This just in from Yahoo!'s Oddly Enough news, oddly enough:
SINGAPORE - Young women dressed in skimpy Santa outfits have distributed 50,000 free safe-sex stocking stuffers — condoms — to holiday shoppers in the city-state's glitzy tourism and shopping district.
The sexy Santas from Takaso Marketing, which makes Playsafe condoms, handed out the prophylactics along busy Orchard Road over the pre-Christmas weekend, said the company's general manager, Tonya Tan.
"Our main objective is to educate the public on AIDS (news - web sites) prevention and provide support on practicing safe sex," said Tan.
She wouldn't say how much the company spent on the campaign.
Chocolates and candies were handed out to children, she added. [LINE]Naturally, these blasphemous Singapore Santa's should be sent directly to jail. Disguising a filthy attempt at [b]forcing[/b] people to have sex, as distributing condoms obviously does, in the name of AIDS prevention is misleading and disturbing. I just hope that no one falls into their trap and actually uses the condoms that were handed out. That would be horrible. AIDS, along with everything else, can be prevented much better by simply not having sex, as we all know how horrible sex is. Unless you're married, of course.
And, speaking of marriage, I present to you more evidence as to why marriage is bad: [LINE]DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania (Reuters) - A Tanzanian man killed himself by drinking a chemical used in cattle dips, leaving a suicide note saying it was to escape a nagging wife, police said on Wednesday.
The body of the 32-year-old was found in the commercial capital Dar es Salaam on Sunday with the suicide note and a glass containing traces of the chemical, used for killing insects on livestock, regional police commissioner Alfred Tibaigana told Reuters.
"I've decided to end my life," Tibaigana quoted the suicide note as saying.
"I am fed up with the constant nagging of my first wife."
Police did not have any further details about the man's death in the east African country, where polygamy is common.
