Feminists in Action, LSU’s feminism activist organization, is fundraising through selling “condom-grams” for the Thanksgiving holiday season.
These are little goody bags come stuffed with candies, risqué notes and (most importantly) condoms, both male and female.
With little suggestive statements like “Let me gobble your turkey”, “Can I stuff you?” and even a small poem to keep it classy, these Trojan and Durex filled condom-grams are sure to turn some heads at their sale.

Advocating for sexual health and safer sex practices, FIA will be selling these holiday treats for $1 in Free Speech Alley on Monday, Nov. 20 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Perim Isim, Feminists in Action’s treasurer and head of the Fundraising and Philanthropy Committee, holds a Thanksgiving-themed condom-gram on Thursday, Nov. 9 in Baton Rouge, La.
Between to 10-20% of the profits will go towards their partnership with Planned Parenthood, the rest towards FIA’s fundraising.
“We want people to come out and buy them so we can continue to do fun stuff like this for LSU students,” Lilli Sims, the director for Planned Parenthood Affairs for Feminists in Action.
In the past, FIA has done Valentine’s Day condom-grams, with similar playful innuendos, and regularly pass out free safer sex supplies, making sure LSU students stay strapped with protection.
If Monday is too far away to get your hands on one of these racy holiday treats, run on over to Baton Rouge’s annual White Light Night where they will be selling them with Planned Parenthood on Friday, Nov. 17 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
As titillating and silly as these condom-grams may seem, Sims wants buyers to remember the importance of safe sex practices.
“I believe every LSU students deserves access to sexual health resources. Especially after the overturn of Roe v. Wade, it is so important that I, and FIA as a student organization, encourage our peers to engage in safer sex. That’s why we do this,” Sims said.
