90 Years Of Latex and The US Dating Scene

90 Years Of Latex and The US Dating Scene

With National HIV Testing day coming up next month, alarming statistics are brought to the forefront:

  • one in four New Yorkers does not know if they are HIV positive
  • every nine and a half minutes someone in the United States contracts HIV

Such scary statistics make us think twice about dating. However, with the practice of safe sex, I guess we have nothing to be feared about.

The year 2010 marks the 90th anniversary of the latex condom — a far cry from the ancient Egyptian linen sheaths and the designs from the 1700's that were known as armor against pleasure — consumers now have a wide selection of condom choices that are designed to protect and prevent HIV/AIDS and STDs while providing pleasure as well.

LifeStyles® Condoms' SKYN™ is the first-of-its-kind, non-latex, polyisoprene condom that is dubbed as the closest thing to wearing nothing. Now, LifeStyles® has released KYNG™ and THYN™ with the launch of The LifeStyles® Signature Collection.

Using a condom however, is just one way of practicing safe sex. Dating doesn't necessarily mean sex.
