mmm'kay, so as the title states, condoms suck imo. not that I dont want to use them, but it goes from like 100% feeling to -10%, almost like i dunked my penis in a vat of novacane(sp?) gel..... wondering if anyone knows of any condoms that add pleasure for a guy or somethin, or am i doomed to no-fun-regular-condom-lovin?


thx muchos!

Get the thinner Japanese condoms with the bigger ends so there is more slippage ad slideage. Much better feeling in my opinion. Drugstore condoms suck.

I agree.

But I also sympathize with his hate for condoms. But as the saying goes: "If ya don't wear a hat, might as well fuck a bat."

Meh, rubbers just require a little change in style.
Honestly, if thats much of problem, don't have sex and start up a healthy habit of jerking off :P

Grace, Too

I've never managed to cut down the time it takes to put one on. I'm uncircumcized and I find that adds to the challenge. It's annoying because it's almost like half time at the football game. You get all horny and ready to go and then it's like, "okay, time out" get it out, put it on, lube, aaaaaaaaaand we're back! Myself I just get the drugstore ones. WHen first buying condoms, I learned that there are different sizes, after trying to put on the smaller siz and cutting all the circulation off my dick. Ah youthful ignorance.

Splurge and get natural lambskin ones, much better than latex... but make sure you use a spermicidal lube...

Lambskin condoms are NOT reccomended for preventing STDs ... only pregnancy. You should also use a spermicide with any condom.

Bah, I like the fact that I can go for *much* longer when using a condom.. It dosent bother me at all, infact I think it's almost *too* sensitive without it.
The added sense of security it provides me is great aswell.. Just wear it, or get a wife as YKK said.

Please stop with the "1337" talk. You're making my IQ go down.

If you want an alternative, and she's already on depo, she can try a diaphragm. It's more work for her, but promise her that you'll give her 110% if she's willing to do it for your sake. It's unfortunate that there's still no other reliable form of non-permanent male contraception.

Suave

In your situation I'd be MORE worried about STDs than babies. Just because you don't think she's ever had sex with another guy doesn't mean she doesn't have any STDs. You might have a latent one as well.

prefect

Trojan's Poly-urethane ultra thin "Supra" condoms are what I recommend. Granted, they're a bit more expensive, but well worth it. Alot of guys have said that it feels like wearing nothing at all, and I have to agree with that.

Aside from that, learn some new positions, and figure out what works for both of you.
If you're just sticking with one boring position that doesn't do anything for you because you're wearing a condom, then I'd say you have bigger fish to fry.

As the late great SAM KINISON on his comedy release album "Have You Seen Me Lately"(track 2) ranted,"Do we like to wear rubbers guys???? NO< WE FUCKIN HATE THEM!!!!! OH OH OHHHHHHH...... They're a pain in the ass they are unromantic.... just sad, it's gross and your fuckin dick doesn't understand it's saying 'what's going on boss are we robbin a bank? What's the ski mask about, huh? what is she that ugly?'.... You feel like you just ate a KFC snack pack, the little wetnap.. same mental image If you don't trust the pussy why fuck the pussy? What are you trying to prove?"

Sorry for threadjack but SAMMY was the ultimate on this topic.

That site says "Unlike latex condoms, lambskin condoms are not recommended for STD prevention because they are porous and may permit passage of viruses like HIV, hepatitis B and herpes."

I'm curious, how does this prevent pregnancy, but not STDs? Is the sperm larger than the viruses, and thus can't slip through the tiny holes in the lambskin condoms?

SecretMethod70

yes, they are.

kimono brand condoms are thinner and i've found easier to use somehow...also..lambskin condoms..isnt that made from like the guts of teh lamb? persoanlly i wouldnt want to let that inside me...and diaphrams are the most annoying contraptions on teh face of the earth..sponges are easier...and they are comeing out with a pill for men. and zxe...she lost her virginity to you but are you the first guy she gave head to? or first person to be fair..because you can get stds from that too...and depo isnt 100% at all...

I don't prefer to use condoms, but I will whenever I'm not 100% sure that the situation is safe. I much rather prefer the feeling of no barriers, although if you aren't looking to get a person pregnant (who isn't on the pill), it can create a bit of a hassle right before you are "finished." From what I was told by the last woman I was with, she loved being able to feel the real parts without condom, and that sometimes those (rubbers, I mean) just got in the way of her own pleasure.

Personally, I hate the way condoms feel when you put them on. Maybe the last ones I got were a bit too small, because they were more tight that I expected around the base, which led to a bit of tension slippage, like trying to pull a rubber band down a cone, I guess would be the best analogy.

FeeJss

I dont mind condoms too much. I know I dont want a kid so if you think about it, condoms are a must (for this point in my life).

splck

I dislike using them just like the next guy. I started using extra-large ultra-thin a few years ago and can honestly say they're not too bad. I wouldn't waste my money on the cheap drugstore brands.

Ok, that's too funny and uncannily like my own situation.

I'm uncircumcized too and putting the condom on feels exactly like the analogy given by ukej. It's not sexy or romantic struggling with the condom while your girl looks on with a bemused expression.

Shizukana

dDefine "cheap drug store brands?"

I don't mind condoms. I'd prefer them all day long over the alternative! And there's SO much less of a mess with condoms than going in raw. Easier cleanup, and it's fairly safe with proper usage... if she's on the pill, and you're using condoms, then you can pretty much guarantee not having a surprise nine months later... and even if she's not, it's still a good percentage play.

They do kill sensation, but if you get thinner condoms such as Kimono or the Durex ones that are more sensitive... they're not nearly as bad. Plus, a little less sensitivity isn't ALWAYS bad... especially if you're the type of guy that wants his woman to orgasm multiple times during sex.

I have had a few brands that I simply couldn't stand, but if you can't stand a condom, then you need to be trying other ones, not writing off all of them. Go to a sex store that sells many many different types, and ask the sales people there - they are typically fairly competant in their suggestions, especially if they've been working there for a while and are the least bit talkative with their customers.

I feel for you. Condoms truly are teh suck. I've never came once when wearing condoms.

I've been the slave to them up untill this last week. Gotta love BC

skinnymofo

ive only ever used condoms myself so i dont know what im missing. My girl friend goes nuts when on birth control and is allergic to spermacides. shes plenty wet all the time though so weve yet to have to stop for lube its just getting them out of the package while fooling around and then all set.
You want a pain in the ass- caress brand are mean bastards for packaging. wrapped 3x from box to rubber. and they cut off circulation, damn those free/25cent machine condoms
