Come as you are

French McDonald's ad campaign targets gay men

A new McDonald's television ad campaign set to hit French airwaves isn't shy about its target - gay men. In the commercial, a father and son sit down to enjoy a meal. The dad is unaware of his sons homosexuality.

The video (with subtitles) has been viewed more than one million times on YouTube.


McDonald's contends that the ad shows it welcomes people of all orientations. Hence the slogan "Come as you are."

We're guessing this ad won't be "coming" to America any time soon.
