When the mood is right but you're all out of condoms, most amorous adventurers would simply run to the 24-hour pharmacy. But in France, the back-up plan seems to be a tad more mundane.

In a series of new anti-AIDS ads from TBWA Paris, the participants in a would-be threeway end up interlocking jigsaw puzzle pieces rather than limbs, and several couples find equally bland ways to spend their naked time together. 

"No condom, no sex" is the tagline for these spots for Aides, the advocacy group behind a wide range of enjoyable videos.

While the premise is rather silly, it's a charming way to tackle a decades-old message that usually feels like a high school lecture.
