im not psssing all over the concept (so to speak ) but giving feedback from your targeted market that is looking at the product and making a decision to spend my money on it or not

as with condoms, one size does not fit all and it seems one she-p doesnt suit all either

good luck

no worries! (of course it - unlike the condom caths - is trimmable to fit)

what was your feedback? Price mostly? Or just not interested in a stick on at this juncture?

FWIW, I have zero monetary or whatnot involvement in this product (other than buying one), I did not help design it or develop it, I just think it's a cool idea so am promoting it...

heheh - my feedback was im anti shaving (i wax but im also scared of the brazillian-ouch!) and shaving is one of the things you need to do for the she-p apparently

and im not questioning your motives in this product at all, was just making comment about the use of it

good luck!!

Forgive my intrusion, but I have to wonder (on behalf of my wife..) - it appears there's a pocket of air in there, which would compress at depth.

a) Does this cause discomfort via suction as the pressure increases?
b) does this compression pose a risk of breaking the skin seal?

Do you overcome this by filling the empty space with water before the dive, or is it pretty much a non-issue?

Also, once duly relieved, does a portion remain to slosh around in that pocket?

Glue??

You can't just strap it on then?

Yeah, you're right . . . But I didn't BUY the dry suit until I tried it! I'm being more liberal than that with this; if you and Heather try it and it works, I'm there.
