People do not shy away from giveaway condoms if they are packaged right, Beijing's Municipal Family Planning Commission has found.
When staff handed out free condoms attached to key rings at Zhongshan Park and Xicheng District, they finished the day's quota in 20 minutes, reports Beijing Morning Post.
"We used to persuade people to take free condoms, but now they are coming to us," said one of the staff.
"It looks like a toy," a young woman explaining why she took one.
