Hey,
I'm a bit too embarrassed to go and buy condoms in "real life" (pathetic I know), but am I allowed to order online? I'm 17, so am I of legal age? I know sex is 16 and porn etc is 18 but what about this kind of thing?
If some things are allowed and others arn't, whats what?
Did try searching but couldn't find this info...
Hope I dont sound like a perv!
Thanks folks

Do you have a credit or debit card that you can use to place the order though?
Thanks for the info..
The reason i ask is that last time I attempted to get them from a vending machine i spent about 20 mins working myself up and then it didn't work lol... i'm just really embarrassed about this kind of thing, stupid really but i cant help it
Wanted to order from a sex shop due to discreet packaging as I think my dad might think it strange to get parcels from boots...
bought them this way before very discreet and your card will not have sex-shop or something like that on the payment i have ordered from these guys before

24 for 3.29 durex ribbed and so on i have included all his listings.
biding is private so nothing to worry about and feedback withheld.
I recomend them if you are embarased and imagine if your parents find your web history and sexshop,etc.
Lots of guys the same at this age.
But good that you prefer safe than sorry
Dunno if i'd want to buy from ebay, i'd rather buy from a proper shop. Arn't most shops discreet anyway?
What about other stuff, what can peeps buy @ 17 (obviously porn is not allowed) on the net? Can we only buy condoms?
Thanks
True. No-one will say anything to you about buying condoms. At least it shows you are responsible and are protecting yourself and your partner. You're not the only person having sex in the world.
Just walking to Boots and buy some, honestly they will not judge you I worked in Boots for the last 5 years part time and over the holidays. Everyone in my shop was very discreat and would just pick them up and scan them and pop them straight into a bag. If you don't want people to see ask for another bag, I never minded give people two bags, same for girls buying tampons. Otherwise have a non see through bag in your pocket which you can pop them in once they hand the bag over.
i remember being soooooo embarrassed about buying my first thong and now it's like 'got these in black?'. don't worry you're the only one who's going to be worried; noone will be thinking 'omg he's buying condoms'. just put them in your basket along with your other things and maybe know what you want so you don't have to spend ages picking which ones you want.
"if you want condoms just ask for them" and laughed
He went red put down the chocolate bar and walked out,
Is nobody going to mention the whole 'if youre not mature enough to buy condoms then you're not mature enough to use them' argument?...
That's what I was thinking .. if the poster ain't got what it takes to even buy condom's .. how's he even gonna get naked infront of a girl??
has anybody thought the poor lad was just embarassed to buy the chocolate :yes:
Na, I don't think they're complicated, just grab the end and roll it down so no air gets inside...
Don't worry about it mate, just go in the shop (pharmacy is a bit more discrete) pick them up, buy them and walk out. They don't care if you're buying condoms...everyone has to do it somehow!
