The head of the Philippines advises not to use condoms : In the World : Vladim

The head of the Philippines Rodrigo Duterte advises compatriots not to use condoms because they do not allow you to fully enjoy sexual pleasure. According to statistics, the country is steadily increasing the number of people living with HIV.

Doctors oppose such recommendations. Rodrigo Duterte explained his position on this issue. According to the President of the Philippines, when a person wants candy, he opens the wrapper and eats only chocolate. This applies to condoms. You cannot eat sweets in a wrapper and made it impossible to enjoy sex using contraceptives. The doctors criticized Duterte. In the state from 2009 to 2016 the number of HIV infections increased from 10 to 60 thousand. According to doctors, the head of the country with similar statistics of the incidence has no moral right to urge his people to ignore condoms.

This is an offshoot of the Christian religion historically has not endorsed the use of contraception, explaining their position on this issue, spiritual reasons.
