When is a condom not really a condom?
When it's a condomless condom! The Condom Consultancy in Germany invented the condomless condom that is made of liquid latex pumped onto a penis and then dried for 20-25 seconds. It rolls off like a condom — and, hopefully, prevents disease and pregnancy like a condom, too!
From DailyMail.UK:
Inventor Jan Vinzenz Krause said it is better than the
one-size-fits-all versions on sale in shops.
"We thought why not come up with a condom that fits the man
rather than vice versa? This would represent a revolution in the
condom market," said Krause.
He has filed for a patent for the latex spraying system he
invented. "As far as I know our idea is unique," said Krause.
He admits he will have to overcome some legal hurdles and
technical niggles before he can bring the product to market, but he
already has a working prototype and says the system can cater for
most sizes.
"With our technology we could spray a condom on an erect
elephant," he declared, not without a hint of pride.
Men who tested the prototype were split in their reactions.
"Some said it's a great idea and would help them because they
can't find conventional condoms that fit them," Mr Krause said.
"Others say they can't imagine it working in practice. There's
the romance factor: applying the condom does interfere with the sex
act."
The spray-on condom will be more expensive than conventional
ones. The chamber will cost around £17 and the liquid latex
refills, which produce between 10 and 20 condoms depending on size,
will be priced at between £5 to £7.
So, what do you guys think? Would you spend roughly $35 for the chamber (such a strange name) and an additional $10-$14 per condom??
