In the world of advertising, there's a contentious debate over the portrayal of gender and privacy products. Amidst concerns of crossing societal boundaries, the industry faces the challenge of crafting ads that are both compelling and socially respectful. This paper focuses on the case of Durex, a leading gender brand, and explores its advertising strategy, particularly through new media channels. Based on the state of new media, Durex's advertising strategy is notable for its clear brand positioning. Its social media accounts predominantly showcase advertising posters and videos of its products, employing the Feature-Advantages-Benefits-Evidence (FABE) marketing strategy. This approach efficiently informs consumers about the brand's offerings, succinctly conveying product information and successfully eliciting purchase intentions. It is worth noting that the brand also contains a large number of content related to sex education, aiming to promote healthy sexual concepts and sex education, to a certain extent to fill the fundamental problem of low sales of sexual intimate products due to the lack of sex education.
