GUYS: Study Says Condoms Contain Cancer Causing Substance....
Study Says Condoms Contain Cancer-Causing Substance
BERLIN (Reuters) - Most condoms contain a cancer-causing chemical and their manufacture should be subject to greater quality control, a German scientific research institute said Friday. The Chemical and Veterinary Investigation Institute in Stuttgart, Germany, said it found the carcinogen N-Nitrosamine present in 29 of 32 types of condoms it tested in simulated conditions. "N-Nitrosamine is one of the most carcinogenic substances," the study's authors said. "There is a pressing need for manufacturers to tackle this problem." The carcinogen is thought to be present in a substance used to improve condom elasticity. When the rubber material comes in contact with human bodily fluids, it can release traces of N-Nitrosamine, the study said. story link........

If is released by bodily fluids then women are more at risk.
On a less serious note it's karma for those drug traffickers that bring in drugs that way. |

I just heard on the news that you have to use condoms at least a million times or so before there is a risk of cancer
rumors have it that Porsche drivers are among the first to boycott the use of condoms...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
