Color changing condoms can help assist in STI detection– because nobody wants warts.
If you have ever wondered if the random bar-fly guido you picked up on a desperate night in Midtown has herpes, now you can find out in the privacy of your own home.
Three teenagers of undetermined ethnic heritage named Daanyaal Ali, Chirag Shah, and Muaz Nawaz recently won a TeenTech award for their idea to create a condom that detects sexually transmitted infections. The condoms will be covered in antibodies that react to certain infections and cause a color change; green for chlamydia, purple for HPV, blue for syphilis, and yellow for herpes.

I don’t know how or why three 13 and 14-year-olds are even thinking about color changing condoms, but I do feel like this product will help clear up a lot of questions for a lot of slutty sorority girls.
I guess my question is, if the condom is already on, aren’t you already having sex most of the time? Also, who looks at the condom after sex? Don’t you normally just throw it out the window or bury it deep within the trash? And lastly, if you are using a condom, shouldn’t you be pretty protected from any STI’s anyway?
