Condom prices stable as more people choose protected sex

Condom, which is sometimes referred to as a ”rubber” or ”prophylactic”, is a method of birth control and also a way of reducing the risk of spreading sexually transmitted infections (STI). Condoms are easy to use and easy to get, but with different brands in the market, competition is fierce.

However, prices have been stable.

I am a married man and I can’t use condom. It is only a way to corrupt youths, there should be no sex until marriage when you are sure of your spouse.

As for me, I don’t like to use condom. I prefer sex the normal way. After all, condom is not 100% sure for protection.
