Since America is a sex crazed and addicted society, not to mention a nation with an almost totally deteriorated moral fabric which is implicated by its high out of wedlock childbirth and STD (sexually transmitted disease) infection statistics, condoms play an invaluable role in the scheme of things pertaining to sex in America.
The overwhelming majority of Americans lack discipline of any kind, especially when it comes to sex, so for the most part, anybody suggesting abstinence or celibacy will be frowned upon (before they are lynched). Sex is very important and powerful in America. It is a source of pleasure and control. It can also be a source of pain (mentally and physically). This is true for anybody who has ever experienced an STD infection. STDs wreck havoc upon one's life - pain, blisters, frustration, medical and pharmacy bills, and frustration, just to name a few. Also, unplanned pregnancies can cause tremendous mental and psychological pain, especially on the pregnant female.
Because of the high incidence and rates of unplanned pregnancies and STDs, condoms are greatly needed in a society that hates discipline and loves sex without responsibility and accountability for the sex act.
However, there are some things that you should know about condoms, especially if you think condoms are a gift from heaven. So, a little education is required.
A condom is a flexible sheath worn over the penis during sexual intercourse to prevent pregnancy or venereal disease. A condom is a prophylactic. A prophylactic is that which acts to defend against or prevent something, esp. a disease. Condoms were originally made from the intestines of certain animals, such as pigs and lambs. Yes, the casings that hold sausages today were the original condoms. If you think you don't eat pork or pig byproducts, but you eat beef, chicken, or turkey sausages, you're eating pork because today most non-pork sausages are cased in pork intestines. That's right, Muslim and Jews (who look to only eat Halal and Kosher foods)!
However, these animal-based condoms were not getting the job done because they were not dense enough and were breaking in the sex act.
You may not know this, but many of the early American fraternities used to have rituals where male initiates would have to insert their penis in the rectum or vagina of an animal (cow, horse, sheep, etc.). At first, these initiates had to penetrate bare back (uncovered). Because many college females were being infected with viral infections (from having sex with frat guys who penetrated animals), the initiates were allowed to wear condoms (animal casing) as a prophylactic. Soon, these condoms made their way into the vaginas of females, for pregnancy and disease prevention purposes.
Animal-based condoms were breaking in the sex act and unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases were the result. A stronger, more elastic, dense, and durable condom was needed. The Rockefeller-dominated oil industry developed a condom made from petroleum. Its use was short lived though. The answer to the reliable condom problem was found in a plant sap. This plant sap was called latex. Latex is the plant sap from which rubber is made. Condoms were then made from latex, just like rubber, which is why condoms are referred to as rubbers. Rubber is very elastic and durable.
So here we are today in modern times with latex condoms. Is all well now with condoms? Of course not! How many times have we heard somebody say that the condom broke or burst open in the sex act? However, this would have to be the most minor problem with today's latex condoms. We live in a very sinister world today and where disease is big business. Nefarious activity is going on in the condom industry today. Before I expose the sinister workings of the condom industry, I want to cover the adverse side effects or problems that can be associated with condom use.
Some people are allergic to latex, and may be sensitive to the chemicals used to process latex. Latex sensitivity can result in inflammation of the skin of the penis. Many males may think they were burned (infected) by the female while in the sex act though a condom was used, but it was not the female. It was the chemicals used to process the latex and the latex itself that caused the problem.
Condoms also leach. In the sex act, condoms can leach into the vagina and cause a host of serious diseases in the vagina.
Some condoms also contain alcohol, which is a skin irritant, especially to African-Americans.
Condoms also contain petroleum-based ingredients such as non-oxydol 9, which is a spermicide used in contraceptive products that consists of a mixture of compounds having a general formula with an average of nine ethylene oxide groups per molecule. Webster's New Complete Medical Dictionary (1995), pg. 464. Petroleum suffocates the skin, outer skin as well as internal skin. Therefore, petroleum products (i.e. jelly) should never be used as a lubricant for sex purposes. Petroleum also deteriorates latex rapidly, making it easy to break.
The nefarious activity of some condom manufacturers include putting toxic powders and talc into certain brands of condoms. A fine powder of the very toxic beryllium oxide is put into certain condoms and causes severe burning and itching of the mucous membranes in the female vaginal orifice. After the itching subsides, a papulovesicular rash (inflammation and blisters) occurs.
The toxic chemical ethylene dibromide when placed in condoms causes abnormal redness and blisters to occur when it comes into contact with human skin. The medical diagnosis is genital herpes.
Thanks to the AIDS hoax, condom sales are at an all time high, especially in minority communities. It is now common to find condom ads on billboards and in magazines. Some brands even air television and radio commercials. Sex and sex prevention is big business in America!
Also, many condom names send subtle or subliminal messages to the subconscious mind. Why would you name a brand of condoms after the great Egyptian (Khemtic) pharaoh Ramses? What does Ramses II (Ursa Ma'at-Ra Septep-N-Ra) have to do with pregnancy prevention, especially when he sired over 100 children in his lifetime? Is their message that their brand of condom will give the opposite effect of what Ramses II achieved? This is something to think about.
Or what about Trojan brand condoms? Why would you name your brand of condom Trojan, when in Greek mythology, the City of Troy was conquered by the Greeks who hid in a Trojan horse statue that was brought within the gates of Troy, and when the Trojans least expected it, the Greeks burst out of the Trojan horse and conquered the Trojans? Is the message that unlike the Trojan horse of Greek mythology, the male penis will not burst out of the Trojan brand condom and conqueror the host orifice (vagina)? This is something to think about. There are reasons for everything and everything means something, especially in the world of advertising.
All in all, it boils down to choice - birth control pills, a condom, or abstinence. If a woman is not on the pill, and does not want to get pregnant or contract a sexually transmitted disease, the choice lies in a condom or abstinence. Abstinence is unlikely in most cases, so the condom (male or female condom) will win by a landslide. Yes, condoms are a prophylactic with a 90% efficiency rate, but there can be major repercussions depending on what type of brand condoms you purchase.
You should also know that under a microscope, you can see that condoms have a hole in them so big that they allow microscopic viruses and parasites to enter in through them, which is the equivalent of throwing a ping pong ball into a basketball rim. Now that's a big hole! That's something to think about!
In closing, when it comes to sex, make sure you use condom sense. It's better to be safe than sorry! Djehuty is not an advocate of condoms or condom use. However, he believes in giving information to help people make informed choices.
