Female condoms? (Part two for the GUYS!)?

Actually gay men use this too. More pleasurable for the guy as you are still uncovered. Probably less sensation for the woman/man(bottom) And have heard it compared to F***ing a ziplock bag. But you can use oil based lubes as opposed to stictly water or silicone based with latex condoms.

I really don't believe its for something you are writing but I have heard of desperate (very crazy females) that buy there own non-lubricated condoms and stick holes in them with a needle so when there partner uses it the condom will leak. (In my opinion that is the quickest way to get an STD or for the condom to break)

Durex ultimate sensation is my favorite.  Feels almost as good as no condom.  Trojans are my least favorite, too tight, and you can't feel anything.  Lifestyles are okay.

WASHINGTON - The consumers group best known for rating cars and washing machines has turned its testing prowess to condoms to find out which ones measure up best and how other birth control methods compare.\n\nThe nonprofit Consumers Union says in a new guide to contraception that the seven top types of condoms they studied did not burst despite vigorous testing, and all models met international standards.\n\nBut results showed that the top brand, able to take the most punishment, was the Durex Extra Sensitive Lubricated Latex, according to the report.\n\nOther top-performers include the Durex Performax Lubricated, Lifestyles Classic Collection Ultra Sensitive Lubricated and TheyFit Lubricated.\n\nOf the many options available for pregnancy prevention, condoms remain the only method that also can help prevent sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV, which causes AIDS.\n\nThat’s a crucial function: HIV infects 110 Americans each day, at least half of them younger than 25. And concerns have evolved over some older sexually transmitted diseases, including gonorrhea, because they have become resistant to the standard drugs used to treat them.\n\nFor this report, we evaluated 23 kinds of latex condoms. We also purchased two types made of polyurethane, marketed to people allergic to latex.\n\nBecause there’s so much confusion over contraceptives, we also created the chart in A comparative guide with the facts about 17 birth-control methods, so that you can compare them and decide what’s best for you. And Birth-control choices details the latest developments in contraception.\n\nIn our tests, all latex condoms passed minimum industry standards (no such standards exist for polyurethane models). We found no correlation between performance and price, thickness, or the country of manufacture.\n\nBut some models were clearly stronger than others. We rated one model that Planned Parenthood distributes at its clinics as poor because its strength was so low compared with the rest. Here are the details:\n\nStrength differs. We test condoms by inflating them until they burst, an established predictor of real-world performance. The best had no premature breakage among the 120 samples we tested for each model. When inflated, they also averaged at least 38 liters of air. The worst, however, broke 18 of 120 times at volumes below our strength threshold of 25 liters.\n\nSize matters. Most models met minimum standards for length and thickness. But some samples of the Durex Extra Sensitive, Durex Performax, larger-size versions of TheyFit, and Trojan Magnum slightly exceeded the maximum recommended width and should be used only by men who require a larger width.\n\nFewer brands have spermicide. There’s no reason to choose spermicidal condoms over other kinds. They have no additional benefit in preventing pregnancy, have a shorter shelf life, and may cause urinary-tract infections in young women. Nonoxynol-9, a widely used spermicide, came under scrutiny in 2001 when a report from the World Health Organization warned that if used frequently, it may cause vaginal irritation and might increase the risk of contracting HIV.\n\nThough the amount of nonoxynol-9 on a spermicide-lubricated condom is smaller compared with the doses studied in the report, some condom makers, including Durex, have dropped models lubricated with nonoxynol-9. Others, including Trojan and LifeStyles, say they will keep selling them. A LifeStyles spokesman said the company is working with the Food and Drug Administration on the issue of nonoxynol-9.\n\nSpecial features abound. In our tests, condoms labeled “ultra thin” generally lived up to that claim; all but the Class Act Ultra Thin & Sensitive had thinner walls than most.\n\nThat’s not the only feature you’ll find. TheyFit condoms (formerly Viva 21st Century Individual Fit), sold at Condomania.com, come in 55 sizes. The Inspiral Lubricated has a raised, wraparound “seashell” tip. Two condoms we tested had

If they are only worried about not getting pregnant, he should use a lambskin condom.  They feel pretty much like you're not wearing a condom.\n\nLambskin does not protect against HIV or STDs.\n\nHe can buy polyeurythane condoms anywhere that latex condoms are sold.  They do not cost much more.  That will protect both he & his partner from pregnancy, HIV & STDs.  They are as effective as latex.\n\nIf he wants, he can put on a lambskin, and then a regular latex over that.  That will protect him from his allergy, and his partner from STDs, HIV, and pregnancy.  Keep in mind, this is the only time someone should wear two condoms.  \n\nYou shoud never wear two latex or two poly, or one latex with one poly condom.  They run a higher risk of breaking this way.

