First of its kind gay-themed Television ad to air in New York and Los Angeles, but not in San Francisco! Boy Butter ad deemed “too controversial” by Cable Operator.
The makes of Boy Butter, the hot-selling personal lubricants, were a little nervous about launching their first TV ad campaign, so they chose markets with a high gay (and presumably gay-friendly) population. They got the OK from every city — except San Francisco.
The thirty second ad spoofs an iconic campaign from the early 90’s, featuring only the hands of two men and a voice-over of playful banter tinged with mild sexual innuendo. One hand applies the Boy Butter as both men exchange a knowing giggle.
The commercial will air soon on mainstream cable networks like Bravo, Oxygen, E and Logo in New York and Los Angeles. But the rejection in the world capitol of gay culture shocked the team at gay owned and operated Boy Butter.
“Another gay milestone is happening and it is such a shame that San Francisco of all places will miss out on the fun,” exclaims Eyal Feldman, creator and owner of Boy Butter. “It smacks of anti-gay bias and makes me feel like fighting for truth, justice, and personal lubrication!”
The commercial is available for viewing at YouTube/boybutter
