An Argentinian sex toy company has designed a new condom that it says proves consent because it needs four hands – in other words, two people – to open it. The brand, Tulipán, designed the packaging of the condom with a series of pressure points around the fours edges. The prospect of not being able to put on a condom to have safe sex won’t be enough of a deterrent to stop many sexual predators. But beyond these logistical problems, it also ignores all the nuances of consent – the fact that consent can be withdrawn at any time (yes, even after she has helped you open the box). It’s like the problem of consent videos – an open condom box is not evidence that someone wasn’t raped.
