Eat My Shorts

I got a three hour dose of STI prevention today in Womens Health. Although I learned nothing new, I may have thought of the next best thing to be sold at the "As Seen on TV" store. Upon discussing the shortcommings of the male condom--most noteably its inability to fully protect you from viruses like HPV and herpes, a lightbulb went off in my head. Why hasn't anybody invented polyurethane shorts with a pouch for your wang? Maybe they could fold up into a travel sized square and guys--or girls, since we seem to carry the burden of preparedness as it is-could just have them in case they are out for the evening and have the good fortune of meeting a promiscuous drunk woman with vomit in her hair and a broken heel. Neither my classmates nor my teacher took this idea seriously, but honestly, if you are not willing to look stupid, you probably shouldn't be having sex at all. Think about it.
