Advertising company pulls down 'transphobic' Caitlyn Jenner Xmas billboard after outcry from transgender community

Following a public backlash, a New Zealand Company has pulled down a transphobic Christmas billboard featuring a photo of Caitlyn Jenner. The image, taken from her Vanity Fair cover reads: "I hope your sack is fuller than mine this Christmas. Merry Christmas from Cranium."

The company behind the billboard, Cranium Signage on Tuesday, December 1, apologized on Facebook, saying

"We have removed our post and are now removing the sign tonight due to people taking offence. It was not our intention to offend any people in the community/world. I as the owner have no feelings of discrimination to the Gay or transgender community and if one of my family was I would love them just the same. Cait is more than welcome to stay at my house with my family anytime. I will have a wine or a beer with her quite happily and it would be an honour. Lots of love Phil wishing you all a Merry Christmas"

In a later update, the company revealed that they had made a donation to an LGBT youth group. "We apologize to all those who have been offended by our sign. It was very poor judgement on our part. We have made a donation to Rainbow Youth who support queer & gender diverse youth in New Zealand"

  10. Caitlyn and his colleagues can't live without attention.
    They don't love themselves either, they see Cait as a threat now. The guy himself looks pathetic yes he's a guy, it takes beyond cosmetic surgery, make-up and women clothes/shoes to be a woman.
    Biggest scam of all times is Bruce/Caitlyn.
    He lived his life a man, had as many kids as he wanted, just because he can't satisfy any woman now doesn't make him a woman. His kids are constant reminder and proof he's a man.

  12. People have become too sensitive and ironically the world has become harsher at the same time.

  13. Lol! To me that is simply creative. And am sure it has already achieved the aim for which it was done! It's viral.
