That very well could be it, Ashley. While we have met with somewhere around 20 to 30 couples, we have only played with a small handfull. With the exception of one instance (which was oral only) all were long term married couples and I don't know how to describe it but the condom issue was never there. Granted if we really liked a couple that were insistant upon condoms, we would have no problem with it. We always carry our own each time we venture out, just in case and we do use them with one specific couple as the wife and my husband are both still 'fertile'.
I am not against condom usage and I don't mean to come across that way if I am. During my single years (between marriages) and for the time when even my husband and I were dating, condoms were a must for me or there was no play going to happen. But at that time, I was having casual encounters. I really knew nothing about the person I had sex with other than I lusted for them. I respect those that choose to do so and fully understand it. I just happen to think that sex without the 'helmet' is a whole lot more fun and we are pretty particular about who we have sex with and seek couples that are as particular as we are. Those that we have played with have had very limited partners and one of those couples have been playing for well over 20 years.
