PROTECTIVE PANTY/BIKINI WITH FLAVOR RIDGE FOR GUIDED LICKING

Abstract

A protective panty/bikini has a shaped panel of moisture-resistant material that closely conforms to at least a portion of the crotch of a woman. The shaped panel has a waist opening, a right lea opening, a left leg opening, and a crotch portion that extends over the woman's crotch, closely covering the vulva and the anus. A flavor ridge runs centrally along the crotch portion, the flavor ridge extending over at least the vulva and the anus. The protective panty/bikini provides an erotic female garment that is convenient to wear, that accentuates womanly curves, and that provides a protective barrier against transmission of sexually transmitted disease during cunnilingus for both the wearer and her sexual partner. Additionally, the flavor ridge imparts a pleasant flavor, while providing lingual and tactile guidance to the woman's partner during cunnilingus in an environment with possibly limited visual guidance.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates generally to female garments, and more particularly to prophylactic garments for enhancing oral erotic interactions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As part of an erotic interaction, it is common for female participants to wear under-garments that can enhance a sexual experience. Common examples of female under-garments that provide increased sexual titillation are: bras, panties, bikinis, and G-strings.

A panty and a bikini bottom are both articles of female underwear that include a narrow strip of fabric or other material that passes between a woman's thighs and connects to a waistband. Women often wear panties or bikini bottoms to increase a sense of erotic excitement between themselves and their partners while engaging in sexual activities.

Panties and bikini bottoms can increase a woman's attractiveness in several ways. Because a panty or a bikini bottom is a skimpy and very revealing article of clothing, much of the woman's skin is exposed, enhancing her erotic appeal. In addition, panties and bikini bottoms are often tailored to accentuate the curves of a woman's body, and panties and bikini bottoms can include feminine decorations such as feminine colors, or lacey fabrics.

Panties and bikini bottoms are usually made from materials such as cotton, Rayon®, polyester, and/or Spandex®. Unfortunately, these materials will allow the passage of bodily fluids containing bacteria and viruses, and therefore typically panties and bikini bottoms cannot serve as a prophylactic undergarment for preventing the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) such as syphilis and chlamydia (bacterial), and herpes, hepatitis C, and HPV (viral).

An example of a prophylactic undergarment is taught in Wallace, US Patent Application 2006/0042639 A1. Wallace teaches a prophylactic undergarment for use by a female wearer that includes an elastomeric portion that reduces the transmission of STDs. However, the woman's garment of Wallace has disadvantages. For example, the garment includes two prophylactic tubes configured to be inserted into the woman's vaginal canal and anus. Therefore the garment is difficult to put on, and may be uncomfortable to wear because of the two intrusive tubes.

SUMMARY

The protective panty/bikini of the invention provides an erotic female under-garment that is convenient to wear, visually appealing, accentuates the wearer's natural womanly curves, and provides protection against transmission of STDs for both the wearer and her sexual partner during oral sex.

In addition, the protective panty/bikini of the invention includes a flavor ridge that runs along a central axis of the crotch that provides a pleasant scent and flavor, while also providing lingual and/or tactile guidance to the mouth and/or tongue of the wearer's partner while he/she performs cunnilingus in a dark environment.

The protective panty/bikini of the invention can include a panel of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) (similar to Saran Wrap®) that acts as a protective barrier during cunnilingus to protect against transmission of STDs between the wearer and her partner.

Another benefit of the protective flavored panty of the invention is that it is disposable.

A general aspect of the invention is a protective panty/bikini for snug wear on a lower trunk of a woman, the lower trunk having a right leg, a left leg, a waist, and a crotch, the crotch having a vulva and an anus. The protective panty/bikini includes: a shaped panel of moisture-resistant material configured to closely conform to at least a portion of the crotch, the shaped panel having: a waist opening configured to surround the waist, a right leg opening configured to surround the right leg, a left leg opening configured to surround the left leg, and a crotch portion configured to extend between the right leg opening and the left leg opening that is also configured to closely cover the vulva and the anus; and at least one flavor ridge applied centrally along the crotch portion so as to extend over at least the vulva and the anus.

In some embodiments, the protective panty/bikini further includes: a waistband configured to extend circumferentially around the waist opening; a right leg band configured to extend circumferentially around the right leg opening; and a left leg band configured to extend circumferentially around the left leg opening.

In some embodiments, the shaped panel is made from low-density polyethylene (LDPE).

In some embodiments, the shaped panel is made from latex.

In some embodiments, the shaped panel is made from a material that is impervious to fluids.

In some embodiments, the waistband includes a band of elastic silicone; the right leg band includes a band of elastic silicone; and the left leg band includes a band of elastic silicone.

In some embodiments, the at least one flavor ridge includes at least one of: a flavoring agent, a souring agent, and a sweetening agent.

In some embodiments, the protective panty/bikini further includes: a protective strip removably attached along the at least one flavor ridge, the protective strip being configured to protect freshness of the at least one flavor ridge while the at least one protective strip is attached to the at least one flavor ridge, and to be removable so as to leave the at least one flavor ridge substantially in place after the protective strip is removed.

In some embodiments, the at least one flavor ridge includes a pair of flavor ridges symmetrically placed along a central axis of the crotch portion.

In some embodiments, the protective panty/bikini further includes: a backing layer, the backing layer applied centrally along the crotch portion, the flavor ridge being applied centrally along the backing layer.

In some embodiments, the backing layer includes a coating of light adhesive that improves the adhesion of the backing layer to the crotch portion.

In some embodiments, the backing layer includes a smooth front-facing surface that retains its shape so as to facilitate licking of the flavor ridge off of the backing layer.

In some embodiments, the protective panty/bikini is packaged in a folded condition.

In some embodiments, the at least one flavor ridge folds once or twice when packaged in the folded condition.

In some embodiments, the at least one flavor ridge is flavored to resemble at least one of: lemon, lime, orange, cherry, pineapple, grape, blueberry, licorice, chocolate, cotton candy.
