"Ready Two Go" safer sex kits

We love anything that makes safer sex not only easier, but stylish. After our post last week on the pros and cons of the "safe sex" license (our quotation marks), a reader brought our attention to Mad BJ, an organization founded to help stop the spread of HIV and STDs by offering funky safer sex kits under the name "Ready two Go." Each kit comes with a tin for safe storage and easy toting, one or two Lifestyles condoms, a little container of lube, and an STD information card (it's got "how to put on a condom," CDC numbers, a few statistics with a referral back to the website for more info and legal disclaimers--all in both English and Spanish). There's a whole slew of different style tins to choose from, all pretty cool-looking, some without the brand "Mad BJ" on it (thank god), and some special editions designed by artists like Ramones drummer Marky Ramone. And the best part: while they often work with organizations, you can buy your own kit online for less than five bucks! Refresher packs of kit materials (six condoms, lube packs and cards) are also available for around $7.00.
