and this one
and this one too
and also this one
condomi are the only ones ive ever used, got a three pack. Summary:
first one popped (it was on correctly)
second one, was the most painful orgasm ever. felt like someone was holding a thumb over it. didnt pop that time though.
third one, we were fed up so decided to use it as a balloon (well, gf did )
hope not all condoms are like that but it was a truly horrid experience. having them on was uncomfortable, it felt like a laggy band was round at the bottom and it was cutting my circulation off.
Think that's how Durex Extra Safe work. They break, they always break, and you always feel them break, so you stop, and don't end up having penetrative sex.
Best contraception ever. Guy who invented them was a genius.
Btw - the guy on the durex condom packet (the one with the silhouette of the man and woman walking into the distance), is actually my mate. He's a graphic designer, and was working for durex on their marketing and new packaging. When they did the photo for the packet, the guy they were going to use was too small, and the girl on the piccie towered over him. So at 6ft 4, my mate was called in out of the shadows and is the man on the packet. Interesting but crap fact of the day!!!!!
are they easy to use? and how do they feel for both the girl and the guy?
my boyfriend hates using condoms (and cant really see the point since i take the pill) but i like the extra security of it. wondering if maybe the female condom might be a compromise?
they aren't very reliable
Not against std's its not.
Exactly. You only just use the pill if you and your partner have been checked for STIs.
Yes, they still protect against std/i's. I think they are more difficult to use than standard condom's, but have only ever used them once with my girlfriend.
Wouldn't want to be that 1% though. Plus, the pill is that effective if taken exactly correctly every day. From my various pamphlets inside my pills, Dr's, reading, bla bla bla, most women take it at 95% effectivness. my man is an overprotective nut and its rubbed off onto me.
I was wondering that as well. I've always found the condomi ones to be the easiest to roll on, and the most comfortable to wear. Horses for courses perhaps.
never thought of that. thats hilarous.
As I've not heard of them.
Jif peanut butter
But thats as close as I know.
All I can think of over here is jiffy bag or Jif (now called Cif, I think we where the only ones to call it Jif) household cleaning products.
Thats the kind I use. Grand.
Oh, one thing I've learned, theres some odd brand named comdonms out there and on the packaging, somewhere little, they will say something along the lines of "a durex condom" but its not actualyl a durex brand. And thats when theres a batch of condoms that don't make it thru that specific companies tests so they'll sell them cheap to others, who will in turn package and sell them to you. So watch out.
I used to like the Durex topaz - because I could get them on without looking like an idiot in the process. In retrospect, they were not on properly, but they were on in less than two minutes.
:eek2: A condom takes 5 seconds to put on
you exagerate. It's more like 20 seconds without complications - but I suppose it may be quicker on the circumcised penes you are used to.
Of course, it's only the in last 3 months I've found ones I can put on without complications
