I bet you haven’t seen this many dickheads all in one place, ever! Anyway. These AIDS prevention ads (“Just protect yourself”) recently won a bronze medal at the Cannes Lions 2008, an international advertising festival. The style and quality of the illustrations are wonderful. I wonder if people find these very “French”?

The message in these illustrations are to promote the use of Body Substance Isolation / Condoms to protect yourself and others against the transmission of STDs. Essentially it’s showing Sex Organs(penis) as monsters, like a giant octopus, lol which it can potentially be deadly, because you can’t always know what people have.
