The phrase “There is no sex” in the USSR ”and remembered to everyone, but its author can still be forgiven. The ignorant woman who said this during the teleconference with America simply did not understand what the word “sex” means, considering it a synonym for the universal bourgeois debauchery, which in the Soviet Union really was not yet at that time. But it sounded very fun, therefore it was remembered and became almost a saying.

After 20 years, posters appeared on Moscow streets and metro, vividly recalling long -standing aphorism: “There is no safe sex!”
It is impossible to pass by this. Having interested, he made certificates. It turned out that this is the Moscow City Duma and the metropolitan government are struggling with AIDS. In general, you can’t say from the picture. On the black background, two people are depicted, let's call them like that. At a careful consideration, you notice that their faces are exactly the same, they can be taken, if not for twins, then for close relatives. But these are lovers. One in a female outfit, the other in a male. The outfits are worthy. The name Lacher is better than others. A stunted body, barely covered with frank rags, and a skinny drunk face. The gentleman puts it like a pop artist, or as a pimp-in a Hawaiian shirt, a red jacket; And with a powerful ring on the finger. However, some passers -by, slowing down and carefully looking at the poster guy, suspected of a representative of a sexual minority in him, which made the composition of the composition even more. Well, they complemented the picture in addition to the aforementioned slogan about the absence of safe sex of the word about the need to store fidelity to a loved one as a better way to protect themselves from AIDS.
Hmm ... about social advertising, I never had illusions. More idiotic, wretched, useless texts in the city cannot be found. But basically they are just just colorless, although spending consumables, the place and work of those who print and hang them. But this thing - there is already something to talk about.
The fight against AIDS is an urgent matter. Maintaining the moral principles of citizens is a valuable thing. That's just these two different things! Not mutually exclusive and not opposite are simply different. Theoretically, probably, correctly, so that every person once and for all remained faithful once and for all the chosen sexual partner. But this never happened and will not be, simply by virtue of human nature. It is impossible to change this. You can fight for morality, increase it and promote it, but why should you also fight with condoms? Namely, this is actually engaged in the Department of Health of the Government and the Commission on Healthcare of the City Duma.
The inspirer of the project Lyudmila Stebenkova so directly says that calls to use condoms are inspired by companies producing them, but in fact they do not protect against any diseases. And only fidelity and abstinence will protect.
Yes, the authors and developers, as well as deputies and ministers, will not be offended by me, but for most of them sex is a long -purely theoretical issue, so they should not have said about what they do not understand. Including do not understand the psychology of young people, believing that, having hung a similar horseradish with a carrot in the city, they will reach something except the waste of money of taxpayers. Not a single young man is such a poster, and indeed any poster of a similar content, will not convince anything! Fidelity to a loved one is an internal need that arises certainly not under the influence of visual agitation. But what will definitely arise under its influence is confusion.
It is no secret that in Russia a catastrophic situation with sexually transmitted and other sexual diseases. Hormones play, organisms are developing, everyone wants to try faster, and even better - more, and few in these years are able to think sensibly on these topics. And the ideas about contraception, and not only in the youth environment, are at a monstrous level. Forgive you, but citizens and citizens often do not really know this condom and do not know how! And many really do not like to use them. And although the advertising that calls for all the same is also quite banal, but in this case it is better at least such a reminder than no. Perhaps someone will really follow a good advice.
But there is a poster that says that there is no sense from condoms, it turns out, and there is no! This is also pure psychology. When adults are really useful for something, they call for something, insist on something-young people subconsciously begin to resist this. But if suddenly even adults say that “all this is garbage,” then the teenagers will become even more than the same. And those who doubted whether to use or not, seeing a poster signed by the government of the city and its Duma - that is, there will be nowhere more formal - they will cease to be protected at all. After all, it actually blessed and allowed the authorities!
You do not forget, among other things, that in Russia a record statistics of abortion for Europe, including in adolescence. Well, he will be faithful to one partner, and the partner as a result of this fidelity suddenly turns out to be “in position”. And what to do?
And about a 100 % guarantee - this is true. The condom does not give it. Because nothing and from anything can protect us one hundred percent. But one hundred percent cannot be protected - maybe. And all the branches of the capital's power managed to jointly create an art (supposedly) work unique in its uselessness.
