Are there any products – natural or man made – that are “perfectly safe”? Everything I use in my daily life has an element of risk, however slight. I am drinking my morning coffee after a breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast. I am consuming caffeine with my coffee. I consumed Nitrites and nitrates with the bacon. Evil eggs contain cholesterol. The bread I toasted was store bought, not home made – so it contained preservatives. I even put butter on the Toast. Guess I just like to live dangerously.
Everything we use is a tradeoff between the benefits and hazards. Nothing I can think of is “perfectly safe”.

I agree but the question is how great is the risk.

Condoms are used internally and rubbed into soft moist tissue.

No other product on the market (cigs. included) has anything like as many FDA listed toxins, carcinogens and teratogens.

The exact number is different for every brand but none have under ONE HUNDRED.

Condoms contain two of the most powerful carcinogens know to man AND two potent teratogens (cause birth defects).

The law (Calif) requires a warning label for products containing carcinogens but the condom manufacturers have refused to comply and no legal action has been taken.


This is criminal in the strict sense of the word.


Best wishes,


David
