After Oreo and Douwe Egberts (Dutch coffee brand), Etsy, the craft e-commerce site, also wanted an advertisement showing acceptiance same-sex couples in their families. For the holiday season, they've created an advertising campaign based on three stories, each showing the power of a meaningful gift. It is a story of acceptance, one of inclusion and one of connection, che goes through unique and personalized gifts that can be found on their e-commerce site. The first, with an LGBT + theme, is called "New Guy" and shows the story of Brandon and David, a couple of gay African American boys who are about to enter David's parents' home for the Christmas dinner, who reassures Brandon that he will meet his family on that occasion: "Don't be worried, they'll love you." Brandon receives a personalized gift from his father-in-law. The commercial is running now on European television networks and online.
