These are the packages.

The accusation is that the wrappers are misogynistic and degrading to women (and men), but aren't all condom packages like that?

I don't understand why we need a thread about this?  I'm not here to learn about condom systems in Boston.

Not unless you believe just using condoms is inherently misogynistic and degrading to women for some odd reason.

Does it matter how a condom is packaged?  Aren't condoms suggestive all by themselves?

Feminists tend to see sexism everywhere, like conservatives with media bias.

As a strong advocate of Beavers' rights, the beaver condom is a gross violation of Beaver Civil Rights.
