As to the root of the demonisation of sexuality, well, that's possibly too big a subject for a thread discussing a furore over ice cream.

We've had more extreme deviations before.

Heh, true, I've witnessed some spectacular ones myself. But, to be fair, it goes too far beyong the extent of my knowledge, so I'll not be the one to deviate.

Yes.....

That is all...

I can see the concern: If kids eat this they might go gay...

I actually lol'd

The only way to fix this now is for them to shorten the brand name to BJ, but only on specialty flavors that others find offensive.

Well if you like the image of someone's nadgers while licking your lolly that is your business.

Again macho gamer not offended by danglies joke.
Gosh we are so hard and radical. Let us mock a million housewives for being a bunch of prudes

The point is that no-one is actually offended by this. Go out into the street and yell out 'balls' at the top of your lungs. People will think you're childish or lame, but they won't be shocked. They won't be quickly covering their children's ears.

You keep working on the assumption that there must be something offensive going on for a group to feign outrage, and it just doesn't work that way. Being able to think of oneself as a brave moral crusader is a powerful thing. So much so that people will go looking for something to be outraged over.
