Saudi Arabia Anti-Impotence Pill Advertisement Complaint (VIDEO)

An advertisement for a mens' anti-impotence pill is causing a stir in Saudi Arabia, as local citizens feel the ad is inappropriate sexual content for public viewing.

The TV ad for a local version of Viagra named Snafi promoted the erectile dysfunction drug for men who have problems with impotence. The ad is rather mild by American standards, showing a man in traditional headdress with his wife and kids in their home.

Then the man slips off with his wife, and the box appears on screen with a message saying it brings "stiffness" for up to 36 hours (which would suggest the pill is similar to Cialis, which lasts the same amount of time as opposed to Viagra which has a shorter time span.) See the video below:

Saudi Arabia television viewers were left stunned when a state broadcaster ran an advertisement for an anti-impotence drug. A box of Snafi, a Viagra-style pill, was shown following a 20-second-long scene involving a family. In the scene, a father, clad in a traditional Middle Eastern headdress, returns home to his wife and children. The husband looks at the children, smiles, and slips away with his wife. Then the slogan 'Snafi - it does the job' appears on the screen with a promise of 'up to 36 hours of stiffness.'
