Macy's and Pride

As June descends upon us tomorrow, I'm reminded of that Pride, not so many years ago when MassResistance complained to Macy's because of their transgender mannequins...yes, they said Macy's had transgendered mannequins and even took pictures of other mannequins in the store to compare and contrast. Macy's caved and gave into the crazy group only to find out how really crazy they really were and faced a HUGE backlash. Macy's made up for their faux pas and has continually supposed the LGBT community. This was more than evident in the ad below which I found in Out Magazine:

Of course, MassResistance wouldn't dare suggesting a boycott because they are powerless. No one even cares what they have to say anymore.

UPDATE: I was wrong, MassResistance IS suggesting another boycott because Old Navy is selling T-shirts celebrating LGBT Pride:

FIGHT BACK!

Old Navy REALLY needs to hear from as many of you as possible. It won't take you long, but will be effective. Let them know you will NEVER shop in their stores EVER, and you will spread the word.

Contact Old Navy NOW:

Hey Old Navy! Call Macy's and ask them how MassResistance's boycott worked out. LOL

Oooo, flashy-backy. This was the era that MR listed a long set of LGBT supporting companies their minions were supposed to boycott. Of course, scanning the list showed plainly that this huge and deep set of corporate America favored gay rights. Imagine that. The sad little duo at MR never seemed to realize what was obvious to the rest of us. Double ha!
