6 Things You Never Knew
About Condoms

For a very long time, condoms have been known to be
highly preferred for safe intimacy and sexual
relationship.

However, quite a lot of people do not know some
important things about condoms, how it came about and
some shocking things that surrounds its usage. Here
are 6 things you never knew about condoms.

1. Only 5% Of Men Around The World Wear Condoms
Although it is a general belief that a condom helps in
safe intimacy, it is, however, surprising that only 5% of
men around the world use it. This percentage is really
low considering the goal is 100%.

2. There Are Four Different Kinds Of Condoms
The commonest of all the types of condoms is the latex.
For men with allergies, non-latex condoms are made
from polyurethane. For those who are allergic to both
latex and polyurethane, the third type is made of
polyisoprene. Then there are lambskin condoms, which
are actually made from lamb intestines, not skin. Finally,
you can always pick up female condoms, which function
drastically differently but are still designed to protect
against pregnancy and STIs.

3. Modern Condoms Are Made From Tires
All thanks to Charles Goodyear for the first rubber
vulcanisation process produced in 1855. Ever wondered
why the present-day latex condoms are sometimes
called “rubbers” by people like your grandfather and
carnival barkers? It is because it was produced from
tires.

4. Condoms Basically Have Not Been Redesigned Since
They Were Invented
Since the evolution of the first condom in the 1920s, it
has never been redesigned despite all the advances
made with bumps and ridges. It has been the way it
was first produced.

5. Condoms (On Average) Do Not Really Affect How
Good The Sex Is
For those who think condom affect how good a sexual
experience is, it is a fallacy. Surveys have shown that
couples were just as satisfied with sex whether or not
they used condoms. So considering condoms are 98%
effective at preventing pregnancy and make sex more
safer, “it doesn’t feel good” isn’t an excuse not to use
one.

6. Women Account For Almost Half Of Condom Sales
A popular survey has shown that women buy more
condoms than men. This means the women buy for
their men than men buy for themselves. Women
account for at least 40% of condom sales. Which is
good, because you should pretty much always have
them at hand.
