WASHINGTON, DC --- "How can anyone take it seriously when a band like KISS delivers a so-called safe sex message?" asks Bryan Kemper, director of Rock For Life, (an American Life League division). "Their influence is bad enough without adding condoms to the equation."
The rock band KISS has added condoms to the line of merchandise available with the band's name or likeness on it. Following the success of the first KISS condom, the group has released a second. Paul Stanley of KISS was quoted as saying "social responsibility is important to me."
"How is selling condoms to kids socially responsible?" protests Kemper. "The condom is known to have high failure rates in stopping the spread of the HIV virus and other sexually transmitted diseases. If KISS really cared about social responsibility, they'd encourage children to abstain from sex until they are married."
"The fact that KISS also peddles coffins in their line of merchandise," continues Kemper "may be a silent admission that they already know that using a condom is like playing Russian Roulette. People will die."
Rock for Life is a division of American Life League, the nation's largest pro-life educational organization with more than 300,000 supporters. P.O. Box 1350 / Stafford, VA 22555 / www.rockforlife.org
Well, Bryan, no one with more than three working synapses does. The question is: why do you?
hhhhuh, hey baby!
Is that for the kids who commit suicide after listening to the subliminal messages in their music?
I was in my midteens when Kiss arrived on the scene.I was a KISS freak for a while until I started seeing lots of little kids buying their albums,then the fascination wore off.I did have a bizzare dream where they were jamming,then went backstage and took off their wigs and makeup and they were old farts.Now they have this commercial where they have a band that looks like Kiss,does the same thing that was in my dream.The manager says surprised"Hey ,you're not Kiss!"It was about a hotel chain or something.Man,I had that dream 25 or 26 years ago and now they have a simular commercial.It made me remember that dream.Is that strange or what.

Yeah, right. There is no need to make stuff up if there is a legitimate point of criticism.
I doubt it as there are none.
I would have thought so too, then I found Gene Simmons' website. There are hundreds of "ladies in waiting" who have sent their pictures in. I think the Kiss condom would be a winner with them. I'm not sure where the site is, but you should check it out if you can find it.
Only $4700. And yes, it's autographed.
I love KISS. I love dressing up as KISS. My husband is the true die-hard KISS fan. He's the one that recruited me in 1997. Ever since then I have been rocking and rolling and living in up in KISS style. My favorite time to dress up is Halloween. I've chosen Paul and Ace as my alter ego because hubby is the true demon.
Lots of Love,
Rock on,
