Condom Cabs All Over NYC Offering Free Rides And Sexual Quizzes
AdAge – The rubber meets the road on Valentine’s Day as a fleet of three Trojan Safe Rides taxis will roam the Greenwich Village and New York University areas offering free rides and quizzes about sexual health. The program from Trojan PR shop Edelman works essentially like “Cash Cab meets condoms,” though Mark Gromosaik, group product manager for the Church & Dwight Co. brand, points out that it’s not affiliated with the Discovery Channel game-show series. It’s part of Trojan’s National Condom Month promotion and very much in the sweet spot timing wise. Nielsen data show the week of Valentine’s Day is when condoms sell best. The cabs, operating from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Feb. 14 and 15, will be driven by limousine drivers selected and trained for good customer-service skills, Mr. Gromosaik said. A Trojan representative will administer the quizzes in each cab, so the drivers won’t be distracted.
I’m not particularly interested in the condom propaganda campaign but for a free cab ride you can quiz me about my dick all you want. You know how much cabs cost these days? Costs like 5 bucks just to get in the door. Its gotten expensive enough that its to the point where I venture back down into the subways with the homeless. So as long as you bring me wherever I want for free, ask all the questions you want. I’ve got a sexual IQ of like 170 anyway. No, girls can’t get pregnant standing up. Yes, the best form of birth control is to have sex in a jacuzzi. No, your sperm is not fertile if you grew up eating yellow Starbursts or drinking Moutain Dew. Yellow number 5. Yes, green M&Ms make girls sexual aroused. Anymore brain busters, Condom Man?
On a serious note its still just utterly preposterous that safe sex advocates are still promoting condoms. Its fucking 2013 and the best they can come up with is strapping a balloon around your dick. How can that be the best they come up with? Keep researching pills and patches and shit. Nobody is suiting their dick up in ziploc bags anymore.
