Sex, Games and Olympic Village life

It is maybe only human nature that people, when placed together, procreate to some extent, but that libidinous cocktail means London 2012 officials were right if the experiences of Sydney and Atlanta were anything to make 150,000 condoms -- a record for the modern Games -- available to the Village's frisky inhabitants, according to CNN's source.

“There’s a lot of sex going on,” said soccer star Hope Solo, who won gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. “With a once-in-a-lifetime experience, you want to build memories, whether it’s sexual, partying or on the field.”

For the two weeks the Olympians are all huddled together, the Village becomes one big sex-fest, Solo says.
