NOM = Epic Fail of an Organization

Word of the Gay: "NOMbie"

"NOMbie" is a new word used to refer to people who subscribe to the views of the anti-gay National Organization for Marriage (NOM). "NOMbies" commonly infiltrate pro-equality message boards, blogs, and air waves to spread their views of hate and aspirations for a country where gays have no rights.

Web Spotlight: 2M4M

2M4M is a new website that has been launched and plans to go into full operation after this weekend. The website which stands for two men for marriage is a parody on the anti-gay National Organization for Marriage campaign 2M4M a campaign of two million for marriage (heterosexual marriage only). What the brilliant marketers at NOM failed to realize is that M4M is a widely used personals acronym for male for male, as well as the title of a popular gay how to dating book. So 2M4M, sounds like a homosexual orgy, the last thing NOM would want to discuss. It is with great anticipation we announce the launch of this website.

Schubert Flint Public Affairs Continues Anti-Gay Marriage Ads

Schubert Flint Public Affairs is an advertising agency that created many of the ads that helped proposition 8 pass in California, leading to same-sex marriage rights being taken away in the state.

The "National Organization for Marriage" an anti-gay think tank, is continuing their relationship with the ad agency in an attempt to further erode marriage rights for same-sex couples.

I will not give NOM the pleasure of linking to their videos but I can tell you that they are using the typical fear tactics in their messages such as:

“Legalizing gay marriage has consequences for kids.”

Another ad is backed by an unnerving repeated beep that sounds like an EKG on the fritz in an ICU. Someone could die! The ad warns that if legislators pass a marriage equality bill, soon children “will be thinking the unthinkable.”

Join The Power in telling Schubert Flint Public Affairs to stop profiting off of hate.
