Men are SUCH pigs!



Okay so I am sure all you ladies out there have all have called men pigs atleast once in your lives.  Which brings me to my next comercial we will be discussing!  The trojan condom add where 
all the men in the bar are pigs.  I love this commercial because when i go into a bar and look around, honestly i see almost every man in there as a drooling pig!  I think as far as making all the men look like pigs because they didnt have condoms on them was an over all good idea.  It drills into womens heads that men that dont wear condoms are pigs and tells men that woman think they are pigs if they dont wear one.  However, I do not like the fact that a man turns from pig to a man when he purcasses a condom from the bathroom.  Yes i think that all men should wear condoms when having sex.  But just because a man wears a condom does NOT mean he is not a pig!  I think the over all message of the commercial was good... "evolve... use a condom  everytime".  Just remember... even "pigs" wear condoms!

I really liked this commercial too. As a woman, I thought the use of men as pigs was funny, but I can see how the commercial could offend a man by portraying them as pigs in the commercial. However, I think it is a clever way to say don't be a pig, be a real man and use a condom, which is where the tagline "evolve" comes in.

I liked this commercial only because I think is served the purpose of showing everyone that men should wear condoms. I think the responsibility is usually put on women too and for the man to go get the condom in the commercial was a smart move as well. For the fact that the pigs turn into to men after obtaining the condom, well they may still be a pig but at least you are going to be sleeping with a safe pig.
