A user asks: CSD500 AKA “The Viagra Condom”: Will it increase safe sex?

 

                                             

Durex plans to license CSD500 from the British biotech firm Futura Medical with hopes of bringing it to the market in about a year.

Although the CSD500 condom has been called “The Viagra Condom” it actually is not designed for men who have erectile dysfunction. It’s designed for men who have trouble staying erect due to the lack of (sensitivity/feeling) that often accompanies wearing a condom. These condoms are lined with a vasodilating gel for the purpose of helping men maintain their erections.
Theoretically there is now one less excuse for not wearing a condom.

Do you believe these new condoms will encourage more couples to practice safe sex?
