BOGOTA (Reuters)
The so-called Panty Condom, trumpeted as the first of its
kind, consists of lacy panties, in black or white, with an
opening in the crotch.
A thin resin membrane stuck to the inside of the underwear
stretches like a condom.
Bogota-based manufacturer Natural Sensation launched the
condom-with-a-difference at a Bogota hotel late
Wednesday.
It is set to retail in Colombian supermarkets and pharmacies
for about $3.60,
including two spare membranes. The
membranes are made of a resin called AT-10 rather than the latex
used in traditional condoms.
Inventor Max Abadi said the company aimed to sell 50,000
Panty Condoms this year -- equivalent to about three
percent of the national condom market. He is also eyeing what he
hopes will be lucrative export markets in Central
and South America.
A Colombian condom-maker has come up
with a garment to help
time-pressed lovers have
safe sex without even taking their panties off.
