The Paris Olympics are making it safe for athletes to bone again, and will even be equipping the Olympic Village with 300,000 condoms for the Summer Games, which kicks off in July.
The green light reverses course set by the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Summer Games, which ended up actually taking place in 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Although athletes were provided with 160,000 condoms, they were strictly prohibited from engaging in sexual activity and told to keep the prophylactics as souvenirs. Any athletes found to be in violation of the rules were subject to fines and disqualification, with repeat offenders even risking having their Olympic medals taken away.
There were also rumors of the Tokyo Olympics organizers installing "anti-sex" cardboard beds to discourage intimacy, which were eventually debunked on social media. Among other amenities in Paris, the village will also feature beds that can support over 550 pounds, although it's unclear whether that has anything to do with media reports of Tokyo's cardboard beds.
"It is very important that the conviviality here is something big," Laurent Michaud, director of the Olympic Village, told TMZ. "Working with the athletes commission, we wanted to create some places where the athletes would feel very enthusiastic and comfortable."
That's certainly one way of putting it.
The Olympic Village, which will be located in L'Île-Saint-Denis, will be temporary home to 14,500 athletes and staff. As TMZ points out, the 300,000 condoms will be "enough for each person to have sex multiple times per day."
The first time Olympians were offered condoms were at the Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea in 1988, in efforts to raise awareness and prevent the spread of HIV.
