I like to think that I defer to others when I feel I'm out of my realm of knowledge. But I can't possibly see how that is either (1) effective or (2) not-insulting to the recipient. "Here, you can't be trusted to buy these yourself, have a free one so you can get back to work!"

It's about making condoms available for free to women for whom buying them is a non-trivial expense.

Lol wat? They give condoms to female entrepenuers in developing countries?

I found a combinator blog pot on the company, there's also an Oprah interview.

From the article: "Your condoms are currently in Whole Foods, Target, and CVS, and you’ve garnered tons of positive attention for your one-for-one business model that donates a condom to a female in a developing country for each one sold."
