On in a jiffy

It’s the evening of your first date, and you wonder why you’re sweating so much. She walks into the restaurant looking like a million bucks, and you stand up awkwardly to greet her, almost knocking over the table.

Candles, wine and good conversation are the order of the evening, and you leave her at her door with little more than a quick, awkward hug.

You wait two days, and then phone her before 11 a.m. (because your best mate told you that two days after the first date at 11 a.m. is the best time to phone her). You’re pleased to hear that she had a great evening, and that she really wanted to phone you, but was too ‘shy’, reminding you of how cute she really is.

A second date is inevitable, this time at her favourite bar (because your best mate told you the second date must be had in a place with which she’s totally comfortable. ‘Trust me dude,’ he says, ‘chicks love a considerate guy!’)

After a couple of shots, you move on over to the pool table, where you let her beat you twice, and tell some stupid jokes that actually make her laugh. There’s chemistry, communication, and she’s hot enough to melt butter.

Sealing the deal
Eventually, you’re both ready to take your relationship to the next level. You find yourself in your bedroom, clothes coming off left, right and centre.

She’s all over you, and you fumble into your bedside drawer for a condom. You grab a hold of the lampshade, your alarm clock, and eventually find it. She’s slightly agitated by your shuffling, but gets off you to give you time to put the condom on.

Your hands are shaking as you try to tear open the packaging, which is resiliently strong. Eventually, you use your teeth to rip it open, dropping the condom on your lap. She blows the hair out of her face, waiting patiently.

You try to put it on, but in the dark you’ve got it the wrong way around. You’ve also managed to trap some air in the teat, and suddenly realise you’re going to have to start again. You say sorry, and reach for another condom. She’s crossed her arms, and covered herself, and things are not looking good – the passion is dying.

A condom revolution
This is a scenario many unfortunate guys have lived through, probably more than once. While condoms are an essential part of modern sexual lifestyle, getting them on can sometimes take longer than necessary.

This passion-killing issue has prompted a Stellenbosch-based inventor to come up with an ingenious design that could potentially eliminate tedious condom pit-stops in bed – a condom that can be put on in under 5 seconds.

The video speaks for itself:

Quick and easy protection
This new design means that there is little to no handling of the condom before application, and also ensures a perfect fit every time. This new technology is a positive step forward for contraception, and the prevention of HIV/Aids and other sexually transmitted diseases. Now it’s quicker and easier to get protected.

There’s nothing special about the condom itself, and like other condoms, it offers up to 90% protection against STI’s. It’s the way you put it on that’s the difference. If you’ve mastered the art of ‘rolling’, then you don’t necessarily need this product, but if you struggle slightly with the rubber, you might want to look at switching to this brand.
