Do you like Chipotle?

(Musty mentions stealth ads)

Barbarian chuckles:
Clever. Hide the real point of the ad so only the homos would recognize it.

Are you saying that musterion is a homo?

Oops. Let's change that to "so only homos and those obsessed with homosexuality would recognize it."

Chipotle does like to spread Communist propaganda:

I enjoy reading the takeout bags, but except for the general literature, I don't agree with it most of the time.

I was a little put out that they temporarily couldn't find a source for organic carnitas. I mean, would it have killed anyone to have done non-organic carnitas for a few weeks?

Stupidity and vulgarity have always been a mainstay of corporate advertising. Anything for buck, as they say.

Not very stealthy then since “obsessed with homosexuality” could describe most of the nation these days.

But while we’re at it, for musterion’s sake let’s include “those concerned about the dangers of homosexuality” as well.

Not as many as just a few years ago.

A later and more rigorous study published in a prestigious psychology journal showed that people could accurately judge sexual orientation.[6] This study asked people to indicate their sexual orientation using the Kinsey scale and then had others view very brief silent clips of the people talking using thin-slicing. The viewers rated their sexual orientations on the same scale and the researchers found a significant correlation between where the people said they were on the scale and where they were perceived to be on the scale. Sexual orientation was therefore perceived accurately just from nonverbal behaviors. Later studies have repeated this finding[7] and have even shown that home videos of children can be used to accurately judge their sexual orientation later in life.[8]

Later studies found that gaydar was also accurate at rates greater than chance for judgments just from the face. Study participants use gendered facial cues and stereotypes of gay people to make their judgments, but reliably misjudge sexual orientation for people countering stereotypes.[9] The race, ethnicity, and nationality of neither the person making the judgment nor the person they are judging seems to make a difference when making judgments from faces.[10][11][12] Even individual facial features (just the eyes) can sometimes give enough information to tell whether a man or woman is gay, straight, or lesbian.[13][14] One study showed that judgments of men’s[15] and women’s[14] faces for about 1/25th of a second was enough time to tell whether they were gay, straight, or lesbian. People’s judgments were not any more accurate when they had more time to make their judgments. Follow-up work to this suggested that gaydar happens automatically when someone sees another person and that seeing someone’s face automatically activates stereotypes about gays and straights.[16] People seem not to know that they have gaydar, though.[13] Gay men have better gaydar than straight men[17] and women have better gaydar when they are ovulating.

Are you trying to say that one can easily identify the gayness of a restaurant by its ads and we should act accordingly?

Research seems to indicate that some people, for whatever reasons, are more attuned to that kind of thing.

I do wonder if gays are overdoing a victory dance over the relatively quick reversal of public opinion. That door can swing both ways.

Was “research” needed? Seems obvious that different people would notice things differently and for different reasons.

Good point. In fact, I’ve already executed my little boycott. Drove right by a Chipotle yesterday and had an excellent lunch elsewhere.

Chick-fil-A, I presume?

From the article: "If there are some who find it insensitive, we certainly apologize for that," he told Business Insider."

If there are still any of those Christian bigots in existence.

Homosexuality is: forbidden (Lev. 18:22), considered an abomination (1 Kin. 14:24), punishment for (Lev. 20:13), unclean (Rom. 1:24, 26, 27). :vomit:

Drove by another Chipotle yesterday without stopping. Very satisfying!
