Everyone knows how love makes one act like a fool! February 13, which also happens to be Valentines Eve, is also International Condom Day. So some wise soul decided to place the events adjacent to each other just to highlight the importance of condom use. Coincidence? We think not. The day was started in 2009 as an informal holiday by AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), a global not-for-profit organisation, to promote safe sex. Kenyans took oto social media to comemmorate the day.

Condoms are the most popular methods of contraception globally. Condoms- as small as they look, have a significant role to play in society. Right from population control to prevent you from STIs and STDs. No one should be ashamed of talking about contraception.However, their popularity doesn’t always translate into efficiency, mainly due to the misconceptions about condoms.
Here are some myths about condoms you should stop believing in. Wearing two condoms doesn’t improve the efficiency of the contraceptive method. In fact, it only causes inconvenience as the surface of the condom underneath is slippery and that causes the one above to slide out and interrupt your experience.
We also need to stop believing that wearing two condoms doesn’t improve the efficiency of the contraceptive method. In fact, it only causes inconvenience as the surface of the condom underneath is slippery and that causes the one above to slide out and interrupt your experience. Does wearing two condoms even feel comfortable honestly?

Another myth to stop believing in is a popular notion, that women cannot wear condoms. As a matter of fact, condoms for women are available in the market that you can use. They help prevent unwanted pregnancies and protect one from STIs and STDs. This takes us back to the previous saga of DK Kwenye Beat and the alleged Herpes infection. Are you thinking what I am thinking?
Happy International Condom Day to you all.
