Rap Against STD – shout out to spread the awareness

Shannon Chow · October 10, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Durex Malaysia recently had an interesting campaign on promoting STD awareness and safe sex known as Rap Against STD, it gives youths like you and me a platform to create a shout-out rap style to make a stand for using condoms. By raising the awareness and educating youths, we are able to help protect fellow youths from contracting STDs and to create the longest collective rap video possible.
What is STD some of you may have heard about it but may not be very familiar on the type of STDs.
STD stands for Sexually Transmitted Diseases. There are various types of STDs. Basically, STDs can be transmitted during intimacy moments between two parties (sexual intercourse, oral sex, anal sex) without using any protection. To learn more about STD, read here.
Did you know?
6.5% of Malaysian teenagers were sexually active in 2010 compared with 2.2% in 2004.
 Adolescents’ knowledge on reproductive health and sexually transmitted diseases are generally low, at between 47% and 59%.

Durex Malaysia besides promoting the campaign of Rap Against STD online via Facebook app, they are going around campus in Malaysia to educate youths!
