Geekdom of Books: Romance Novels and the Condoms Dilemma

I know, I know this is such an old rant but I hate it when you read a contemporary romance and oops the couple of interest forgets the protection for 3 days. Seriously?

But I don’t want  to rant about this topic today. I want to show how funny the topic of condoms can be and so I started to google around and I found a few interesting *insert blush here* variations.

And OMG researching this was an experience I tell ya.

1. Vibrating condoms
I found these in a guest post one Leontine’s Book Realm a while ago and I was like OMG that really exists? Yes it does and I found them online here. Beside the fast that I find it an hilarious idea I had to read the customer reviews and OMG you have to read those. So funny! I know it is immature but I just couldn’t stop laughing. Lovely idea …

And the winner is…

Hey everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful week and an even better weekend.
