The Many Creative Non-Sex Uses of Condoms | ISH News

Condoms are commonly known for preventing unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) like HIV, gonorrhoea, chlamydia, and syphilis. But did you know that condoms have many other creative uses beyond their role in sexual health?
From ancient times to the present, people around the world have found unique ways to use condoms for activities completely unrelated to intimacy. Let’s explore some surprising non-sexual uses of condoms.
1. Storing Water
Condoms are not just flexible; they are also watertight and stretchable. These qualities make them perfect for water storage. In fact, you can collect up to two litres of water in a single condom if used properly. Archaeologists also use condoms to store water and soil samples from their digs at historic sites.
2. Protecting Guns and Weapons
Condoms have been used by soldiers for decades, but not in the way you might think. During World War II and the Gulf War of 1990, soldiers used condoms to cover their guns and rifles, keeping them clean and dry. The British Ministry of Defense even sent 500,000 camouflage condoms to its military in Saudi Arabia to protect weapons from the desert sand.
3. Fun and Games
In Chimoio, Mozambique, children have come up with their own creative ways to play with condoms. They use them to make soccer and beach balls by tying a few condoms together and covering them with rags. Others turn them into slingshots or fill them with water to create makeshift water balloons.
4. Household Uses
Condoms can also be handy around the house. Stretch a condom over a tight jar lid to give you the extra grip you need to open it. If you have stubborn stains on your taps, filling a condom with a mixture of vinegar and water, and leaving it overnight, can help clean them without the need for scrubbing. Condoms can even be used to polish shoes, boots, and CDs. They are also great for sealing items when you don’t have a rubber band.
5. Medical Uses
When it comes to medical applications, condoms can be lifesavers. If you have a wound or a bandage that needs to stay dry during a bath, simply stretch a condom over it to protect it from water. You can also use frozen condoms as cold compresses to reduce swelling. Some swimmers wear condoms in natural water bodies like lakes or rivers to protect against parasites and infections. Interestingly, people even use condoms to keep their hair moisturized, as the lubricant can help prevent dryness.
6. Protecting Devices
Want to protect your gadgets from water damage? Simply wrap your phone, tablet, or even your earphones in a non-lubricated condom. This simple trick can protect them from rain or water while swimming. In fact, many companies even use condoms to protect their microphones when recording sounds underwater.
As we can see, condoms are far more versatile than most people realize. So, next time you come across a condom, remember that it can serve many purposes beyond just sexual health!
