[MrGrov]

For the EuroPride festival in Stockholm which starts on the 25th of July, Swedish match have designed special gay snus cans and lids. Have a look at them here:

I think this really goes to show how socially and culturally neanderthal the United States really is. Could you Phillip Morris releasing Marlboro Rainbows?

Imagine US Smokeless announcing Pride Skoal. It would be business suicide.


I want the Brown Bear can lid. I'd rock that thing in a heartbeat.

Rawr! I am hairy man-bear snuser!

I'd order the can if I could read the damn site

What the hell? Show your status or pride by consuming products with targeted advertising! Buy a t-shirt and save the world!

I've seen some funny stuff but this is pretty damn hilarious! Gay snus!! ROFL!

Hey, it's all a way of getting into the wallets of the gay folks - show them you "care" by branding yourself with "pride" and joining a parade.

I now feel discriminated against....They should make one now for straight guys. Put, a pic of boobies on it.

[czar]

holy crap that is the gayest shit I ever seen... I'm with you on the booby tin. They should make a "Vag Can" tha'd be nice, maybe there could be a slogan "catch a wif of this"

Is the US backwards, a bunch of cultural neanderthals?

Heh, well, that's your opinion, sir. And you're allowed to have it.

I strongly disagree.

I look up north to Canada, and overseas to parts of Europe, and I see a clamping down on freedom of opinion, and that makes me really glad that I'm in the US. You see, just because homosexuals have the government on their side on this issue doesn't mean that once their rights are gone that the governing bodies will still be looking out for their best interests in the upcoming years.

What kind of person would call homosexuals a bunch of backwards neanderthals? The lowest kind: it's obvious that such a bigot should be arrested by the government for hateful speech. But maybe that same person would call the US culturally backwards and a bunch of neanderthals, if only his bias were against the United States instead of homosexuals? Ah, but that's a popular belief at the moment, so that makes it okay to be two-faced about insulting people based on their culture and/or preferences...



Sorry to bring controversy in here, let's just talk about snus.

LOL, that's about as close to a "vag can" as it's gonna get.

Relax Bo.

I think what he was saying is that a US business like Phillip Morris would be killing themselves by marketing to the gay community. As much as we would like to think that they could and would, they would never. Although there are huge alternative lifestyle areas throughout the US. Do you really think the rednecks and hillbillies in US Big Tobacco would put a rainbow or pink triangle on their packaging?

Swedish Match (and most copmpanies outside the US) are fully capable of doing this and targeting their audience and being praised for doing so.

The US is so closed-minded about this, that I feel that a company like PM or US Smokeless would rather go belly-up than risk their "good-old boy" image marketing to an alternative lifestyle.
