Nothing surprises me these days. If they (unscrupulous China manufacturers) can make low cost fake milk powders and eggs out of industrial synthetics and dye, what else is sacred if the products are higher profit yield items. Whole generation of good reputation china made products down the drain over these past years. I can't help these days to hesitate whenever I pick up a China made product or fruits grown there. Scary. :o

The worst will come if one day ARVs are made in China and you wonder if it's chicken feed you're also shooting up your veins. Or how about a colored dye dildo that self destructs upon entry. Yikes! :o ;D ;)

I don't know about you guys but i don't shoot up my ARVs, I take them orally. 'Shooting up' where I live means injecting.  :o

And it doesn't claim to kill HIV, the claim is 'Destvoy HIV' - sounds Eastern European.  ;D

It sounds to me like one of the active ingredients in this stuff is N-9 (nonoxynol-9), a spermicide that was once also promoted as an hivicide. (LOL, I made that word up - hivicide.  Like it? ;D )

(Oh, I remember now, the correct word is micorbicide.  I prefer hivicide,  just because I'm strange like that.)

The problem with N-9 as a microbicide is that it irritates the lining of the anus/vagina, making hiv transmission more likely. It might damage hiv in a test-tube (thereby rendering it unable to infect), but it actually facilitates transmission, so any virus that escapes being damaged has an easier route to infection.

N-9 is sometimes an ingredient in lubes, or gells to be used with the diaphram or cervical cap aimed at the heterosexual market, and it's also often an ingredient in lubricated condoms. It's always best to check your condoms and make sure they don't have N-9 on them, especially if you're a positive person topping a negative bottom. (or to translate into straightese, a positive man having intercourse with a negative woman.)

Info on N-9:

http://www.global-campaign.org/whatsup_with_n9.htm

http://www.webmd.com/sex/news/20071218/spermicide-nonoxynol-9-gets-fda-warning

http://gaylife.about.com/cs/physicalhealth/a/nonoxynol.htm

Even if this stuff doesn't have N-9 in it, it sounds to me like a disaster waiting to happen on so many fronts. One, people might rely on it to stop hiv transmission and end up positive. Two, it sounds like no matter what the ingredients, there's bound to be something in there that would irritate the lining of the anus/vagina. I mean if it allegedly "shrinks" the vagina, there must be something pretty weird in there, possibly a drying agent.

No matter how you look at it, it's just TOO WEIRD.

Totally.. China's problem is going to be massive when it surfaces.

Actually it also claims that the product is approved by the State Population Planning Committee; very likely not an authorized product.

In Mainland China they do have a massive counterfeit condom problem, and even when they do use proper ones they don't know how. I have heard stories of folks wearing condoms but just use the body lotion in hotels as lube. There are also some "clinics" claiming to offer HIV immunity shots, as it turned out they were just vitamin.

The most incredible personal experience I have encountered is that some years ago a guy I picked up on line told me he could top bare and there'd be no risk of getting any STD as long as he washed his penis afterward with toothpaste. At that time I was still sensible enough to ask him to leave...

I can't see much detail in the photo, but the proper way to shrink it is (according to my father):

Douche with sugar, water and alum with chicken; it will become sweet, tight, wet and finger-lickin' good.

I imagine this may or may not work with boys.

Funny you should ask NG (by the way, how are you these days... ;) )..

The phrase can literally mean "shrink cunt". As in many of those extremely bad translations you find in China someone who doesn't know a word of English just typed in the Chinese characters in a translation software and copied whatever words that came out randomly.

The first character is "su" in Mandarin, it can mean shrink but in this context it should mean "tighten". The second word "yan" refers to the female genital in general. So if I have to translate the phrase it should be "tighten vagina".

Not being a female nor a straight man I have no idea what it means though I would think it's suppose to interest the, er, penetrating male's pleasure? I also have no idea one can tighten it by using a cream...

Anyway this product seems like a total health hazard ..

To the best of my knowledge, there is no cream that would tighten the vagina. The only tried and tested method I know of for achieving tightness is doing Kegel exercises. (Guys, you should also look at that link as men can do Kegels too because they will also help with urinary and bowel incontinence.)

In some societies in Africa, women will make up a concoction of herbs that dry the vagina, making it seem  tighter for the man. Unfortunately, this practice has been implicated in the facilitation of hiv transmission. (and this is why I mentioned a "drying agent" in my previous post.)

I seriously doubt this is a government authorised product. Think about all of the crap sold in the USA int he vitamin aisle. They have to be very careful to not actually say that it does cure or treat something, but they do everything they can to suggest it. I think a long time ago I was reading a denialist/dissident forum and they were touting this product that sent electrical currents through your body and supposedly killed HIV. It was by some quack-bitch named "Hulda Clark". And look at all the crap that Dr. Quackola touts. He has been chastised by the FDA a few times for making false and misleading claims.

However, I wouldn't completely dismiss a product just because it is from a developing country. There are many products approved in other countries that aren't approved in USA or the EU, but that work perfectly fine. There is this product from Russia called "Dimebon", which they are actually moving along to phase III clinical trials for Alzheimer's Disease treatment.
