My first thought was, "I can't believe this hasn't been widely done already." The messages may seem trite, but it's not like a lengthy dissertation on the role of power imbalances and sociological bases for subjugation of females in acquaintance rape would be feasible.
Propaganda works. I don't see any downside - let's pretend kids laugh or whatever. They were at least exposed to the message - that's more than what was happening before, and at low cost (both dollar and energy/investment) and high contact.
