Funny, freaky, fetish finds for Friday

This weeks topic is condoms, the humble condom has come of age.
Male condoms are usually packaged inside a foil wrapper, in a rolled-up form,
and are designed to be applied to the tip of the penis and then rolled over the
erect penis. They are most commonly made from latex, but are also available
in other materials. As a method of contraception, condoms have the advantage

of being easy to use, having few side-effects, and of offering protection against
sexually transmitted diseases. With proper knowledge and application technique
- and use at every act of intercourse - condom users experience a 2% per-year
pregnancy rate. Condoms may be combined with other forms of contraception
(such as spermicide) for greater protection,

but having said the above, how would you feel about a spray on condom in a can, that's right a can, apparently some one thought we needed it !!!! I laughed when read this article but then found myself thinking about it all day, if this ‘spay on condom’ was in a large sized ‘economy priced can and sold as a separate product you could use it for mummification. Could you imagine the implications of such a product, you wrap and then spray for that all over body tightening experience, un owed subbies could self explore the pleasures of mummification. Anal toys just give them a quick spray, for that easy to clean surface. ‘oh no, I forgot my latex gloves” here have a can of spray on condom. !!!! The uses make the mind boggle, maybe it’s not such a bad idea after all. I don’t think I would trust it as a means of contraception, or against sexually transmitted diseases, but as a ‘play aide’ I think it could be a cool addition.

Some couples find that putting on a male condom interrupts sex, although others incorporate condom application as part of their foreplay. Some men and women find the physical barrier of a condom dulls sensation. Advantages of dulled sensation can include prolonged erection and delayed ejaculation (so they do have there uses) .There are also condoms available that are lubricated with a very small amount of Benzocaine (usually under 4%). The use of Benzocaine with the lubrication on the inside of the condom produces a slight numbing sensation for the man and is meant to help him prolong sexual activity before climax
While the disadvantage might reach a loss of the erection, a company of bright little sparks has fixed that pesky little problem with an applicator. Again my naughty mind did a back flip, one thing I hate when playing with an unknown partner is getting the substance of prelubed condoms on my opera gloves, as it stains and leaves white marks.

Latex condoms are the most distributed type of condom in the world and there are thousands of variants in regards to size, thickness, and texture. The most popular variants of the standard condom are condoms with a ribbed or studded texture, those that come in different colors or scents, and those marketed as larger sized condoms, so how about getting your condoms tailor made. Are you that big (or small) that there would be a need for such a product.
But they have also covered this dilemma too.

Uselesss condom facts but interesting none the least

Ireland
In Ireland, condoms (and other contraceptives) were originally available only to those with a doctor's prescription (finding a doctor willing to prescribe them was very difficult - almost impossible if one was unmarried) or via the black market (usually smuggled from Northern Ireland). This was later altered to being available only to those over the age of 18 in pharmacies in 1985. Sale outside of pharmacies was only legalized in 1993, although stores such as the Virgin Megastore had in fact been selling them openly since 1988. The age limitations were also removed in 1993.

Philippines
The Philippines is a predominantly Roman Catholic nation, and the Catholic Church is a powerful force in Philippine politics. The Church teaches that only natural family planning methods are moral ways to prevent pregnancy, and opposes promotion of condoms for any purpose.
While condoms are legal in the Philippines, the government will not promote them or pay for their distribution. As of 2004, several local officials - including the mayor of Manila - had banned distribution of condoms in government health facilities, and some locations even ban government health workers from discussing condoms.

Somalia
In 2003, a powerful Somalian Muslim group banned selling or using condoms in Somalia. The punishments for violating this include flogging. (and not the good type of flogging I might add)

Iran
Condoms were never banned in Iran although their public sale was frowned upon after the Islamic revolution of 1979. Despite being an Islamic theocracy, faced with a boom in the population after the revolution, government has quietly encouraged and supported the use and sale of condoms in the country in the past decade. They can now be legally obtained and in fact Iran has one of the largest condom factories in the Middle East.

In North America condoms are also commonly known as prophylactics or rubbers. In Britain they may be called French letters.
Condoms may also be referred to using the manufacturer's name e.g. Durex. In India they are called Nirodh, a government-promoted brand, or KS (after a condom brand name KamaSutra).
Among the Indian Gay and Transsexual Community, condoms are often referred to as "Chocolates", as they are distributed widely for AIDS prevention. Among Indian Muslims it is popularly known as "Parda" (veil or a curtain in Urdu). In the Philippines, they are called "CD's" for the intentionally ambiguous effect (when confused with Compact Discs that are also called CD's). They are also called "kapote" (Filipino term for raincoat).
In Brazil a common phrase for the word condom is "camisinha" or small jumper
