Contraception made easy in Spain

By Wendy Williams

FOR men who get flustered in the crucial moment, a Spanish woman has invented an easy-on condom that will even benefit the blind.

Andalucian entrepreneur Marรญa รngeles Machuca has added two disposable strips on either side of the condom to make safe sex that little bit simpler and less โ€˜boringโ€™.

Machuca, who lives in Cadiz, spent three years working on her design, which has now been patented in Spain.

She believes there is a big future for the product which โ€˜besides being new and differentโ€™ is easy to use.

โ€œThe idea first occurred to a friend of mine. One day when we were chatting he told me he thought putting on a condom would be easier if they had two strips,โ€ she said. โ€œI thought it was a brilliant idea and began to develop it,โ€ explained the 54-year-old.

The new design will make it much easier for many โ€˜such as the blindโ€™ who will now simply have to open the packet and find the strips.

According to Machuca โ€˜over a millionโ€™ condoms have already been sold in the US and it has become the latest โ€˜star productโ€™ in China.
