaining about McDonalds, Remember it is called FREEDOM of choice, STOP blaming every one else because you like to eat,

Start by cutting down what you eat. REMEMBER alot of people rely of McDonalds

for jobs, SO, back off.

AMERICA, FREEDOM OF CHOICE

TV culture is full of contrivances that we willingly tolerate to the point of absurdity, especially in sexuality: they must endorse a view of sexuality that is an indulgence of heterosexual, bi-sexual and homosexual freedom…under the rubric of freedom and tolerance.

It is not entertainment and it doesn’t sell happy meals to write scripts or ads about the benefits of sexual restraint and devotion.

But that shouldn’t surprise us as if products and shows are not Sexy, they don’t sell.

Yet, the advertisement and entertainment medium seeks to morally inform us about the proper attitudes around sexual behavior…sexual behavior they hare trying to exploit to sell and entertain.

Seem like a farce waiting to be written.
