The makers of Dove are running an online contest – Better Than Ever – asking customers what in their life is better than ever, as well as submitting a before and after photo. Matt Kansas submitted an entry accompanied by a before and after photograph, writing “I always knew deep down inside I was a raging homosexual. I tried to suppress it by dating girls. I hate living a lie. I was depressed and miserable. NOW! I am living my life as an openly gay man! I can love whom I want and not be ashamed or scared of who I am attracted to. And THAT is why my love life is better than ever.” The inclusivity on the part of Dove is great and all but I feel so bad for the girl in the before picture.
