Content Analysis Discussion Answer
I found a commercial online called “The Secret Life of Flowers” a promotional video from Erdem x H&M. This portrayal features two boys who seem to have a relationship. Towards the end of the video, the boy (bisexual) was caught kissing a girl by his partner. This commercial received mixed reactions from people. While others find it fashionable and excellently written, others see it as a backlash against the bisexual community.
