According to Gawker, the Occupy Wall Street protest has turned into a veritable sex fest, the likes of which haven’t been seen since Greenstock. (Worse than the sex fest news is of course the disturbing imagery of a man “pooping on a car.” Ummm, good for him?) Better than the news about the sex fest is the news that a condom company is capitalizing on the (probably overblown) story that the Occupy Wall Street protest in New York City is actually a sex fest. 

 

The Condomania condom store now has condoms specifically geared for the Occupy Wall Street protest; the condoms aren’t just ordinary condoms because these condoms come equipped with their very own manifesto, which is exactly what protestors of all ages need when they are bored with the actual protest. 

 

The Condomania condoms are called Occupy Condoms, which is really kind of cute. The manifesto is even cuter and makes an incredibly good pun. Or bad pun, depending on you view puns to begin with. 

 

Here is the Occupy Condoms manifesto in part from the Condomania website: 

 

Occupy Condoms!  Why?  Whether or not you agree with the "demands" of the Occupy Wall Street movement that is sweeping the U.S., one thing is for sure; lots of people out there are tired of feeling screwed. Occupy Condoms say it all in a neat little package while affording young protestors the protection they need to stay safe in the passionate frenzy that is social protest.

 

The Occupy condoms are also being sold by Condomania at a 70% discount; this part doesn’t make sense to me since the condoms were originally created for the protest anyway. How could they be sold for a discount already? Pretty clever, there, Condomania. I’m sure you’ll trick some protesters and some protest sympathizers into.

 

Still, it should be said that it’s great to live in a country where we not only have the freedom to protest (in some places at least), we have the freedom to market merchandise to the protestors in the interest of supporting a good cause. We also have the luxury of living in a country where condoms are readily available and easily obtained, which isn’t the truth in every part of the world. 

 

So, let’s rejoice in Occupy Condoms, my friends. Let’s be happy that the protestors are getting some much-needed action, and let’s be even happier still that the protestors will not be making as many “love children” during the protests. (That is, of course, if they have access to the Condomania store or website because I’m not sure if regular old condoms will work on the tough protestors who are occupying Wall Street.)
