Does Sex Necessarily Sell AIDS & HIV Awareness?

Calendrier aids awareness 2010 calendar 7

Last week, we featured a few images from a World Wildlife Fund campaign. The series attempted to raise awareness on environmental issues by having naked models pose as wild animals. The message wasn't lost on us, but we could see how some people wouldn't get what a bunch of hot naked people have to do with saving chimpanzees.

Now, we don't know much about the image above, but it apparently comes from a 2010 calendar that has intentions of raising awareness on HIV and AIDS. Although the models are mostly naked and super hot, I'm not exactly seeing the message here. Perhaps sales of the calendar go towards research or health initiatives? Does anyone know what's up with this?

  1. The calendar is put out by Etudiants Contre Le SIDA (Students Against AIDS), a group apparently aimed at educating young people about HIV/AIDS, STDs, and safer sex practices.
    According to their site, the theme of the calendar is, “In Bed With,” because that’s where safer sex practices do or don’t occur.
    On a side note…
    Bonjour, Monsieur Juin! Le woof!

  2. All the portraits seems 2 represent a classic type of life styles and often People seem 3 forget that AIDS/HIV does not care about your station n life it does not discriminate ( perhaps one of the few things in life that doesn’t ).
