A lot of raincoat manufacturers out there tout ‘breathable’ materials that are allegedly waterproof as well. They seem mutually exclusive to me, both through logic and through experimentation.

I propose the breathable condom – constructed from any one of the dubious wonder-fabrics in question. Those dastardly raincoat manufacturers can put their money where their mouths are.

For her, if you can't find a scuba condom. [Cedar Park, Oct 15 2005]

       Why not just a mesh condom?   

       The ultimate in comfort!

       If I use these, does it mean I can give up my search for the woman who can breathe through her ears?

       Well if there is, I haven't found her yet.

       I just made that up.

       The "breathable" promise refers to water vapor being able to pass through the very small pores in the membrane, not to a liquid. (It's not the fact that something is sweat that makes it pass through, it's that it's evaporating.) If you are suffering from too much water vapour in your condom, you should seriously consider upgrading your equipment from the steam-powered model to a more environmentally sound electrical or hybrid.

       No point in working up a sweat over all this.

       Not yet honey. Just let it breathe.   

       You know, I think it might actually work. Not sure if you really need it, but I think it might work.

       It may go some way to prevent suffocation due to misplaced condoms clinging to the face.

       Oh, now this is an idea. Now EVERYTHING can be sticky!

       Isn't Gore-Tex(tm) excessively friction-prone? Cloth on the outside or in? I guess it depends on what your inclinations are...

       //money where their...// whaa?

       What were you doing when this popped into your head [Texticle]?
wagster, Oct 17 2005
  

       do we need to know?   

       there should be some way of alerting an ambulance...
po, Oct 17 2005
  

       Funnily enough I was thrashing about, gasping for air as a mislaid condom clung to my face.   

       I'm living one day at a time now.
Texticle, Oct 18 2005
  

       So that's what I've been doing wrong.
