What's The Significance!?

OK, I have seen this commercial for Trojan condoms many times, but every time I watch it, I am left wondering the significance between some dirty pigs, pretty women, and latex condoms. Perhaps it is another meaningless commercial that is supposed to be entertained while carrying an underlying message. Hmmm... If you know or if you have an idea, please share, because even as a man, I have no idea.

13 Who Said What?:

WOW! The only thing I got from this is that men should use condoms so that you won't be a pig!(LOL) I know that sounds stupid, but I don't get it either.

The Bee is out!

It says don't be a nasty, filthy, unclean pig. Wrap it up and you'll live longer.

Tayo said...

All the men in the bar are "pigs", cause they're trying to get some, but don't have condoms, so they're getting no play from the ladies.

So the main pig gets a condom, becomes a man, and is automatically more desirable by the lady he's talking to (and presumably gets some that night - with the Trojan condom, of course).

So... yeah. I think it's kinda cute, but it's not my favorite ad...

Men are pigs, and be more evolved and considerate. Don't give into your animal lust with the way you treat women, and the way you have sex.

I think everyone else explained it well.

I love all the subtle pig-like implications... As the girl walks by the dudes and they all stare at her shamelessly and elbowing each other in a very obvious manner (she is thinking ugh! pigs!) Then there is piggy that is on a date with a young lady. That one checks out the same girl that the other pigs were hootin about and on top of that he was talking on his cell phone (his date looks at him like ugh PIG). The next piggy is going on and on about something lame and boring (his date is like ugh lame PIG)! The next pig is trying to start a fire without a match with a little kiss kiss (his date is like UGH 50 feet PIG). And the last pig...ahhh... really now, a little overzealous shall we say?? lol

I really appreciate everyone's interpretation of the commercial, especially Tayo's, as I feel she offered an interpretation that was definitely on the money.

I agree w/ Mrs. Grapevine! It is a weird commercial though.

idk... said...

yup I think Tayo was on point with the interpretation there!

Quick said...

...i guess we are not gentlemen unless we strap up. lol-

Jackie Edwards said...

Ditto what Tayo said....I think she got it right! It's still kinda funny though. Who sits there and thinks of these things? I guess that's why I'm not in advertising.

Um... Trojan condoms turn pigs into gay guys that want to have a great conversion with a good looking girl?

LOL!
