Spanish condom ad shows how easy it is to "sheath" your "sword"



After reading last week's post about a weird Spanish tampon ad, a friend in Spain sent me this:



Initially, I had assumed that the product benefit being shown was some kind of new lube, but thanks to Google Translate I now know that Control is a brand of condoms with an idiot-proof applicator. Apparently, the sheath represents the product being applied rather than ye mediaeval maiden's vagina. (Easy mistake to make, however, when you consider the etymology of the word.) The point being that her knight is sooner ready for her.

Thanks, Rachel, for the tip.

  1. Stupid ad. After watching it, I still don't know exactly how their "idiot proof" applicator works. Compare and contrast with this superb ad, advertising the same thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMriPq9k278
