Only 5% of men all over the world wear a condom. Keep in mind that these are data from different countries, where access to contraception can be very difficult. Nevertheless, 5% is really small, very few. Especially considering that the modern world is aiming for 100%.

There are 4 different types of condoms. In our time, shells of the tortoise and fabric covers, which served as a barrier method of contraception in antiquity, are no longer in such demand, but this is for the best. Most condoms are made from latex, but there are also non-latex products for those who suffer from allergies. There are those that are made of polyisoprene - they are used by people who are not lucky enough to have allergies to both latex and polyurethane. There are also condoms made from the lamb's intestines - true, their popularity is also in doubt. Finally, there are female condoms that function a little differently than men's, but still serve as a protection against pregnancy and STDs.

For the invention of a condom is to thank tire manufacturers. The invention of the process of vulcanization by Charles Goodier led to the appearance of the first condom in 1855, which is why some still call them "rubber bands".

Condoms practically did not change from the moment of invention. The first condom "Trojan" appeared in 1920, since then ribs and points appeared on it to enhance stimulation, but, by and large, it remained exactly the same.

Condoms, for the most part, have no effect on the quality of sex. Multiple surveys have shown that the sensations during sex with a condom and without it are almost identical, although some guys continue to joke about sex in a "space suit". And now think: the condom protects against pregnancy by 98% and makes sex safe in terms of transmission of various infections, so can the excuse "with it me uncomfortable" cost to risk it?.

Your parents are likely to be less inclined to use condoms than you. Sorry for the association, but couples over 40 years of age practically do not use condoms for many reasons. On average, judging by world statistics, only 25% of stable pairs are protected with condoms, among free people this figure is much higher and reaches 40%.

Almost half of all condoms in the world are bought by women. Naturally, they have nothing to wear them, but more than 40% of the sold condoms were bought by girls. It's great because they care about security and do not get into the situation: "oh, it seems I'm over", which guys like to use.

Only a third of teens know how to properly use a condom. This is a rather sad statistics, and not only because knowledge would save them from embarrassment during their first sex. The fact is that those teens who were shown and told about the rules of putting on a condom are likely to use them in the future, and those who do not know about its importance will prefer to ignore an incomprehensible subject.

Even the most common condom is loosely worn on the largest penis. The manufacturer of condoms TheyFit produces the largest sizes: the developers joke that in their products without problems the bank of chips Pringles. By the way, not so long ago an ordinary American woman once and for all solved the problem of the male excuse "He is small to me": she filmed the process of putting a condom on her leg. And you know what?

He took it to her knee!.

There is a person who dreams of improving a condom - it's Bill Gates. He and his wife Melinda, the charitable foundation annually allocates more than 100 thousand dollars for grants to inventors and researchers working in this industry. It is assumed that the "condoms of the future" will have different shapes for different penises and even ... pens (probably for ease of removal and putting on).
