Now this is the kind of slow-mo instant replay I enjoy. Screw sports. I want to see awkward celeb moments on a loop. At “The Lorax” premiere, Zac Efron dropped a condom as he walked the red carpet. An unfortunate accident? Or was he trying to rub in the fact that he’s getting laid? No need to brag, Zac. No need to brag. But I do wonder who he was planning to use his condom with. Human or Lorax?

The next time a guy complains about wearing a condom, flash him this picture — a condom made in 1860. The reusable condom is one of the more esoteric items found at the Ohio Historical Society’s “Controversy” exhibition. The rather life-like condom was made from either sheep skin or sheep intestine, and was, like many condoms of the time, designed to be reused. So yeah, Trojans don’t look so bad now, do they?
Of all the good reasons to wrap it up, not bringing a bundle of joy into the world who you are ill-prepared to care for is a big one. A Brazilian ad agency took this idea to the extreme by Facebook friending young men with a profile of their fake “baby” with their name followed by “Jr” — like Kevin Federline would have gotten a friend request from Kevin Federline Jr. (And then high-fived his bros.) All the Facebook messages linked back to the web site for Olla Condoms, who sponsored the campaign. Very clever, but very terrifying. [Creativity, Olla.com.br]
A new study found that college guys with higher levels of testosterone (the macho ones!) were more likely to use condoms than their less manly peers. This initially confused researchers because high levels of testosterone are linked to risk-taking. And you’d think that unprotected sex is risky behavior. But no, the young men of today seem to feel that safe sex is the risky move. Why? Because it makes him more popular! Keep reading »
A bag that looks like it’s made out of condom wrappers? Sounds trashy. Oh, but it so, so isn’t. Handbag designer Maggie Kervick has designed a makeup bag, a wristlet and a tote inspired by LifeStyles Skyn condom wrappers and as you can see, they’re pretty glam! It’s not obvious what the words say, either. Each purchase comes with free condoms, too. What’s not to love? [Racked] Keep reading »
Any story of rape, whether it happens to a man, woman or child, is horrific and tragic. This particular story has the distinction of being horrific, tragic and weird: three women in Zimbabwe have been charged with sexually assaulting male hitchhikers and collecting condoms filled with semen. The women had 33 jizz-laden condoms, which police say were acquired during 17 different sexual assaults over the past two years.
So, what the hell is going on? Keep reading »
Is KFC branching out into prophylactics? No, although that would be, um, interesting. This here rubber is just one of the many mock-ups of corporate-sponsored condoms on the kickass Tumblr blog, New Condoms. I’m partial to the M&M’s condom myself! Though I don’t know how dudes will feel about a condom that suggests “It melts in your mouth, not in your hands.” Melt is usually one of those verbs that shouldn’t be used to reference the peen.

In Nanning, China, teens and condoms go together, well, like teens and cell phones. Apparently it’s all the rage for kids to sport cell phones with prophylactic charms. Safety first! The condom accoutrement come in a variety of colors decorated with zodiac, cartoon characters, or cool designs. While it’s great that the message to use a love glove is getting out there, we’re not sure they should actually be using these since condoms are so easily punctured. So, peeps, be sure to use a freshie! [Trendhunter] Keep reading »
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been accused of a whole lot of messy things involving his penis. For shame! But regular dudes can prevent their sex accidents with condoms — specifically, if you have a sense of humor, with this satirical condom line called Dickileaks. Ha! [Trend Hunter] Keep reading »
