Mojo Condoms Celebrates a Safe and Sexy Christmas

And urges young people to wave goodbye to those STIs - in support of World AIDS Day

November 21, 2007 - Tis the season to be jolly� � but ideally without your festive frolics causing a trip to the sexual health clinic before the turkey has even gone cold! In support of World AIDS Day� � on December 1, 2007, and in the interests of waving a winter goodbye to those unwanted STIs, Mojo Condoms ( http://www.mojocondoms.com ) � � a manufacturer of fresh and funky condoms for young people - gives its top tips on how to overcome � �condom cringe� � and play safe for Christmas and the New Year.

According to an online survey of 30,000 young people, more than a third of under-25s dont automatically use a condom every time they have sex with a new partner. Which is a risky business, as the UK has the highest incidence of STIs in Western Europe*. Mojo Condoms wants to make it easier for 16-30 year olds to have that vital � �condom conversation� � and to see the reliable Johnny as the perfect stocking filler that everyone should carry on a night out. So, the party pocket essentials should be mobile, cash and condoms without fail!

Sonia OConnor, marketing manager and expert at Mojo, gives her top tips on getting some mojo in your life� � and, lets face it, everyone needs some!

She says: � �If you� �re worried about the � �cringe factor� �, remember that carrying a condom may make you more attractive to the opposite sex as it shows respect and that youre not taking anything for granted or risking anyone� �s health.� �

� �If a potential partner doesn� �t have a condom, take control of the situation and make it clear, in the nicest way possible, that no condom means no sex.� �

She adds: � �As with most � �tools of the trade� �, its all about technique � � so practice before you try the � �real thing� �. How many of us kissed the back of our hands before we tried it out properly? The same applies to condoms. Experiment with them. Get used to opening the wrapper (not with your teeth!), holding the tip and rolling it down whatever you� �re practising on� � there are sure to be many appropriately shaped items in your home!� �

� �When it does come to that special moment, have the condom close to hand so it takes seconds to open and put on, reducing any � �waiting time� �. You don� �t want to be searching for half an hour, scratching your head and saying � �I know it� �s here somewhere� �, while your date is left cold.� �

� �Sometimes less is more: don� �t even talk about it, just do it and pop the condom straight on. This will be a real turn-on for the guy or girl as it makes you look in control.� �

Mojo advocates � �Girl Power� �. Says Sonia: � �Women buy four out of every 10 condoms sold� � so, ladies, please remember that it� �s not just the guy� �s job to have the rubbers ready these days.� �

You might be choosy about your date for the evening but STIs aren� �t fussy about who they infect. Sonia advises: � �Remember that even if he/she is fit and gorgeous, the person you� �ve fancied for ages may still have an STI. So protect yourself with a condom every time.� �

And don� �t listen to daft condom-avoidance arguments such as, � �it feels like wearing a welly� �. Sonia says: � �You can buy a variety of condom sizes, textures and colours today. So if you think using a condom means less sensation, just use a Thin Skin condom and prove yourself wrong.� �

Mojo� �s product range includes: Thin Skin (for extra sensitivity), Ribbed (for increased sensation) and Xtreme Dotted and Ribbed (for maximum stimulation) � � so there� �s something for everyone at www.mojocondoms.com. All products are sourced from BSi (Kitemark) approved manufacturers.

Notes for editors
Mojo Condoms, as a brand, originates in Australia - where condoms are generally more accessible and cheaper than in the UK, and young people � �down under� � are easy-going and open about using them. The Mojo range was launched in the UK by marketing mogul, Sonia O� �Connor, in June 2007. She previously worked for various multinationals before deciding to take the cringe-free, funky condom range � � and the related message about safer sex � � to a UK youth audience (aged 16-30).

Mojo Condoms donates 10% of its profits to rubber tree planting programmes in the Far East, where most of the world� �s rubber is produced. This helps ensure sustainable forestry for future generations.
