Oh No! Lesbian-Hating Florida Conservatives Keep Bashing Pretty Little Liars

Remember last month when the FFA (Florida Family Association) were all: “Hide yo’ kids, hide yo’ wife, Pretty Little Liars army of lesbians are coming to get you?” In case you need a refresher, the FFA, which is a conservative political organization out of Florida, expressed concern about impressionable young women being negatively affected by the girl-on-girl action on PLL, and urged ABC’s advertisers to pull their campaigns.

“McDonald's and Chrysler are leading advertisers on [the] lesbian TV show watched mostly by girls under 18,” the FFA said. “Unlike any other show on unrestricted advertiser-supported television networks, the majority of the primary cast on Pretty Little Liars are lesbians. The series has grown from one lesbian lead character to three.”

Despite the fact that only one of the fab four leading ladies on PLL is gay, the FFA have convinced one of ABC’s advertisers not to purchase advertising on the show. RE/MAX’s CEO, Margaret Kelly, sent the the FFA the following statement: “We have informed our media company to be sure to reference our list of shows that we do not want to advertise on.... this show is on the list. This should not happen again.”

Clearly RE/MAX has failed to notice the positive impact Emily (Shay Mitchell)’s sexuality has on PLL viewers. Em and her poker-playing lesbian besties inspire fans to be open and proud of their sexual orientation, and even helped ABC Family score a top GLAAD rating!

Haters gonna hate, but if these Floridians are getting on your nerves, tweet friendly messages showing your support of Pretty Little Liars to ABC Family!
