Asymmetric condom

made of a double-layered latex/viton membrane
 
(+4, -4)
  [vote for,
against]

This condom is made of a special fused double membrane which consists of latex on the inside and viton on the outside. (viton is an elastic version of teflon).

The advantages: high friction coefficient on the male side, which prevents it from slipping off, and low friction coefficient on the female side, for better lubrication.

       Viton, like most rubbers, has a high coefficient of friction.

       I actually like this idea, regardless of the particulars.

       Viton has a high heat resistance, but you know that old joke:   

       If you're smoking after sex, you're probably doing it too fast.

       I love a lopsided man...

       But I believe it's lower than latex. (correct me if I'm wrong)   

       PS. since you say "most", do you know of any rubbers that have a low coefficient of friction? I'd be glad to know.

       Oooh....I don't even want to think of the chafing on the inside...
