I gotta be honest with you. This is one of those things I never really thought was a problem. Apparently a lot of guys are finding putting on condoms to be too hard (pun intended), and too time consuming.

Pronto Condoms, a South African company, thinks there are enough slow, clumsy glove users out there that it warrants a "condom for the new millennium". Their website cites the difficulties using "ordinary" condoms, and I quote: "Let’s face it, using an ordinary condom is a real pain in the butt. (They really say that. And not in an ironic way.) First, you have to tear the pack open, often using your teeth. Then you have to take the condom out of the pack – this is a slippery business at the best of times. Next, you have to figure out which is the right side up, before you can unroll it..."

I'm frustrated just reading about it. The revolutionary technology they've come up with to combat all this confusion is their crack-open pack with built-in speed applicator. Yes. A speed applicator. Built into the package. (THE package, not YOUR package.) Because, seriously, who has an extra nine seconds?

Still can't figure out how to use it? Pronto has this handy video that shows you how quick and easy putting a lid on Little Jimmy can be.

Right now it's only available in South Africa, but hopefully it'll make its way across the pond to the US. Because if it's faster and easier, we want it.
