There’s a new type of condom but we really don’t think lads will go for it

We're not sure about this one.

No form of contraceptive is perfect or suits everyone.

That’s why we’re always on the look out for new ones, but we seriously doubt guys will go for this one.

Lads are fairly sensitive down there and somehow this looks a bit iffy.

According to Maxim, the latest innovation in condom products comes in the form of Jiftip.

Their product is simple, a sticker that goes on the tip of your penis so that the tip is covered but everything else is free to feel all the different sensations during sex.

The top layer is polyurethane, and the bottom layer that sticks to the tip of your penis is like an industrial strength plaster so that nothing can leak out.

Why let us explain though when we can show you a visual of how it works…

This is all well and good in theory because the rest of the penis is free but safe and protected when having sex but we couldn’t help but think of one downside.

It’s been described like a plaster and everyone knows just how bad a plaster can hurt when it’s ripped off from the likes of your knee or your arm.

Imagine the sort of pain you’d be in from ripping it off the top of a penis then? Sounds like a non-runner.
