'One Million Moms' Throws A Fit Over Mattress Commercial That 'Glamorized' Same-Sex Couples

'One Million Moms' Throws A Fit Over Mattress Commercial That 'Glamorized' Same-Sex Couples

The Evangelical Christian group called One Million Moms is telling their followers to sign a petition voicing their disgust over a mattress commercial that showed three same-sex couples.

The 30-second commercial is for an organic mattress and pillow company called Avocado.


In that short clip, multiple families are shown—a straight young couple, a mom with her baby, an elderly couple, a family with kids, a lesbian couple and two gay couples.

One Million Moms is claiming this advertisement has "glamorized" same-sex couples.

Their petition reads:

"Avocado Mattress should be ashamed of its commercial for attempting to normalize sin by featuring same-sex couples in bed together."
"The newest commercial for organic mattresses not only promotes same-sex relationships by including a lesbian couple and a homosexual couple who are both very much together and cuddling, but also glamorizes it by being misleading."
"The ad states, 'Love is Pure … And Natural.'"
"There is nothing pure or natural about homosexuality."
"The advertisement ends with these words: 'With enough love, we can change the world. Avocado, natural as love.'"
"Promoting same-sex relationships has nothing to do with marketing the product."
"Yet Avocado wants to make it clear where the company stands on this controversial topic, instead of remaining neutral in the culture war."
"One Million Moms continues to stand up for biblical truth, which is very clear about this particular sexual perversion (Romans 1:26-27).
"There is great concern about the way this advertisement is pushing the LGBTQ agenda especially when children are likely to be watching television."
"To make matters worse, this advertisement has aired during family viewing time."

Given the name One Million Moms, you would think their petition would be gaining more traction but it currently only has just over 13 thousand signatures.

Which makes sense, seeing as the advertisement has been praised by many people for the very reason One Million Moms hate it.













Once again, love wins.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
