I guess gays ae no fun to hate on now. I hate people that have a strong moral compass that they store in their butts. they take it out and wave it around to show how moral they have but end up just stinking up the place.

Conservatives in Front Royal, Virginia, recently nicknamed The Footloose Town", making waves for a teenager who doesnt want to dance, she simply wants to make donuts

Front Royal, Virginia (PRWEB) September 09, 2014

Nestled in the heart of Front Royal , VA, The Naughty Girls Donut Shop made national news when it opened several month ago in a local shopping center. It was a dream come true for 16-year-old Tiana Ramos, who has a talent for baking sophisticated pastries and an affection for the glamour of 1950s pin-up girls. Armed with a business plan and a commitment from investors who also believed in her dream, Tiana opened Naughty Girls Donut Shop. It was a triumph of youthful enthusiasm and dogged determination.

The name of the shop has proven to be controversial, however, and a strong Conservative Alliance group in the town is threatening to lead a boycott. Although the name of the donut shop is admittedly edgy, the shop itself is like its donuts wholesome and fun. The decor is bright pinks and reds, and adorned with posters of Marilyn Monroe, Betty Paige and their contemporaries. The young, upbeat staff both boys and girls are dressed in modest rockabilly-style outfits. They serve delicious homemade donuts, made with local ingredients from Tianas original recipes.

Some conservative members of the community have described the shop as a bikini barista, but no one who has actually been to Naughty Girls would use that moniker. Tiana is confused and hurt by the manufactured controversy. Its not what she is about.

A strong believer in community, Tiana Ramos has donated to community events and gives a great deal of her time to non-profit entities. She has contributed more than $28,000 supporting local businesses. Tiana spent $2,000 to purchase backpacks for local children, and given more than $1,000 to local churches. She also supports the local homeless shelter, 4-H club, local athletic associations, high schools, Elk lodges, hospitals and charities.

Most recently, Tiana initiated a fundraiser on behalf of one of her waitresses, who was seriously injured when her car was hit by a drunk driver.

Tiana and her staff make donuts before school, attend classes and then return to the shop to work after school. Tiana works every weekend, as well. Shes one of the good kids. She is proud of her accomplishments, and thrilled to be able to bring empowerment to other young high school students with an entrepreneurial bent.

The Naughty Girls name is a reflection of the fun and flirty attitudes of the pin-up girls, and the deliciously decadent desserts that we allow ourselves when we want to indulge when were feeling naughty.

Natalie Ramos, Tianas mother, is disappointed that her daughters dream has been so misunderstood, especially when she has seen Tiana create such inspiration for others and invest so much of her own time and money into the people of front Royal. She said, We believe in freedom of speech and we support others in their commitment to God, but this doesnt have anything to do with any of that.

par for the course in fundie world: see something, misinterprate it, hold it against your PERSONAL standards that you think everyone else should share, make a fuss and protest and boycott. lather, rinse, repeat.

hopefully most folks will just see this as what it is - a doughnut shop - and will go there anyway. hell, if anything, maybe it'll bring her more business!

I live on the wrong coast to go there, but I would so try that donut chicken. We just got a Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles in my town and it's delish. I'm sure the donut chicken would be a similar flavor profile.

Congrats to that 16 year old for creating a successful business. Don't let the idgits get ya down!

Can I get a Ramen! :fsm:

I'm guessing this will backfire completely on the god squad and her sales will skyrocket. I hope so anyway. Man if all I had to worry about was the name of a donut shop, I'd be so happy I wouldn't need to eat there.

I guess they've never heard of Voodoo Donuts in Portland Oregon. Not only is the name oh-so-not fundie approved, but according to my stepmom, they offer a delicious penis-shaped maple bar. I've never been, so I'm making a point to go next time I visit Portland.

Edited because there's more than one Portland.

This girl is 16??? :o What a go-getter! :clap: Next time I'm in the area (which is several times a year!), I'm going to stop in and spend some money. :)

It's not maple, but chocolate. It's called the cock-and-balls, and there is cream injected into the tip and into the balls. There's also a gay bar (maple bar with rainbow fruitloops) and a bunch of other things that would make fundies clutch their pearls. I wonder if Rachel ever goes there.

You can see the variety there. Oh god I want a Memphis Mafia now. It looks like too much, but is so good. I need to have someone overnight me a box.

They're overrated, IMO. Pip's Original for doughnuts, or Salt and Straw for ice cream. But yes, there aren't exactly going to be protests over Voodoo in the city that hosts naked bike rides and an amateur porn festival...which isn't exactly something to boast about. But yeah, protesting a dought it shop? :cray-cray:

Now I'm hungry.

[ILoveJellybeans]

Now I really want donuts :(

[acheronbeach]

Off topic, but that's one of the most poorly-written news articles I've read in ages. :roll: Just godawful.

Oh God yes, the Cock and Balls. I made the mistake of asking what was inside. The girl at the counter looked at me like I was dumb and said "Cream." Of course. Of course it is.

I ate the whole thing in one sitting. I ATE THE COCK AND BALLS AND IT WAS DELICIOUS.

Not surprised that the conservatives in Front Royal are making a stink over this. Front Royal is where Christendom College is and you have to be a batshit crazy trad Catholic to go there.

pips we tried them for our wedding anniversary so good wanted to go to Annie's Donut Shop but they had run out.

[acheronbeach]

Why can't they be like normal people and just avoid shopping there?

There's a donut shop in Toronto called "Glory Hole Donuts." I won't buy the food there, because I can't bring myself to eat at a place that's basically called "jizz hole." But I'm not gonna make a stink about it, either.

Allowing for traffic on the Bay Bridge and around DC I could get there in about three hours (it's 168 miles from my house, according to Google Maps). Apparently she does ship her products out so I might place an order.

if you sample the goods, you must tell us how they are!

[Emme]

If they shipped, I'd absolutely get some doughnuts to support this awesome young lady!

I emailed the company last night and Natalie informed me that yes they do ship. One dozen donuts is $17.52 (I forgot to ask if that included tax) shipping is $25.
