Good stuff.
There was a post on egno...100% Matteo.<br />Good stuff. <br />There was a post on egnorance about this subject and I wrote this little tid-bit on there. <br />I think you might just dig it:<br /><br /><i>"I was just talking about this contraceptives idea with my adult son.<br /><br />He made a rather a series interesting points regarding their use. To understand his ideas, you have to understand we live in Ontario where the government labels cigarettes and even some liquor with warnings. <br /><br />LIKE THESE<br /><br />First he noted they are allowed to be legally purchased by people below the age of legal consent (16 here in Ontario). He compared this to selling booze or smokes to under age kids (19 here in Ontario). He further wondered why they condoms are not required, as with cigarettes, to be labelled with disclaimers and warnings. Why, for example, do they not have a white box proclaiming 'Promiscuous sex can lead to loneliness, and DEATH', or 'Promiscuity kills your partner too!', or a picture of children with plaintiff stares that with the text 'Please don't cheat on us Daddy'?<br /><br />He added (I am paraphrasing here) 'Okay, maybe the sex itself is not like a cigarette, but the condom is analogous to the filter - the butt.'<br /><br />This idea he backed, very astutely, by saying NOT warning people of these potential dangers on a condom is akin to taking the warnings of filtered cigarette packages, or selling fancy cigarette filters with no warnings about smoking on them."</i>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14739783974158130525noreply@blogger.com
