Former UFC fighter and current WSOP lightweight Waylon Lowe has been through painful injuries in the octogon, but none are worse than the injury he had while having sex a little under a year ago.
According to the Philadelphia Daily News, Lowe filed a lawsuit against a sex shop in Philadelphia called The Mood on May 14. That’s when Lowe purchased a gel called Kama Sutra Pleasure Balm Prologing gel in order to decrease sensitivity and increase sexual performance. The product left his genitals “permanently disfigured” and resulted in “catastrophic and permanent damage.”
“This is a very private, but very significant loss for a man who is very vital in so many other aspects,” Lowe’s attorney Thomas R. Kline said. “This is a man who literally makes his living avoiding injury; he knows how to protect himself. Yet he wasn’t provided with the most basic, simple instructions to protect himself from this product. If it could happen to him, it could happen to anyone.”
Lowe is suing the Mood Shop and Kama Sutra’s gel maker for over $50,000 of damages. The company claims it’s a false lawsuit and is “flabbergasting” saying that they have sold over 1 million of their products and not one person has had a problem so far.
Marla Lee, the president of Kama Sutra definitely had something to say: “This product has been offered for over 40 years without incident of any kind, so it’s a bit confusing that he would have this kind of response to it,” Lee said. “The active ingredient [benzocaine] is quite common. It’s used in children’s teething products, so it’s probably pretty safe if it’s used for children.”
