I don’t like Condom Advertisements

Some say they’re promoting safe sex. I say they’re promoting SEX itself.

Go fuck someone and use me as protection.

I’m not against the RH Bill about using condoms and contraceptives but I just don’t like on how they promote SEX, safe sex I mean.

There’s a lot of printed ads on the LRT and most of the people who rides the LRT are students… So their target market are students eh?

“well, who else would use them? Old people? Let’s not be blind-sighted here. It’s imminent that the rate of pre-marital sex is increasing,(teen pregnancy, consequentially)  why go against something that might lessen this?  I dont get you people. “

i felt like my argument on my previous reply was lacking. I ran out of characters.

but anyways.

In a way, they ARE promoting sex. It is the PURPOSE of why the product was produced. And yes, they are targetting students which is a more fitting demographic compared to those in older age groups who are already financially stable and are able to provide for a family.  

The point here is. they are also promoting SAFE SEX which for me is better than seeing homeless children on the streets and teenage parents who can’t afford to support them. Now, if that’s your idea of an ideal community, then by all means go against them. 

There’s a right place where to educate students about this and the advertisement looks like they’re encouraging students to have sex and that’s just wrong. Even though Philippines is getting more liberated than before we should still value our Christian Values.

And shouldn’t be condoms are used for family planning and premarital sex? I know that student use it more often but a better approach for this is for family use not for some horny reason.

All I am saying is I don’t like their advertisement or how they showcase their product. because there’s a better way.
