I guess in Utah they don’t like comedy with their rubbers?
The state’s Republican Governor Gary Herbert blocked the state health department from distributing condoms with suggestive packaging slogans that were part of a new HIV prevention campaign. The wrappers have labels like … Greatest Sex on Earth … SL, UT [Salt Lake, Utah] … and This is the Place over a drawing of a bed, among others.
Erin Fratto, of the Utah Department of Health’s Prevention Treatment and Care Program, says the new condoms are a way to destigmatize HIV in Utah, and get everybody talking about sexual health.
About 100,000 condoms were to be distributed as part of a federally funded campaign called “The H is for Human” but in Utah the H is clearly for Humorless.

susan collins needs to be voted out and thrown to the curb!
and that tweet - PREACH IT SISTER!
Those condoms . . . LOL!
ReplyDeleteI heard a great interview on NPR while traveling through Utah about the condom situation...As we all know, public health dollars are limited no matter where you live...It's like pulling teeth to increase funding for anything...The individual who spoke on NPR consistently used the term "sex-positive" when addressing the condom debacle-of course that is someone else's opinion...Not only did they have to stop the distribution...But the powers that be wanted the health department to go out a gather the condemns back up...Yes, the slogans are a little cheeky...I am in public health...I say the old adage that when you talk about sex you increase the desire for sex does not hold truth...The statistics does not bear this out...Get a life Utah..Let's be "sex-positive"...Arm the populous with the correct information so that they can make intelligent choices about their sex practices...This is 2020 after all not 1965...

ReplyDeleteLove it!
Bob, I don't know if you ever read my replies to your comments on my own blog (My Best Liked 2019 Films' and the following one) but it seems that today (so far) after SIX weeks of having trouble with first, reading your blog due to being unable to scroll it down, then being unable to scroll it back up, and always until this morning being unable to add my own comments - now at last this morning, for the first time since early Dec, it seems to be back to normal - and I'm overjoyed. Only hoping it's back to stay - though have no idea why in the first place it was uniquely YOUR blog which I couldn't access.
ReplyDeleteNo need to reply to this - I'm just getting the delight I feel out of my system. But if you were ever wondering why I appeared to be so 'silent' in recent weeks, now you know.
Haha That's why you get some of those Carlos comebacks, huh?
ReplyDeleteOk, so I want those condoms! Where can I get them?
And the GOP hypocrisy and corruption knows no end. Every single day we get more proof that they need to be voted out. At this point, they're just IMPOTUS's minions. Nothing more, nothing less.
XOXO
Raybeard, I had the same problem. Weird.
ReplyDeleteAnd I had no desire to see Aladdin but I've suddenly changed my mind! (gotta love a hot mechanic.)
@Raybeard
ReplyDeleteOthers have told me that and I've looked into it, but couldn't figure it out. I'm glad you're back and replying! Makes my day!
@Six
It's never a dull moment around here!
@Sadie
I've never seen Aladdin but I have seen the hot mechanic.
