By 1700, lambskin condoms remained a popular alternative among elites, despite their limited protection against sexually transmitted infections. This reflects the historical attitudes towards contraception and sexual health in early modern Europe. The continued use of animal membrane condoms highlights the complexities of sexual practices and societal norms during this period.

Lambskin condoms continued to be an alternative in the 1700s, featuring prominently in 18th-century erotic and libertine poetry. Poets like John Wilmot contrasted luxury with efficacy, exploring themes of desire, intimacy, and the complexities of romantic relationships in their works.
