After Talia Frenkel worked as a photojournalist for the Red Cross and the United Nations, she decided she wanted to help with the devastating effects of AIDS, which is the top killer of adult women worldwide. So she started L, a condom company that, for every condom sold, donates another to a female entrepreneur in a developing country. “So far, we’re partnered with more than 2,800 women in Swaziland and Uganda. They educate their peers about why this product is important and generate an income—everyone benefits,” says Frenkel.
Not only that, but she also created a condom that doesn’t irritate the skin or have that nasty rubber smell ubiquitous to condoms. And the packaging is different from your usual, drug-store condom—instead of a masculine image targeting guys, “which is out of touch with the modern view of sexuality,” L’s box is more gender-neutral. So far, students in a blind study have really responded to the new condom. Who knew safe sex could be so enjoyable and globally beneficial?
