Hawthorne Lobster House - SEXIST ADVERTISING SLOGAN MUST GO!

The Hawthorne Lobster House, which opened for business in 2014, has used as it's slogan: The Hawthorne Lobster House - THE BEST TAIL IN PORTLAND (their capitalization, by the way) and from the first television ad until present it has offended with its blatant metaphor for women's anatomy and the sexual 'having' of same.

It seemed for a short while, that perhaps The Hawthorne Lobster House had thought 'better' of their sexist advertising practice and had decided NOT to continue including 'THE BEST TAIL IN PORTLAND' as it was for a time missing from their ads.

It's BACK. Perhaps The Hawthorne Lobster House became 'weary in well doing'. Perhaps enough oppositional thinkers suggested they NOT 'give in' to pressure that The Hawthorne Lobster House may have experienced - leading to the omission of the offensive advertising tag line. Perhaps they feel like adding the offensive advertising tag line will actually add to their business.

In any event it is WHOLLY UNACCEPTABLE. It is SEXIST and Sexist is no different than Racist, Classist, Agist, Fattist, or any and every other derogatory representation of a group or class of people.

Please let The Hawthorne Lobster House know that you expect them to STOP using the offensive and demeaning advertising tag line THE BEST TAIL IN PORTLAND now and forEVER.

Please read and consider adding your name to this petition. Women and girls (as well as the men who love them) will and should be grateful.
