Stop advertising condoms on TV

Stop advertising condoms on TV

From Pelita

As a housewife, I do not agree with advertising condoms on
television, particularly one commercial showing women in a red-
light district as potential condom users.

I wonder why condoms are being intensively advertised on TV.
Condom producers obviously advertise to boost sales.

Rather than showing the use of condoms in a red-light
district, it would be better to present a religious figure or a
venereal disease specialist and let him/her give advise on this
matter.

I'm saddened to see one commercial for condoms with an artist
promoting condoms. I lack any affinity toward him because he
chooses to sing along with condoms rather than caution against
promiscuous sex through religious teachings.

As we all do not want to see the young generation practice
promiscuousness with the use of condoms, the best way is to stop
airing commercials about this contraceptive.
