The Sun actually thinks the word "condom" in and of itself is so offensive as to be unprintable? If so, that's exactly the sort of thing that's going to lead to their ultimate demise. Manhattan is not Bumblefart, Mississippi, where the entire town might shun you forever if you're ever caught exclaiming "Oh my God!" instead of "Oh my gosh!" Whether conservative or liberal, we are sophisticated and intelligent and do not need to be shielded from mere words, especially when almost nobody else on the planet thinks the word is profane. I find their patronizing attitude towards their readers more offensive than the ads.
