Bud Light received major financial backlash after pushing LGBTQ ideology on its customers and now Cavin Klein could experience the same effect.
An ad from Calvin Klein’s 2022 pride campaign went viral earlier this week and has many long-term customers of the brand no longer interested in buying Calvin Klein clothes anymore.
The ad depicted an obese trans man wearing a woman’s sports bra.

The New York Post added these details:
A Calvin Klein ad from 2022 featuring a bearded transgender man in a sports bra before top surgery has gone viral — after Bud Light’s promotion with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney sparked a firestorm.
Bappie Kortram, a tattooed trans influencer from the Netherlands, wore a bra that read “This is love” along with exposed underwear in the Calvin Klein Pride 2022 Campaign.
“Calvin Klein wants to go broke,” Danish physician Anastasia Maria Loupis said in a tweet on Tuesday alongside the image, which quickly generated a backlash against the fashion brand.
“What a great way to ‘Bud Light’ themselves,” one critic responded.
Bud Light, Target, North Face, and Calvin Klein. Who will be the next company infected with the woke mind virus? This is not financially smart. You get what you deserve. Oh well!
