US Olympian slams ‘ridiculous’ gay luge ad
SOCHI, February 11, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A member of the American luge team in Sochi is furious over an ad produced by a Canadian homosexual advocacy group, saying the attempt to portray doubles luging as sexually suggestive in order to promote "gay rights" is “ridiculous” and “sad.” The 33-second video, produced by the Canadian Institute of Diversity and Inclusion (CIDI), features two figures sitting on a luge sled and swaying back and forth suggestively to music with the lyrics "Don't you want me baby.” A screen grab from the sexualized 'gay luge' advertisement. The ad ends with the tagline: “The Games have always been a little gay. Let’s fight to keep them that way.” “It’s a gross misrepresentation of everything. All of it seems like a lie to me,” three-time Olympian luger Christian Niccum told Reuters. “To compare sports to sexuality is ridiculous." The ‘gay luge’ ad can be viewed on Youtube here .
