to protect the condom I have 3 ideas:<br><br>1) There is one brand of condom that comes packed inside a small metal disk. It looks like a coin. I think it's 2 pieces of aluminum that fit toghther in a clamshell fashion. They may not be quite as rugged as you might wish, but they would resist wear and abrasion better than the paper by far.<br><br>2) If you can get access to a kitchen vacuum sealing machine, you could vacuum seal a condom into a very small vacuum bag. That adds durability with very little weight or space.<br><br>3) sandwich the condom between 2 pieces of Duct tape or other tape.<br><br>By the way, I would advise against using your condom for... well, let's just say "the purpose for which it was manufactured"... They become unreliable with age and exposure to heat, even body heat, over time. Use only fresh ones for that.<br><br><br><br>
