The ad text is titled “Don’t let it stand behind your back They called you “gay”!It tells the story of (probably invented) Zygmunt Banasiuk, a man in his forties who had erectile dysfunction. Disappointed with his nervousness, his partner had to ask him if he was (so) gay. It also spread among her friends – as we read in the ad – that Zygmont was “looking for cover because he couldn’t stand it”, and his colleagues linked to these rumours. accusing him of being “a homosexual”.
A separate issue is the derogatory statements about women in the text, such as: “sexy girls in the cabaret”, “who are waiting to have sex”, “chicks”, who “hold on” to the physical protagonist and ask him to “play with them” or ” Cute blondes are waiting to have sex with them.” “The more men there are satisfy the child’s thirstthe more beautiful the world ”- says the conclusion of the text.
Pedronka pulls the edition …

Terrible thing ”- says the service journalist, adding:“ But I was so surprised No one has a problem posting This ad. “

Echo Richards embodies a personality that is a delightful contradiction: a humble musicaholic who never brags about her expansive knowledge of both classic and contemporary tunes. Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music. This passion seamlessly translates into her problem-solving skills, with Echo often drawing inspiration from melodies and rhythms. A voracious reader, she dives deep into literature, using stories to influence her own hardcore writing. Her spirited advocacy for alcohol isn’t about mere indulgence, but about celebrating life’s poignant moments.
