Most people detest the latex sheath over their wieners, but what if I told you that condoms can stimulate the “pleasure points” and accentuate sexual pleasure? You’d probably think I’ve gone nuts!
But scientists from down under (pun unintended: they are a bunch of Australians racking brains over it) have been developing a new hydrogel condom called the ‘GELdom’, which imitates the feeling of human skin!
“It feels like real human tissue, like when you’re touching someone but they’re covered in a lubricant”, says Josep Ciorciari, one of the developers and a noted cognitive neuroscientist at the Swineburne University.
In addition to crafting a pleasure-laden condom, the researchers also hope to identify other reasons why people are averse towards condoms. Most people state that they dislike condoms because of the “way it feels”.
