okay why do people get mad at you for doing the right thing, like its better that u use them than the consequences of not using them, but the cashier sounds like she was trying to be polite and make like an awkward conversation but it failed

My friends mom went through her room and found weed and condoms. Didn’t get mad about the weed but grounded her for having protected sex 😬

Cause from her perspective he's still doing the wrong thing: having sex.
She's a fucking cashier though. She should just keep her mouth shut about it.

Walgreens has a pretty explicit policy that states you NEVER make comments referring to a personal hygiene/sexual item. Not that you should be chatting it up over their general merchandise, but especially not these types of items.

Dude my fiancé’s mom called her a slut and attacked her for having the pamphlets for protection. We were in our 20’s. Moved her the fuck out of that. She didn’t know it was already applicated and not just researched.

Because they refuse to accept that framing. Their only acceptable solution is for you to just be abstinent.

DNE, I agree with you wholeheartedly. It's incredibly stupid that when people are trying to have safe sex, they get judged.

Might be a religious thing.
Sex-ed in the States is still lagging behind in some areas where religious types have tried submitting abstinence only.

A lot of people actually believe that you shouldn't be allowed to have sex until you're 18 under any circumstances.

Because people are nasty, mean spirited, judgmental assholes who think about things less than a teenager thinking ahead to buy condoms.

The need to force others to adhere to the rules you observed throughout your life is a fundamental conservative value.
Many of their hang ups exist solely to satisfy this need.
Gay people can’t be gay because I wasn’t allowed to be gay. Even if i didn’t want to it doesn’t matter.
There are only two genders because I wasn’t allowed to be the other gender if I wanted so neither should you.
I didn’t have sex out of wedlock so neither can you.
This can go on day after day. It doesn’t matter how broken the rule is, if they have lived their lives under that rule they won’t accept challenges to it.
It’s a cycle. We will be guilty of it once something new pops up. Sure we may have challenged for gender equality, sex positivity, body positivity climate change etc, but if were 46 and we’ve spent our entire life living mostly monogamously and the new generation starts challenging for widespread polygamy and polyamory, a fair share of us are going to insist that society stay largely monogamous.

Right? My dad yelled at me for throwing used condoms in the trash. Okay dad, would you rather me be having safe sex or help me raise a child?

Of course he was doing the right thing---but there is a big chunk of people who profess to be guardians of pre-birth life, and anti sex except under the conditions they approve, and are so self righteous they feel entitled to force their views on everyone. Personally, I would just ask to see the manager, and copy down her name if she is wearing a name tag. If she refuses the request for names, hit google and other media sources to get them, and then write a full, civil, letter of complaint. Do not make threats, just move affirmatively toward legal action.

People are jealous that the customer is getting some when they're stuck at the till all day. Gotta bring everyone down to feel good about themselves.
