This PSA is breathtakingly awful. The voiceover makes it sound like they're advertising a horror movie. And don't let facts get in the way - HPV causes anal cancer, not HIV. It's embarrassing to think a health department thought this was a good idea and actually spent a lot of money to create it. Every community deserves better than cheap scare tactics. Real prevention is thoughtful and compassionate. This is more demonizing, stigmatizing crap from people who obviously hate gay and bisexual men.
That ad is a horrible idea! Talk about fear mongering. I see a huge increase in stigma and discrimination against gay/bi men and those with HIV/AIDS. A good PSA would focus on testing, disclosure, safer sex, etc. Not demonizing the potential complications those of us with HIV experience to attempt to frighten others into doing better at not getting it.
