Moderate Muslim ,   We Con the World   (09.06.10)
Viagra akhbar
2. 36 hours? Sure it is not rigor mortis?
ilan ,   Ariel   (09.06.10)
3. Just a chore !
Shajan ,   India.   (09.06.10)
For them this is just a chore when this should be a spontaneous creative affair with no time bar.
4. on muslim television?!?
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (09.06.10)
that's what makes this 10X funnier. the saudis are sexually-repressed holier-than-thou prudes and i can only imagine the absolute shock and horror this will bring to the 'kingdom'. haha!
5. so what
Jalal ,   Gaza   (09.06.10)
6. 36 hours?
NYC Girl   (09.06.10)
We get inundated with these sorts of commercials here, but If you've ever seen one for any medication used to treat erectile dysfunction, they always tell you that if you have an erection lasting more than 4 hours, you should seek medical attention. So I hate to think what would happen if it were to last for 36 hours.
7. mike, you call having 18 wives...
Persian CAT ,   USA   (09.06.10)
in the "harem", going on "pilgrimage" trips to Europe and Thailand to get some you-know-what, and having sexual imbroglios with boys here and there being "sexually repressed"?!!! What else can you tell us about the "kingdom" that is "repressed"?! How come you know so much about S. Arabian society?
8. With NYC Girl, i bet even Snafi wouldn't "do the job"
Marwan ,   Amman, Jordan   (09.06.10)
not even for 5 minutes
9. #5 - spoken like a real teenager
michael redbourn ,   Arad - Israel   (09.07.10)
Our teenagers say, "so what" and "who cares" etc all the time too. You are in good company ;-) Michael
10. too much is too much...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (09.07.10)

12. Saudis fumed over sex pill ad
Ali Akbar Hussain ,   Anytown, USA   (09.07.10)
So what? I am still fuming at the buildings his countrymen brought down nine years ago. Let him be angry....builds character.
13. No to viagra ads
Duude ,   Oceanside, US   (09.07.10)
I agree. The last thing we need are more Saudi children. If only we could convince them that lifetime chastity was the way of allah.
14. 1 Irmo, that is so adorable, your post!
(09.07.10)
15. snafi
joe macri ,   spanaway, USA   (09.07.10)
36 hours? Is this stuff available in the US?
16. uh
andrew ,   jersey   (09.07.10)
wonder if he needed a doctors note to get out of the suicide bombing
17. Saudis fumed over sex pill ad
David ,   San Diego, USA   (09.07.10)
I agree that the ad should not be on TV, here or anywhere. At least the Saudi ad is less sickly-sweet than the one in America where the couple lies in adjoining bathtubs --- outdoors.
18. women and islam ...
aviG   (09.07.10)
d) Relations between Men and Women. Women are compared to a field, “so seed them as you intend” (2:223). Men may marry four women (4:3); men have more rights regarding divorce (2:226-8); man's inheritance is a portion of two females (4:11); men are in charge of women, and are permitted to beat their wives, admonish and banish them. Women must be obedient to their husbands (4:34), being natural object of sex (7:81; 27:55; 29:29). Other issues are "Honor killing" and genital mutilation.
19. 12 hours per wife == 36 hours
religion of peace ,   jeddah   (09.07.10)
After I get the sand out of my crotch, it's time for chores
20. This ad is 4 years old!
Taylor ,   Bakersfield USA   (09.07.10)
This ad is at least 4 years old... Why is it only getting attention now?
21. Please NOT 36 hours of stiffness
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (09.07.10)
I don't know about any of the other guys out there, I don't want to walk around for 36 hours with stiffness. How would I pee, ouch!!
22. snafi
cialvi ,   st louis   (09.07.10)
Why such stiff opposition ?
23. Sex pill
NC Cracker ,   Shallotte NC USA   (09.07.10)
I am sure the family goat will be a happy camper
24. Aye Yi Yi Yi
Machi al Velli ,   Bin ibn Binbin   (09.07.10)
There is only one solution for this utter transgression, and that is to begin screaming and ululating and thumping chests, and then t o begin hacking arms and limbs and heads and other bits and pieces off the bodies off anyone within the range of any swords or other sharp objects in your possession, of course starting with the women and children first. After all, Allah created all of His children equally, and surely must approve of any one of his children doing this to any other, simply because any one of his children saw fit to interpret Allah's mind for his own personal vendettas. So keep at it, fellahs! What's another century or fifteen of this obviously rewarding behavior, while the rest of civilization prefers continued improvement and development of the human being in honor of Allah, rather than destruction of Allah's children and gifts to us on Earth? Nice going, lads, keep at it, let's see how many more centuries it takes you all to wake up! '72 virgins', my backside!
25. Small condoms needed?
Mike Townsend ,   FL, USA   (09.07.10)
Isn't Saudi Arabia one of those countries that are also crying and complaining about the "standard size" of condoms and where Saudi's view them as too big?
26. commercial
Eyeball ,   Texas   (09.07.10)
Yall need to loosen up over there is Saudiland.
27. Bob Bin Smiling
Alan ,   Harvest, US   (09.07.10)
So...... Why is there Latin guitar playing in the background? Has Juan Valdez been there first?
28. 36 hours?
H. Johnson ,   Washington, USA   (09.07.10)
If you have an erection that lasts more than 4 hours...see a doctor...and call Guiness Book of Records...36 hours have it bronzed.
29. Wish we were that discerning
John ,   Northampton, USA   (09.07.10)
I can't watch a freaking sporting event without every third commercial being some sort of penis advertisement. Viagra, Smiling Bob, Cialis, Extenze... It's ridiculous. I'm embarassed to watch tv with the family. But you can be sure that if there were advertisements for pill that make your breasts bigger and your vagina smaller, they'd be yanked off the air in two seconds.
30. This is Awsome
Happy one ,   USA   (09.07.10)
This is one of the funniest things I have seen in some time. I hope this offends every single person in the middle east.
