Condoms are Evil

» Sex Education

If you don’t think that some people consider the use of prophylactics as immoral let me introduce you to the 20th century Roman Catholic Church.

The history of condoms is a chronicle of appetite and fear, of desire and darkness. The aspect of condoms that offends some orthodox religious beliefs, after all, is that it treats the possibility of pregnancy as something as unwanted as a disease, something to be prevented for the sake of sexual gratification: the condom is an indulgence, an avoidance.

From a New York Times look at Rubbers: The Life, History & Struggle of the Condom, an exhibition at the Museum of Sex, Unrolled, Unbridled and Unabashed