If you mean should a man have a male condom on and a woman use a female condom, then the answer is no! Using both types of condoms or two condoms at once increases your risks of the condom breaking. This increases your risks of unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. You should only use one condom whether it's one male condom or one female condom.\n\nIf you happen to be a homosexual male, then the answer is yes, both partners should wear condoms if both partners are pentrating the others body or recieving oral sex. I suppose the same would go for a female homosexual relationship, but using dental dams for oral sex might be better.\n\nI won't even get into the use of sex toys, but I'm sure you can exercise common sense with those.

The problem may not be in the brand of condom but in the size of the condom.  He may be using regular Trojans, but his endowment may require a Trojan Magnum or Magnum XL.  Research shows that Trojan Condoms are #1 in protecting against pregnancy and STDs, so trying another size may be the best thing.

No condoms aren't the safest alternative, abstinence is. If you don't have sex, you can't get STD's or anyone pregnant. However, if you're going to have sex, please please please wear a condom, always! \n\nAnd wear it the first time you put it in..none of that let's wait till I'm ready crap..you can get seriously sick that way.

Durex Avanti were a Godsend for me & the other half.\n\nYou can get them anwhere that sells Durex, but they do cost a few quid more.\n\nLike your chap, my other half is always happy to use condoms - but it wasn't great for either of us, he said it took away all sensation for him.\n\nAvanti are made of a different type of latex, it comes up to body temperature really quickly, and is thinner and stretchier than other types.  I can't feel it on him at all, and he's a100 times happier with it.

you could be right and then you got a big problem.  Go to your gyn and have it checked out and then ask if there is some alternative to latex condoms.  That is what most if not all the condoms on the market are made of. I have heard that they used to use lambskin or something like that  Ask you docotr or pharmacist about it.  Good Luck

you can buy condoms that are thicker, or he could wear two. Also there are excercizes that he can try, like masturbating himself and then stopping before he comes, and then starting again etc.

"What is the Female Condom?\nThe female condom is a polyurethane sheath or pouch about 17 cm (6.5 inches) in length. It is worn by a woman during sex. It entirely lines the vagina and it helps to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) including HIV.\n\nAt each end of the condom there is a flexible ring. At the closed end of the sheath, the flexible ring is inserted into the vagina to hold the female condom in place. At the other open end of the sheath, the ring stays outside the vulva at the entrance to the vagina. This ring acts as a guide during penetration and it also stops the sheath bunching up inside the vagina.\n\nThere is silicone-based lubricant on the inside of the condom, but additional lubrication can be used. The condom does not contain spermicide. The female condom should not be used at the same time as a latex male condom because the friction between the two condoms may cause the condoms to break.\n\nThe female condom has been available in Europe since 1992 and it was approved in 1993 by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is available in many countries, at least in limited quantities, throughout the world. The female condom carries various brand names in different countries including, FC Female Condom, Reality, Femidom, Dominique, Femy, Myfemy, Protectiv' and Care."\n\n"What are the benefits?\nOpportunity for women to share the responsibility for the condoms with their partners \nA woman can use the female condom if her partner refuses to use the male condom \nThe polyurethane, the material the female condom is made of, is less likely to cause an allergic reaction than a male latex condom. It is not clear whether latex or polyurethane condoms are stronger – there are studies suggesting that either is less likely to break. With both types, however, the likelihood of breakage is very small, if used correctly. \nThe female condom will protect against most STDs and pregnancy if used correctly \nIt can be inserted up to 8 hours before intercourse so it does not interfere with the moment \nThe polyurethane is thin and conducts heat well so sensation is preserved \nThe female condom can be used with oil-based lubricants \nNo special storage requirements are needed because polyurethane is not affected by changes in temperature and dampness. The expiry date for female condoms is 5 years from the date of manufacture."\n\nPics:\n\nhttp://images.google.com/images?q=female+condom&hl=en

you can buy condoms basically anywhere.  Usually I get mine at the drug store like Longs right where the pharmacy area is. If you feel weird about asking someone who works there, just look around and you'll find them easily.  Maybe you can take a friend with you so you feel more comfortable!!
