life as slow as it gets

Posted by slowcatchupkuan On February - 13 - 2008

Apparently, purchasing condom will cause a hell load of embarrassment. I have no idea why. Heck, it’s not like sexual intercourse is a dirty act that we should be ashamed of if of course we are of legal age… uhm… let’s leave the Dr.Chua Soi Lek and Edison Chen’s abalone eating scandal alone already alright? If it is, then couples with kids should wear trench coat and dark sunglasses when going out lor. Hell, the more kids they have the more they should avoid the public is it? *wakaka!

Funky Impression

I saw this Love-Box in Watson quite sometime ago. At first i thought this tin box was a new brand of candy. I saw it again yesterday and couldn’t resist getting one myself.

Invented and designed in Copenhagen Denmark, it comes with 3 sets of 24 sleek box designs (Funky Impression – super thin, Energetic Sensation – ribbed and Urban Freedom – extra thick). The project’s main objective is to break the taboo.

Our vision is to make it socially acceptable to purchase condoms without the associated embarrassment of buying and carrying condoms.

Love-Box is made to be a fashion item where the designs change seasonally. Every Love-Box is a small piece of art that you can carry around as a gentle reminder on a careful and responsible behaviour towards sex.

Our intention is to create a condom packaging that is prestigious, rather than embarrassing, to buy. Show it off or keep it in your bag,purse or drawer. Love-Box are small and sleek packages – making it easy and safe to carry with you anytime, anywhere.

Our goal is to create a universe without taboo, full of tips on how to enjoy the exciting world of dating.

Love-Box supports organizations that focus on improving knowledge ofcontraception and safe sex.

Super thin condom – comes with 3 in a box

Personally, i don’t get the concept. Besides the great cool packaging design which caught my attention i don’t think it helps much in the face-saving department. A condom is still a condom. No matter how fancy the packaging is. If a person is so malu and shy to purchase condom from the pharmacy or anywhere else then what makes purchasing this brand of condom acceptable? It’s the same cashier you’re making payment to right?

Cashier: Beli ini? (Buy this?) *while pointing to the Love-Box
EatAllYouCanShung: Ya. Nak simpan kotak tu aje. Cantik kotak tu. (Yup. Just to keep the box. Nice packaging)
Cashier: Ohhhh… ahem… untuk kotak ye? Hehehehe (Ohhh… ahem… just for the box is it? Hehehehe) *grinning from cheek to cheek.
Me: -_-”… Cannot meh…


Ps:// The Love-Box is almost sold out at more Watson stores. Grab it while you can… just for the box lar… not for Valentine’s Day use ok…

  22. Jesper says:

    Nevertheless.. Some girls find it more acceptable to have a box marked “love” in their purse, than a packet of condoms. Really, it’s rubbish, but also reality! The condoms energetic sensations is definately worth trying. Do it!
