New V-day condoms for NYC
Today is the first anniversary of the roll out of the NYC condoms. 36 million of the condoms have been distributed in the 5 boroughs since then (way to go NYC) and this Valentine's Day they've come out with a new and bilingual design. The new ad campaign slogan is "Get some." Love it. The spanish slogan is Pontelo, which means put it on.
They even have four different video ads on their site, each one with a different musical genre--including a latin one in Spanish.
Happy V-day everyone.

Full Disclosure: I work for Planned Parenthood :)
I have a friend who works in HIV/AIDS research in NYC. She tells me lifestyles, the brand of the NYC condom, tend to break more than other brands. They are still safe to use, just make sure to use plenty of lube.
The last time I used an NYC condom that was distributed to me, it broke. I was not very happy.
