BERLIN (Reuters) - German sex educators plan to launch a spray-on condom tailor-made for all sizes.
Jan Vinzenz Krause from the Institute for Condom Consultancy, a Singen-based practice that offers advice on condom use, told Reuters Thursday the product aimed to help people enjoy better and safer sex lives.
"We're trying to develop the perfect condom for men that's suited to every size of penis," he said. "We're very serious."
Krause's team (spraykondom.de) is developing a type of spray can into which the man inserts his penis first. At the push of a button it is then coated in a rubber condom.
"It works by spraying on latex from nozzles on all sides," he said. "We call it the '360 degree procedure' -- once round and from top to bottom. It's a bit like a car wash."
Krause said the plan is to make the product ready for use in about five seconds. He said it would function more effectively as a contraceptive because it would fit better and not slip.
However, before the new condom can be sold in shops, the firm must ensure that the latex is evenly spread when sprayed, as well as optimize the vulcanization process.
Krause hopes the high tech condom, which will be available in different strengths and colors, will on the market by 2008.
He said the spray can would likely cost some 20 euros ($26) as a one-off purchase. The latex cartridges -- sufficient for up to 20 applications -- would cost roughly 10 euros, he said.
Krause said he had hit upon the idea when considering the difficulties some people faced using condoms, and drew inspiration from spray-on plasters now used in medicine.

Condoms do not go on the mouth classy God knows even an extra large one would still not cover your mouth.

Was that the uniform you wore out on the street of San Fran. The one you specificlaly had TAILORED to turn men on. Or was that your spare outfit?

yes, Linda, I have enough enemies, no need to make more here!
I miss the 'Good Ole Days' when we stayed up talking and drinking at an all night to party or when we helped each other quit smoking

lol zoomin...and I used to think the political division then was bad....but compared to how it is now....I do look fondly back on those days.
Others have here have also commented on how 'back then' it was a lot more fun...playful. But see, that's why I think everyone adds to any board. They each bring part of their own personalities here....and posters like you, classic, and a couple of others...keep the threads lighthearted and laughable. Make them less serious.

yes, Mingo, Linda shared a few with us.
Kraftdinner & kiara & even helen would stop in, too, if I remember correctly.
and, of course, many others who no longer frequent the RT.
Sometimes we even shared champagne and balloons
...it was a different world back then.

To get my remark back on topic, I will restate my definition of Pondscum and will
appreciate any other definitions, especially those that were prevalent in the past and also clarification of the definition that was alluded to while I was asleep last night and Hepburn and Enchanted were "thinking."
To all the people in America who have no tolerance for the beliefs
and lifestyles of other people and to all the individuals who believe in the obscenity called a death penality, I hereby define as Pondscum.
May chicken droppings forever define the perimiter of the pond where they live while snakes slither in the grass nearby.

Yep....sure sounds like hellen's definition of 'happy times' to me. LOL LOL LOL
With a LOT of her paranoia entering into to it also.

I did crack up at the comment Spaz made about something like 'Imodium for MOUTHS'. LOL LOL LOL And I was wondering if he was thinking about that in relationship to all hellinoid's statements.
Back then I spent most of my time on the Outlook but did pop in a few times. Later, little did I know that when I gave an honest opinion and said I thought Bush wasn’t that great of a leader it would drive someone crazy because of their intolerance for an opposing view.
Looks to me like Helen was the terror of the board back then? And there are those who are still injured by it .... awwwwww

Hi Helen!
Hi Kiara!
HJW wasn't such a terror ~ did you see the last few posts? Lil bit o {{hug}} action goin on.
Yes, those days were different.
and that was NOT one of my all-time favorite old threads (I was hiding in a corner for most of it).
mingo:We were ALL drinkers. Mostly an overabundance of coffee (it tended to keep us up and chatty all night, hence the late nite party threads). Anyone was welcome to pull up a chair and hydrate. Welcome to sit down & put their feet up to share their day over a refreshing glass of iced tea or whatever beverage they chose to drop their ice in. No passing judgement permitted. No passing gas, either. (the second rule was broken more often than the first).
teeheehee...
aint rose colored glasses grand???
...starting to feel like I should go back to my corner now...
