Creative uses for condoms



http://apnews.myway.com/article/20050423/D89L30QO0.html

Quote:
NEW DELHI (AP) - Only a quarter of condoms made in India are used for sex, most of the others are used to make saris, toys and bathroom slippers, a newspaper reported Saturday.
Okay, it's not *quite* what the lead-in would have you believe!

Re Creative uses for condoms

Of course, I had visions of stretchy rubber saris, ribbed for her enjoyment.

Re Creative uses for condoms

Wow. If they use them for slippers, I really hope they're not lubricated. One could slip, fall and take an eye out!

Re Creative uses for condoms

Re Creative uses for condoms

I bet the folks in India aren't the only ones doing this either. I wish latex only gave me hives. I may have to give up shopping altogether.
