Transgender commercials not appropriate

How is it ok for you all to show Transgender Commercials. Young kids watch shows on Roku and this **bleep** is disgusting for kids to see. And the same commercials all the time over and over. What a joke your Roku has become.

I fear you won't find commercials to be much different on other platforms.

Re: Transgender commercials not appropriate

Agree. Watching college gameday and a freedom credit card shows men with full beard wearing female dresses. I don’t want to see that. Why do I have to see that? Show those commercials to transgender but I don’t want to see them. 
They are acting like that behavior is normal and young kids are watching.

Re: Transgender commercials not appropriate

I completely agree! A certain commercial that shows males dressing as females makes me sick, and it is on every single channel all the time! I absolutely do not agree with this being shown on regular channels, at all times of the day. There are gay channels that it can be played on. I'm so glad my kids are grown, because I'd probably not allow them to watch TV because of this kind of stuff. It's NOT normal, I want nothing to do with it, and I am tired of changing the channel all the time so I don't have to watch it. They need to treat us with respect, and quit shoving this kind of stuff in our faces. If they think it's going to get us used to it, they need to know that it's having an absolute opposite reaction!

I completely agree! I've lost a lot of respect for roku. We shouldn't have to watch commercials that very few people are interested in. If they're going to show men dressing as women, etc, then show it between midnight and 5am, when the wackos are watching, not times of the day when there are children and mainly regular people watching! It makes me sick!

Fully agree. This stuff is out of control. I upvoted this. I also notice there is a suggestion to be able to block this genre on another board, pls consider upvoting and leaving a comment for Roku to hear: https://community.roku.com/t5/Suggest-a-Feature/Ability-to-Block-LGBTQP-content/m-p/879998#M7894
