Thousands of Olympic condoms to be auctioned - hopefully just the unused ones

I read that:
"A souvenir collector who somehow got his hands on 5,000 condoms due to be handed out to athletes at the Beijing 2008 Olympics, is set to sell them at auction.

After the games ended the man managed to snap up most of the 100,000 which hadn't been used by randy sports people.

Each of the Olympic prophylactics is in a branded wrapper which has the motto of the Beijing Games "faster, higher, stronger" printed in it.

The 5,000 condoms will now be sold as a single lot at a Chinese sporting auction on 29 November - with a starting price that works out to one yuan each (8p)."
Thankfully these are just the unused condoms but the slogan worries me: "faster, higher, stronger". I will go along with "higher" and "stronger", but does anyone really want their condom protected sex to be "faster"?
