    They're often on tv and the bed ad is everywhere in the Métro, but it's being changed, it's a woman now on some of them.

    The pic is just a basic ad about beds.

    The 1st vid says AIDS is still here and everyday in France 4 homosexuals find out they're HIV+, the only way to prevent that is to use a condom and the 2nd vid is reminder to get tested before going bareback with your partner.

    That's awesome.

    Especially the first, it's great to see an ad featuring gay guys just...because.

    There's one they play in the theatres here that I like a lot.
    It has variations on the people in it, but both are about gay men and safe sex.

    The version I like best has two incredibly adorable and gorgeous guys having a pillow fight in t-shirts and underwear and then they start wrestling and making out and then one of them grabs a condom.
    Version two, which makes me laugh so hard, is the same thing only with large bearded men instead.

    Hell broke loose when the show "Cold Case" showed two men "kissing" (weak-sauce 2 second thing) in prim-time television, so yea...haha.

    It's true! The second commercial says to get tested before stopping the usage of a condom. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I guess I have to feel lucky about living in Canada, where in most regions homophobic people are the ones regarded badly, not homosexuals! (Regional thing of course...) But, I can't say that I've seen many adds featuring LGBT persons.

    I really want to see ads, tv shows, books, and everything else include LGBT people. But, not as props, just as a necessary part of any work since they represent 3-11% of the population (and most works include at least 20 people)!

    Anyway, those were great adds!

    P.S.: This is my first post, I am new here! So, hello to everyone! =)
