Apparently Durex Condoms isn't on Mitt Romney's side either; capitalizing on the attention given to the US election in China, the brand recently released an ad featuring the first lady Michelle Obama holding her hands shoulder width apart. Below her is Ann Romney with one hand raised in a pinching motion and her index and thumb almost touching.
The Durex Condoms ad is called "The Bigger Man" and was only released in China. It popped up on Chinese social networking site Weibo.com and is alluding to the size of Obama and Romney's manly parts.
It's safe to assume this ad from Durex Condoms won't be appearing in any publications in the North America.
