    According to the article 10.000 were provide for 3.000 people, while in Paris 300.000 were provided for 10.500 people, so about 10 times as much. Nothing to do with hornyness, a lot to do with someone in charge being either a cheapskate or a prude.

    Also, since 1988 condoms are provided for free to the athletes, and since 1988 the press feels they need to report on this. Yes we get it, these are just normal people doing normal people things.

      Nah, it’s much worse than that… they’re young, beautiful people, at the peak of fitness and health, having the best time of their lives yet in serious need of de-stressing due to the competitive nature of the event (yet unable to do drugs and alcohol due to needing to be in top shape and anti-doping regulations), all bunched together in hotels.

      Three condoms per person is evidently way too few to contain that.

    “In Paris the athletes received 300,000 condoms — two per day each— but the numbers for these Winter Games were significantly lower: not even 10,000,” La Stampa’s report states.

    In Paris, the beds started breaking.

    this has been an ongoing meme since the invention of the Olympics

    somebody did a reverse NASA with the tampons here. the correct amount of condoms to order for the Olympics is probably something like (the number that somebody could use if they were fucking 24/7 the entire event) x (the number of attendees) x (quadruple it for good measure)

      Also the article mentions they have a logo on them.

      I don’t know about you but, given the opportunity, I’d bring home Olympic condoms as a souvenir whether I used any or not.

    A bunch of fit young people pushed together into a tiny village. Why wouldn’t you have literal truck loads of protection? They’re very obviously going to fuck like rabbits.
