WTF is up with Durex’s new condom ad?

It took me a good five minutes to figure out what was going on with this ad, but from what I can tell, it comes down to this: Men are from Mars, and women love penis.

Let’s suppose these words are supposed to represent each party during the actual act of the blowy. So the woman is contented, satisfied, and happy because she’s going down on someone; and the guy’s brain, normally located inside of the skull, is so focused on the blow job at hand that it can’t function… what is going on here? Is she sucking the knowledge out of him through his most beloved extremity? The whispers of words he wishes he could say? If anyone should be happy, satisfied, and contented, I’d venture to guess it’s the person receiving oral sex. Is she just happy because it’s implied that the Durex condom tastes really good? Because, if so, that bitch needs to eat a steak or something. No condom tastes that good.

I guess this ad is meant to be humorous, but I think it should be recognizing that using condoms for blow jobs isn’t the norm (even though it’s the safe thing to do). And while I’m sure it’s not 100% awesome to suck on a non-flavored condom, I don’t think it’s the women who need the convincing.
