I don't see how that will provide much protection from STDs. It may prevent male-to-female transmission of HIV; but it won't protect at all for female-to-male HIV transmission and for most other STDs.

Sure it would, assuming it actually stays on. Assuming the male doesn't have a cut on his dick, it should prevent fluid-borne viruses (including HIV) and bacteria. Of course it won't do anything to prevent skin to skin virus transmission, but neither do regular condoms (other than reducing the amount of skin available for contact with the female).

It doesn't fully cover the glans (head) of the penis, so it won't protect against infection. Also, if you still have a foreskin, it's not going to cover that either on an erect penis and the foreskin is one of the most vulnerable areas for infection transmission (hence why removing a foreskin protects against STDs)
