Russian Ad Watch: Silly gay safe sex commercials.

(via) Russia is of course a terribly homophobic country, though, I've got news for you, virile Vladimir: Commie homos are surreptitiously spanking it to all your hot shirtless pics. Anyway, above are two fairly new spots via LaSky, an HIV/STD prevention non-profit. They're both goofy and unsubtle—the hockey helmet one is especially cringe-inducing. But this is Russia, so anything is better than nothing. And how many times have we seen gays embracing in a bedroom in an American PSA? I hope the actors haven't been assaulted. Previous Russian PSAs:
• Anti-abortion posters.
• Kids tell you why they can't quit smoking.
• School boys eating feces in anti-drug spot.
• and the famous psychotic alcoholic talking squirrel.
