1. A condom comprising: a non-porous sheath member having an open end, a closed end and a barrel extending therebetween;two or more ribs disposed along said barrel, each said rib having an outer portion and an exit pathway through said outer portion; anda reservoir affixed to and circumferentially disposed about said barrel, said at least two ribs each being in direct fluid communication with said reservoir, said reservoir containing a lubricant for flow of said lubricant into said ribs. 2. A condom as defined in claim 1 in which said at least two ribs each include a multiplicity of unidirectional valve elements therewithin for directing the flow of said lubricant within respective said rib toward respective said exit pathway and inhibiting flow of said lubricant within respective said rib away from respective said exit pathway. 3. A condom as defined in claim 1 in which said exit pathway consists of a plurality of holes. 4. A condom as defined in claim 1 in which said reservoir is spiral-shaped. 5. A condom as defined in claim 1 in which said reservoir is proximate said open end. 6. A condom as defined in claim 1 comprising a multiplicity of said reservoirs. 7. A condom as defined in claim 1 in which said at least one rib extends in a ring-like manner about said barrel. 8. A condom comprising: a non-porous sheath member having an open end, a closed end and a barrel extending therebetween;at least one rib disposed along said barrel and having an outer portion and an exit pathway through said outer portion, said at least one rib including a multiplicity of unidirectional valve elements therewithin for directing the flow of a lubricant within said rib toward said exit pathway and inhibiting flow of said lubricant within said rib away from said exit pathway; anda reservoir affixed to and circumferentially disposed about said barrel, said at least one rib being in fluid communication with said reservoir for flow of said lubricant into said at least one rib. 9. A condom as defined in claim 8 in which said reservoir is proximate said open end. 10. A condom as defined in claim 8 in which said sheath member includes an opening disposed between said open end and said reservoir. 11. A condom as defined in claim 8 in which said reservoir is spiral-shaped. 12. A condom as defined in claim 8 comprising a multiplicity of said reservoirs. 13. A condom comprising: a non-porous sheath member having an open end, a closed end and a barrel extending therebetween;at least two ribs disposed along said barrel, each said rib having an outer portion and an exit pathway through said outer portion, each said rib including a multiplicity of unidirectional valve elements therewithin for directing the flow of said lubricant within respective said rib toward respective said exit pathway and inhibiting flow of said lubricant within respective said rib away from respective said exit pathway, each said exit pathway consisting of a plurality of holes; anda reservoir affixed to and circumferentially disposed about said barrel proximate said open end, said reservoir containing a lubricant and being in direct fluid communication with each said rib for flow of said lubricant into said ribs responsive to external pressure applied to said reservoir.
