About Climax Control Condoms

"It's a tantra master wrapped in foil, the antidote to impatient passion. Two lines of "climax control" condoms that contain a mild anethetic, Benzocaine, promise men the sort of self-restraint that once required tantric meditation or at least a distracting thought or two during sex.

HPV Information

Genital HPV infection is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) that is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Human papillomavirus is the name of a group of viruses that includes more than 100 different strains or types. More than 30 of these viruses are sexually transmitted, and they can infect the genital area of men and women including the skin of the penis, vulva (area outside the vagina), or anus, and the linings of the vagina, cervix, or rectum. Most people who become infected with HPV will not have any symptoms and will clear the infection on their own.

Center of Disease Control Male Latex Condom Fact Sheet

In June 2000, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), convened a workshop to evaluate the published evidence establishing the effectiveness of latex male condoms in preventing STDs, including HIV. A summary report from that workshop was completed in July 2001 (http://www.niaid.nih.gov/ dmid/stds/condomreport.pdf). This fact sheet is based on the NIH workshop report and additional studies that were not reviewed in that report or were published subsequent to the workshop (see link for additional references). Most epidemiologic studies comparing rates of STD transmission between condom users and non-users focus on penile-vaginal intercourse.

Condoms: Barriers to Bad News

What do condoms have in common with toothpaste and toilet paper?

Not enough, according to Adam Glickman, owner of the Condomania stores in New York and Los Angeles. Glickman, who has sold condoms by the millions to individuals and organizations such as the Peace Corps and Planned Parenthood, says condoms should be viewed as ordinary, like toothpaste and toilet paper. "People have gotten past asking, 'Isn't brushing my teeth every morning a hassle?' Given the world we live in, wearing condoms is something you just have to do, like brushing your teeth. The stakes are too high."

Trojan makes education tour

Posted by Condom Depot on 05/02/2008

Representatives from Trojan Condoms addressed both the sexually active and abstinent UT community on Thursday as part of its nationwide college tour.

Representatives from Trojan Condoms addressed both the sexually active and abstinent UT community on Thursday as part of its nationwide college tour.

"We are trying to get people to evolve past piggish behavior to being aware of the need for sexual safety," said Kari Kuka, spokeswoman and sexual health educator for the tour.

About 65 million Americans live with incurable sexually transmitted diseases, and another 19 million are diagnosed every year, Kuka said, adding that America has the highest rate of STD infections of any industrialized nation. This is made worse by the fact that only one in four sexual acts among singles involves the use of a condom, she said.

"It's important that we educate so that we can prevent these trends from continuing," Kuka said.

The Evolve Tour, which will stop at 65 college campuses nationwide, provides sexual education in the form of short videos and a lounge where

students can talk with sexual health educators. Students can also sign a pledge promising to use protection when engaging in any sexual acts, and students gave shout-outs to the UT community challenging members to live sexually healthy lives.

"It's pretty dang important to use protection so disease doesn't spread," said audiology graduate student Amanda Harris. "You have to contain the nasties."

Also central to the tour is a petition that asks people to commit to sexual education beyond the tour. Part of the petition calls for increased contraceptive advertising during prime time hours on basic television channels.

There are no laws restricting contraceptive advertising during prime time hours, but as a general rule, many of the biggest television stations decline to air ads during their prime time viewing hours, leaving contraceptive commercials to run late at night or on cable channels.

The other part of the petition seeks to make comprehensive sexual education in schools a standard, instead of abstinence-only classes.

"We support abstinence 100 percent. It's the only sure way to prevent STD transmission," Kuka said. "But some of these people are telling their students that condoms don't work. People need to make their voices heard. They need to say that they want the real information."

Condoms are not 100-percent effective in preventing STDs, especially those that are transmitted by skin contact, such as herpes and syphilis, according to a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. However, they greatly reduce the risk of infection and are essentially impermeable to particles the size of STD pathogens.
