Just in case you were wondering, mate, it's a bad idea to use a plastic carrier bag as a contraceptive. This has been confirmed by a young Vietnamese couple who were having sex for the first time.

The two college students were too shy to go out and buy some condoms, so the boy attached the plastic bag to himself instead.

Vietnam's Tuoi Tre newspaper reported: "As the plastic bag was rough and lacked elasticity and lubrication, the young couple ended up scratching their genitals to the point of bleeding.

"'The lovebirds underwent a thorough check-up and were prescribed with antibiotics and disinfectants for their injuries."

According to doctors, it's a bad idea to use plastic bags as johnnies as they're 'not designed for the function'. No shit.

A recent study conducted with 2,700 undergraduates in Hanoi by the Hanoi Medical University and Hanoi Medical College found that only 16 percent of students have had sexual intercourse - with only a third of them using condoms. A quarter of those surveyed also said they found the idea of buying condoms embarrassing.

It has yet to be confirmed whether the couple have recovered from their injuries, but hopefully they've learnt their lesson and had the courage to face the cashier this time.
