Condom: First invented
Casanova, one of the first men to use a condom as contraception rather than to prevent VD, seems to have never sired a child.
In 1564 the "De Morbo Gallico" of Gabriello Fallopio (1523-1563) was published
posthumously. Here the Italian
anatomist described the linen sheath he claimed to have invented. Made to fit the glans of the
penis it was devised
essentially as a protective against venereal disease. The foreskin had to be pulled over the
device to keen it in
place. An alternative usage suggested by Fallopius must have been even more difficult - to
insert the sheath in
the urethra. He did claim however to have tested the sheath on 1,100 men, with not one of
them becoming
infected.
