Trojan advertising under fire
 
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/16/bu...=1&oref=slogin

That's just stupid of the networks... and the Planned Parenthood and AIDS foundation made good points. What do you guys say?

and I think I found the ad: http://youtube.com/watch?v=mgoDjTPyg8M

if that's it... that's just plain stupid for the networks to ban it.

Yeah, I don't see what the big deal is with this commercial. I've certainly seen much worse on television including those idiotic "and twiiiiiiiinsss!!!" Budweiser commercial or the asinine "This is ourrrrrrrrr country..." car commercials. All the dumb commercials are the ones that should be banned.

think of the children!

i'm torn between not caring and kind of feeling upset that all these stations are denying something useful publicity

i feel sorry for all the people having sex without using protection because they don't have exposure

i don't even want to bring religion into this =\

Well, if that was the commercial, it was a very well done commercial.

But I'm sure the local networks are catering to their demographics, so it makes sense that a network in Seattle (mostly liberal) would accept it as compared to a more conservative area such as Pittsburgh.

If someone in the United States hasn't gotten the message about safe sex yet, then that's just ridiculous.

Im pretty sure I saw a similar commercial on TV before, but without the pigs...like the same girl at the bar and the same guy who gets the condom...

not entirely sure though...
