The bizarre rules of condom advertising

it's all about which special interest group you're going to piss off (thank you organized religion).

Important to note though, just like this pig, the OJ special didn't fly.

I saw the pig commercial last night. I commented to my husband that I understand the the "Men are pigs" them, and by getting a condom it was to make you thing that he was less of a pig. Not so much! I thought the opposite. He assumed the girl was into that kind of a relationship with him. To be honest, I was disgusted with that commercial. I would just like to see some sense of traditional moral values in advertising again. Everything is based on casual sex--from shampoo (Herbal Essence) to candy bars (M&Ms). Not funny and it definitely does not make me want to run out and buy those products. Even more so, I have a pre-teen daughter who is beginning to ask a lot of questions. I sure do not want her thinking that everything has value because of its sex appeal.

I have come to believe that everything we do or want is sex based. From procreation thu power over another to receiving power from another.
Why do women wear lip colour? To remind men of the pink of their vaginas. Or why is bought scent a must-- if one stinks one cannot generally smell ones self--so we want to smell good for others, mainly theopposite sec. Just look at commercials for scents!
Our first thought when encountering the opposite sex is sexual. The second thought concerns what to about the first.
Therefore, SEX rules...Sine qua non!

I never really looked at a girl's lips and thought that before. Other things did come to mind though. Okay....how about the women that wear black lipstick? Other orifice?

When I was sixteen, one trojan was carried by every boy in high school. Most were tucked away in our wallets,where over time,they created an indelible ring,visible on the outside. We thought pulling them out of our pockets (casually) to show pictures,remove money,etc.was the epitamy of cool. In those days there were no commercials for trojans,hemeroids,jock itch or anything suggesting genitals or overt sex. Three wives later,I still have the wallet.(only as a souvenir of course!)

I wish they had condom commercials when I was a teen maybe I might not of had twins at the age of 17 we had sex ed but who realy listend back then we thought everything could be cured with a shot of penicilin only time you seen a condom was behind the counter of your Pharmacy or in a bathroom you were you should not of been in drinking beer you were to young for too!

I saw the commercial maybe if they had condom commercials when I was a teen I would not have had twins at 17 we had sex ed but who listend back then we thought everything could be cured with a shot there was not enough publicity then,and I believe anything you can do to prevent desease or unwanted pregnancy it is the responsability of the familys and ad agencys to get the information out were it will save someones life this is from someone who's had 2 wifes and 8 children im 43 and still havent learned.

lets sell some rubbers!

Maybe if they had Condom commercials back when I was a teen I wouldn't have had twins at 17 the only time I saw a condom was in a bathroom of a bar I wasn't suppost to be in or behind a counter of the local pharmacy most young men were to embarased to ask for,we had sex ed back then but who listend,we thought everything could be cured with a shot of penicilin that was 2 marriages and 8 children ago im 43 now and have finaly learned where the condom isle is at the grocery store at 43 who needs them now!its our responsability to get the information to the young public to prevent unwanted pregnancy and deseases that ajax won't take away I preach this to my childen constantly and if they are to embarassed to go buy them they are to young for the responsability that comes with having sex!

back when trojans were a quarter, i had a friend who father owned a bar, in that bar he had a machine in each bathroom, he made about 20 bucks a week off of those empty machines and never once did someone complain about getting ripped off, it didnt matter then ,and i dont see where it matters now, wiil the last one off of this crazy planet please turn off the lights
