    Latex is natural rubber and is indeed biodegradable though it is slow to break down. Polyurethane condoms will probably be found in the archeological record.

      I mean, true but they’re better than the styrofoam ones…

        (I know you’re joking but the builder in me is genuinely curious if you can make a rubber-like substance out of polystyrene)

          Styrene is in the vynal family, Styrene-Isoprene-Styrene is used to make extremely expensive surgical gloves so I’m going to say yes.

      Polyurethane also biodegrades, just very slowly. Since condoms are very thin there will be not much left of them after a century

      Classic supporter of the Sheep-Sex-industrial complex… But not the Welsh kind.
