"MAY I?" Condom Packaging is designed to enhance sexual consent in sexual activity so the box requires two people to open it together. It is difficult for one person to open the two bottom lids, but two people can easily open it.

The main body of the case is composed of two bottom lids, upper cover, and four corners. The four corners are used as a latch to fix the upper cover and the lower cover while being connected to the upper cover through a rubber band. The rubber band will prevent the removal of the four corners through multiple operations for one person. Only when two people pull the four corners at the same time will the bottom cover be opened, causing the condom to fall on the bed.

The use of the "MAY I?" Condom Packaging will be a novel and interesting experience. More importantly, two people's participation in the process of opening condom packaging reflects the respect for each other and the importance of sexual consent.
