Respect Yourself. Protect Yourself.


Advocates for Youth and Sex Etc. have just launched a great campaign contest in response to the increasing anti-sex ed nonsense going on.

Some people are trying to hide the truth about condoms and their effectiveness from young people. Advocates for Youth believes you deserve the straight facts. While abstinence is the only 100% effective way to avoid sexually transmitted infections (STIs), condoms are the most effective prevention tool we have for sexually active people. But, a lot of people are uncomfortable talking about condoms. Enter Advocates’ contest to design a message that will get people talking about condoms. You just might win $500, too!
To get the word out that condoms do protect against HIV and many other sexually transmitted infections–and to have fun, too–we have developed an online creative tool that young people can use in the contest. Contest entrants must be between the ages of 15 and 24. But anyone–of any age–can unleash their creativity and make an innovative, imaginative, provocative, or just plain silly design.

The contest lets you design your very own safe-sex ad like the one above.
And while I’m a couple years past the contest’s age limit, I’m all about anything that lets me procrastinate and play with condoms.
