McDonald�s Ad in France Goes Gay

The McDonald’s Corporation in France is running a traditional father and son ad with a huge spin, the teen-aged son is gay, according to The Financial Post.

The 40 second spot, entitled “Come As You Are,” shows a father treating his son to a burger, fries and a coke.  Meanwhile, his son is on his cell, flirting with a male classmate who appears to be his boyfriend.  As the dad heads back to the table with their food, the son quickly hangs up the phone. 

Nathalie Legarlantezec, the company’s Brand Director in France said, “we wanted to show society the way it is today, without judging. There’s obviously no problem with homosexuality in France today.”

Makes you wonder, when are we going to see an ad like this in the U.S.?
