Kenneth Cole is almost as famous for his clever ad campaigns as he is for his sleek, understated designs. He's also a straight man who has never shied away from very openly supporting equality for all, and a dedicated proponent of AIDS awareness. His most recent advertising coup was caught on a billboard that espoused the fact that the privilege of same-sex marriage was only just recently bestowed upon the gay community, yet they were expected -- required, really -- to participate in the basic demands of the government, like paying one's taxes. Ah, Kenneth...you're a wise man and a witty one too.
