Hijacking Katy Perry's breasts for a cause?

FCKH8.com is one of the many causes I follow on Facebook. They're a pretty in-your-face LGBT advocacy group, originally formed to fight California's homophobic Prop 8 with joyful profanity.

I was a little disappointed at this tactic, however.

The topless pic was nicked from a 2010 photoshoot by Yu Tsai for Esquire UK.

The Facebook post reads:

KATY PERRY: "I am a gay activist & I say that proudly. I voted no on Prop 8, of course. I definitely believe in equality."
♥ 10% Off "STR8 Against H8" & "Chicks Marry Chicks" Tees, Tanks & Hoodies w/ Code "LOVE" @ http://FCKH8.com/"LIKE" the Cause on FB FCKH8.com

Here's the thing. FCKH8 are fighting the good fight. But using other people's work — and other people's likenesses — without permission is not cool. Especially when you're using their sexuality to sell your own t-shirts.

Second, using a woman's breasts to get attention is not exactly progressive marketing. Even if she says she's an ally.

You can do better, folks. You're too big for this.

Who needs Princes?

This image was recently shared on Facebook by A Girl's Guide To Taking Over The World.

Since my lesbian friends on FB gave it the "thumbs up" I figured I could share it here and have it taken in the appropriate "Some chicks marry chicks. Get over it." context.

I think my gal-lovin' gal friends liked it because the body language shows real passion and affection, not just "making out".

I'm not sure Disney will be as pleased.
