...not to mention Madrid resident Gines Sanchez Gomez's even more innocuously named 'Protective Tube and Harness', filed for a patent to the US Patent Office as late as 2004. In the 21st century, that is, dear boys & girls. This state-of-the-art male chastity device involves bandaging the penis with adhesive tape and securing it with a padlock. Don't know about Madrid, but in my home town, we call this bondage.

A last word on the subject: less than a year ago, on 25 August 2009 (I repeat: 2009), A. Frank Miller and Doris L. Miller of Wellington, UT also filed for an 18-page patent with the US Patent Office, for their comprehensive 'Male Chastity Apparatus, Method, and System'. The design says it all. Male chastity is not dead, sisters. And brothers, of course.
