WATCH: Nordstrom Holiday Ad Features Gay Male Kiss – “The Homecoming” – Video

Nordstrom gay Christmas Commercial

Nordstrom the American upscale fashion retailer has created a holiday commercial that feature’s two gay men kissing

The commercial titled The Homecoming shows an impeccably dressed man arriving home carrying his luggage and a Nordstrom bag. He picks up a dog happy for his arrival, then he shares a kiss and hug with another man.

The rabidly right-wing website American Thinker  criticized Hulu for running the ad during programs that don’t include a “large proportion of Haight-Ashbury and Greenwich Village types” viewers. And admonished  Hulu for running the ad during reruns of The Rifleman and Dennis the Menace.

“[These shows] are generally watched by those who long for more innocent programming” and children, the site said.

Nordstrom has a 100% rating in the Human Rights Campaign Buyers Guide.

Gee, HRC finally got one right.

 

Clothing Franchise Nordstrom Supports Marriage Equality

In a show of support Thursday, international clothing franchise Nordstrom leaders advised over 56,000 employees in an email that the company now supports marriage equality and the measure to have same sex marriages legalized in Washington State:

“It is our belief that our gay and lesbian employees are entitled to the same rights and protections marriage provides under the law as our other employees. We also believe supporting freedom to marry will help us create a more attractive and inclusive workplace for our current and prospective employees.”

The company joins Microsoft, Nike, Starbucks and Amazon.com (who have already given 2.5 million to ensure that the bill passes). Overall the bill may be the first bill in which marriage is legally voted into a state’s constitution.
