Discovery channel complaint: HIV commercial Apretude
Filed 21 Nov 2022 by Ivy
Very provocative commercial come on advertising hiv medication showing gay men swooing each other and also kissing. I felt busted and disgusted! I have nothing against gay people, but this commercial is way too provocative and I especially dont want my children exposed that crap. This commercial needs to be removed from cable tv. Besides, anyone can get hiv, not just gay men.

You are right. Aperture commercial is disgusting. It should not be on tv. People who need it know about it already.

It makes normal people want to barf and they even make it biracial gay kiss. That is terrible and should be banned.

Even those of us who believe in acceptance find this commercial disgusting. Why can't those with alternative lifestyles just keep their lives private? No muss, no fuss. Or give me (and I mean, just me) an equal, lucrative, ad spot with an attractive man to kiss, let's say, a much-younger man to kiss... pushing those boundaries? Equal time offered, and I'll hush up!

Do u hug, kiss, hold your significant other in public? What makes you have more rights than a gay couple to do the same?

This drug insinuates that sex is the only way to get HIV, AND that gays, crossdressers and 3 some are where you get the disease. It's inappropriate for tv. I'm sick of kids being exposed on every channel to this sick new push.
