Just how gay couples in television commercials ended up being a mainstream sensation

The Trademark Channel recently determined to draw a Zola commercial off the air that featured a lesbian couple kissing during their wedding.

Originally, that felt like an all-too familiar put in the face for gay Americans, probably also a step back for their cumulative social standing. Yet after that a frustrating backlash against Trademark on social networks as well as somewhere else compelled the network to reverse course-- a moment that is currently being hailed yet another social landmark for LGBTQ Americans in marketing.

Tv ads aren't as crucial in the digital advertising and marketing age as they were a generation earlier, but in some ways they represent a final frontier of mainstream cultural acceptance for gay equal rights, according to a number of marketing experts who specialize in aiding significant companies market products to the gay community.

\" It's not concerning gay people as much as it is contemporary customers,\" Bob Witeck, president of the LGBTQ marketing and also communications consulting firm Witeck Communications, told CNN Business. \"One of the means to be modern is to be comprehensive of LGBTQ people. It's less filled, I believe, also than race. ... Gay and also LGBTQ consumers, Gen Z as well as Millennials, their perspectives are so different concerning the ordinariness of same sex marital relationship today.\"
