 So, I found this article on CNN, apparently saree weavers in Varanasi are using lubricated condoms to make the weaving process easier. So, they rub the condoms onto the spindles to keep them moving more fluidly and they say it is so effective, it makes the spindles so fluid that it's cutting down the weaving time by several hours, plus they use the condoms to polish the gold and silver thread. Because according to Bachilal Moria, the weaver who they interviewed, the lubricant does not stain the silk and the reason they are using the condoms is because they are getting them for free from the local clinics. Now, I know that's not the best use of the condoms but dude, imagine if a condom can do so much for that huge big spindle and make it move so effectively and fluidly, think what it could do for you.
