what kind of condom

[anotherway2liv]

We also use Ultra-Thin lubricated Crown condoms. They are feel great and the size is perfect for Mr.Anotherway2liv.

Can also get them super cheap ($3.95 Box of 15ea) at drugstore.com

We buy them by the Ziploc bag full from the "Dented Grocery" tent at the local flea market....

Ok, Not really.




Usually we stick with Trojan brand either lubricated or non-lubed.

We don't use condoms with each other but when we play with others he wears the lubricated Trojan Magnums. I'm allergic to condoms and figured it was the latex, but after seeing so many ladies allergic to the nonoxil-9 (<spelling?) I'm wondering if thats what I'm really allergic to. We always used the ones with that stuff just in case some of his guys slipped out of the condom. Hmmm, I think we'll have to check it out.

Sorry to sound so ignorant, but does "bare back" mean no condoms ... Oh can't stand condoms, which is why we are very particular in who we swing with.

Yes, that's what it means.
Hey, no need to apologize. We're all here to learn a bit aren't we?

I am really surprised that 36% of us swingers go bareback. Wow. That can't be right? Can it? Did they answer for sex with their partners or sex with others?

[admiral55]

I use the baseline Trojan series. I use prophylaxis for situations when there is a question about hygiene or when my partner can't or won't tell me the last time he or she was tested for STDs or AIDS. Otherwise, folks who have their act together, I'll ride bareback.

[CuriousInOregon]

I have Major Issues with condoms drying me out and leaving me Irritated even with all the lube in the world BUT I have found RIA ultra Sensitive Lubed Seems to be the best for me when we play with others. and a TON of extra lube

[The Big A]

We use Durex Ultra Thin...Sometimes with, sometimes without nonoxynyl-9. Depends on if the store has the spermicide ones..

[funcpl4life]

Various flavored for oral according to her preferences.
Mrs. FC4L carries trojan enz as a generic "just in case".
I use "They Fit" condoms from condomania. They are sooo much better. I'll use trojan enz for short term stuff and to protect toys or something but any extended play on me results in breakage.

We don't use N9 because of our most frequent play partners. He's so allergic to it that if I use a condom with N9 and then he does his wife bareback, he will get a rash from navel to knees. It's just not worth trying to keep them separate.

We use Kimono Ultra-Thin-feels like having no condom on at all. It is lubricated-slightly.

It seems to me like that would be an answer to a lot of problems with males not wanting to desensitize their weapon.

I guess some women wouldn't want to use them for various reasons, but, for intercourse they might be just the ticket for others. I suppose if i'm going to recommend something i should try it. Then i could give it my own personal # hot chili peppers on the scale of try it or don't bother, huh?

Anyway, if any of you tried them, please let me know what you thought. Were they worth the effort on the road to safer sex?

I tried female condoms several times with a very patient lady (I was having stamina problems). They were difficult to find in stores. They went into her vagina without too much difficulty, but the opening was over-large (almost like a funnel). During sex they were slightly more cumbersome than regular condoms but not much. You certainly could not insert 24 hours ahead of time though!

I also am rather surprised that so many people go "bare back" and hoping that is just with SO, not swing things. I am a nursing student on my way to an RN and we have talked about the number of people who have HPV. HPV is the virus that in one of it's forms is commonly known as "Genital Warts", the consensus is that it "Probably can't" be spread from genitals to mouth which is the good news. The bad news is a person can be infected with this virus and never have a symptom. Even if a person is symptom free it can still "possibly" be spread. The concern with HPV is that, depending on the study you read around 85% of cervical cancer starts with the HPV virus. I was going to say that I'm not trying to scare anyone, but that's not entirely true. I can't imagine swinging with anyone without a condom. HPV has no known cure, but a vaccine is in the testing stages.

[t&s909]

i like the size to fit custom ones that you can order online thru condomania,,, when a condom actually fits I actually don't mind wearing them,,, its when they are too tight, which is usually the case, that i dislike them.

collegelady911,

i thought i had read that even condoms do not do a very good job of stopping HPV from being transmitted..
