Organizers of this year’s Olympics in Tokyo are putting a new meaning behind “look, but don’t touch.”
The Games are ordinarily a place where many young athletes mix, mingle and, naturally, get very close.
As they have since the 1980s, organizers ordered thousands of condoms so athletes can safely hook up. To be specific, Japanese organizers ordered 160,000 condoms to be handed out to athletes in the Olympic Village.
