Great Giz in the Sky

What is the future of human civilization? The data, its structures and forms, numbers and digitalization of every possible aspect around, for the convenience of keeping those data finally conjuring up a big-data, a post post-modern feature with a prototypicalty of the black-holes in the space as Stephen Hawking had found them to be.

The latest feather in the crown of gizmo-progress is the advent of the world’s first digitalized smart condom, ‘I-CON’, engineered by British Condoms which is a simple electronic ring just to put on. The purpose is neither to be used as an external contraceptive device nor as one to enhance any pleasure, but only to get connected to a

smart phone via bluetooth to keep the track-records of the calories burnt, thrusts given, numbers of postures explored, and every minute detail that one never thought of, while mating a partner and having some blissful moments of life. The details of the collected data can further be linked to and posted at the social networks for public or private sharing. Already millions are booked in the pre-launch status and Cupid knows, how may furthermore would be booked post-launch.

There is no problem with the advance of science and technology. The critical part is that, only whenever it starts to explore and reach some limits, it compromises with the nature around. And this gross advancement underlines now that man's purpose of mating has gone through a sea-change that any moral or humane scale cannot fathom. It used be out of some human bondage; it used to be biological to procreate; it used to be relaxing. Now, this game of pleasure which is turning gradually an aspect to be measured with minute scales at every step of it, British Condoms claim the USP of this new device is to be defined  with specific data as “how masculine you are”. I wonder masculinity no longer is measured through a mighty heart to stand the tests of life, to love and be loved by the nearest and dearest ones. The whole thing focuses on something exorbitantly inhuman which goes beyond any moral touch. 

Sometimes I find people using the latest version of i-phones, but hardly do they know how to use it or lack the responsibility of handling such a powerful device. It, like a diamond ring, stud, wrist-watch, leather-shoes and many more expensive props, is something to be showed off only.  Even when we wear a low-rise jeans, the objective is to show off the brand of what we are putting on underneath. Now this device ‘I-CON’ is in advent like a smart watch or a calorie watch. A day is not far away that the males would go crazy about showing off the device they are wearing with their stings rolled out. Tattered jeans are in the vibe. How about some pair of jeans without the zip? People would dream of trying 'em out. Someday, who knows, males would fashion their most secret organ to be decorated with  only gizmos, with diamond stud and would be humping in the air to produce false data to get posted with expectations of hundreds of 'like'-s in the 'slambook' (a notional predilection of a post-gen version of 'facebook'). Ironically, for real, they will be having none to mate, even.
