Gay designers Dolce & Gabbana make statement : gay families unnatural

The only family is the traditional one. No chemical offsprings and rented uterus: life has a natural flow, there are things that should not be changed.”
ABC.es had more of the interview and have had it translated through the flawed Google translate:
“As a gay couple, we say no to gay adoptions. Just sons of chemistry and wombs for rent. Children must have a father and a mother.”
“The family is not a fad. passenger. In it there is a supernatural sense of belonging, “says Stefano Gabbana. He is echoed by Domenico Dolce, “we have not invented the family. Has become an icon of the Holy Family. And it’s not about religion or social status, no two ways about it: you are born and there is a father and a mother. Or at least it should be. So I am not convinced that I call children of chemistry, synthetic children. Wombs for rent, elected semen from a catalog. And then go and explain to these children who the mother. Procreation must be an act of love. Today even psychiatrists are ready to face the effects of these experiments,” concludes Dolce.
Well...damn

There will undoubtedly be major blowback. theyre endorsed or worn by tons of celebrities
Of course Elton John is already trippin
Boycott
They might've wanted to wait a week for the 1st of April and gauge reaction so they could pull "we just was keeeding"

Your archaic thinking is out of step with the times, just like your fashions. I shall never wear Dolce and Gabbana ever again. #BoycottDolceGabbana

D&G must not know how to business good. You don't alienate the gays when you're in the fashion biz.

I think they make a valid point. There may be many more unforeseen issues come about from children growing up in a same-sex marriage couple as guardians situation. Especially if they were test-tube conceived. Just a crazy way about it. Procreation and mother-father have been around since...well...human being were created, male and female also exists among other species of this world.

What? So your selfish desire for a child regardless of how your life choices might affect the childs life are whats most important? Yes, there are also drug abusers who want children, are they justified in being angry if we say they shouldnt have children? Im not saying gays = drug abusers, but just because you WANT a child, doesnt mean you should have one, and its very selfish to have a narrow minded view of being able to raise a child successfully as a result of only one condition.

Elton also has two kids under the age of 5 at almost 70 yrs old. something else thats pretty selfish if you ask me

I think it's an interesting opinion they have and they make a valid point. It will be interesting 20 years down the line how well these kids are adjusted.
Sad that they will get boycotted and bashed for merely expressing their opinion, especially when they themselves are gay. However, they of all people should know that it's not good business to put your opinion out on such a sensitive issue.

As someone who lost their father at the age of 19, I agree. It kills me that he won't see me graduate from med school or get married, and Eltons kids will most likely have the same fate.

Yeah but their dad was also Elton fricking John so I think they'll get over it and count their money.

Yeah no kidding. Elton can pretty much hire an Alfred Pennyworth type of character to watch over them after he passes on. Then again, his partner is only 50ish so he'll still be around for a bit.

Well they didn't hold back
Though. I'm pretty sure their careers just ended. Gays, and the women surrounded by them, support their business. And that doesn't include all of the straight families who have used IVF to conceive their child.

No there won't. The gay community and some celebrities will whine for a week or so and then nobody will give a frick anymore and they'll lose hardly any business.

They have an opinion and now people want to boycott and destroy their business.
I'm so sick of this attitude.

D&G probably has a different customer base, so maybe making these comments was a bad idea. The self-correction will reveal itself eventually.

Yep. The protest will never leave the keyboard.

All I want are gay married couples to protect themselves from violence with a firearm while enjoying free speech rights.
That's my definition of freedom.
Also...when's the last time you saw a gay couple with a food stamp card?
