sexually active person<\/a> is more likely to purchase a condom that increases sexual pleasure, and this new invention does precisely that and is less likely to break while you are having sex with your partner than the regular condoms that you have to lubricate on your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWith three years of research and the use of polymer coating and about a thousand different formulations to develop, this new condom can draw moisture from your sexual partner\u2019s self-lubrication on contact, and this binds to the condom coating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lead researcher Mark Grinstaff told the Fast Company that the moisture which is drawn from your sexual partner\u2019s moisture forms \u201ca thin layer of water on the surface which makes it slippery.\u201d He added that \u201cbinds to the surface of the latex condom and does not come off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Grindstaff who is a professor of biomedical engineering and chemistry was a co-author of the study that has been published in the British journal called Royal Society Open Science shared during an interview that: \u201cPreventing the spread of HIV and other diseases are critically important. That really was the driving force for creating new technology here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The study points out that the polymer makes sure that the condom remains lubricated for up to a thousand thrusts, which is way more than what researchers define as typical intercourse which is believed to last between 100 and 500 thrusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike the regular condoms, this newly created condom can retain it\u2019s lubrication when in a large body of water, which means sex in the shower or in a swimming pool will go as smoothly as possible (Good news right?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the moment, this new condom is yet to be tried out by anyone during sex. However, a tough test during the research revealed that a total of 75 per cent of respondents indicated that they preferred the new prophylactic to the regular condoms, and another 85 per cent of respondents thought it was too slippery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stacy Chin, who also co-authored the study and is also the CEO of start-up HydroGlyde Coatings, which hopes to bring the new product to the market in the next two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stacy said: \u201cPoor lubrication encourages condom misusage,\u201d adding that scientists are aware that if they can \u201cimprove comfort for users, we can enable them to wear condoms more consistently and appropriately, preventing STIs and unplanned pregnancies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Grindstaff: \u201cthose in our survey who don\u2019t typically use a condom said they would consider using a condom if it stayed slippery like this.\u201d He included that there is yet to be any significant development in this field for a long time, explaining that the \u201cGlow-in-the-dark condoms and flavoured condoms are clever gimmicks that don\u2019t help performance. I think we can do better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It may sound weird, but it has been discovered that a lot of people wash and reuse condoms, so much so that the government of the United States of America saw the need to warn the general public againt engaging in such a thing earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back in August, the division of STD prevention of the Center for the Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) took to tweeter to disseminate a rather timely warning and reminder regarding the general use of condom saying: \u201cWe say it because people do it: Don\u2019t wash or reuse #condoms! Use a fresh one for each #sex act.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The world of protected sex is about to change with the invention of a self-lubricating condom.
