SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom rejected a bill on Sunday that would have made free condoms available to all public high school students, arguing it was too expensive
The bill would have required all public schools that have grades nine through 12 to make condoms available for free to all students. It would have required public schools with grades seven through 12 to allow condoms to be made available as part of educational or public health programs.
And it would have made it illegal for retailers to refuse to sell condoms to youth.
Newsom added that if a certain company were allowed to sell condoms to
schools they would acting like a Trojan Horse and using
the opportunity to promote their brand.
One baker commented that he had hoped he would be
able to sell cakes with condoms for the education of gay students.
He wanted to poke holes in the condoms and use them to
illustrate safe fudge packing.
An unnamed merchant said he’d have been tickled pink to
sell the condoms to schools.
One disappointed would-be condom seller had already
made up slogans to put in the condom packages, kind
of liked fortune cookies. Some of the “fortunes” were as follows:
Before you attack her, wrap your wrapper.
Don’t be silly, protect your willy.
Don’t be a prick, Cover your dick
When in doubt, shroud your spout.
Cover your skin, Before you break her in.
Don’t be a loner, cover your boner.
You can’t go wrong if you shield your dong.
If you’re not going to sack it, go home and whack it.
If you think she’s spunky, cover your monkey.
If you slip between her thighs, be sure to condomize.
She won’t get sick if you wrap your dick. |
