Who says partners with extra marital affairs will not be caught?

There is now a new way to catch infidelity among cheating partners after an Italian sexologist has developed a new version of the chastity belt.

Dr. Mandrillo Cirillo, also known as Dr. Seduction or Dr. Thirakmisuk, said he expects that this improved version of the chastity belt would find a market among suspicious spouses.

Designed to attach to a mans or womans underpants, the timer of the chastity belt records the frequency and the length of time the undergarments are removed.

The belt can be taken off if the person would urinate, but its timer will record the minutes once he or she takes off the belt.

“If ones underwear would be taken off for about 45 minutes or so, that certainly needs an explanation saying that urinating would only take 5 minutes. This will surely be a hit as couples who want to display their fidelity will wear it,” Cirillo said while demonstrating the use of the chastity belt.

The cigarette packet-sized contraption, which records the opening and closing of the garter, is a reassuring gesture on the part of the husband or wife having a business trip or vacation with friends.

“At the end of the trip, spouses would have a record as to how many times their partners have taken off their undies or at times their partner might have been subjected to temptation,” Cirillo said.

The belt, which is not yet sold in the Philippines, costs at around P2,500, and can be used for years and as often as the couples would want.

Cirillo said he is expecting a positive response from the government of this invention, as this would also prevent the spreading of AIDS disease in the country.

Cirillo said he also wants to develop a more advanced device that would sound an alarm on a partner’s mobile phone once the belt is taken off for more then five minutes.

He said the device is perfectly possible following his talks with telecommunications engineers. “And if this would happen, this would surely be a hit in the market for suspicious couples,” he said.
