A cruelty-free condom has been launched to cater for the much neglected vegan market.
The range of condoms has been manufactured using no animal ingredients or derivatives, in line with vegan beliefs.
Traditionally the processing of latex, used to make condoms, has involved the use of casein - a milk protein.
Vegans shun milk because its production involves breeding calves destined for the meat industry, which they regard as cruel.
But the range from German manufacturer Condomi utilises cocoa powder instead and has been awarded the Vegan Society's seal of approval.
Vegan Society general manager Richard Fairhall said: "Much to their frustration vegans in the UK have long been denied access to a cruelty-free condom.
"The launch of Condomi's range changes all that - no longer will vegans have to suppress their natural instinct to make love not war."
Condomi condoms are available through the Family Planning Association and are soon to go on sale in Superdrug stores priced from £1.99 for a pack of three.<
Well, I haven't been told by anyone that I'm going to h@ll today, maybe they are all still in church. Yes, there is a new Victoria's Secret catalogue out. So they have to pray a few extra hours for looking through it.
That excuse hasn't worked for me since high school.
Yes, but does it work?
Dubya, sweetie, I think you should get an A+ and extra credit.....
The vegans took a picture of one, eh? Do they realize that the largest use for animal bones is in making photographic film? Kodak gets bones by the _trainload_.
Yes, I am still here. What do you have in mind......
Well princess Morgana, I see that your squire is not around...
