this topic always gets them going
at the end its personal choice and how you want to
live. A bit like common sense depends on who is spruicking it
and their intentions and agenda
By the time you eliminate your list there wouldn't be a lot on offering
at times

We always use condoms and that is our personal choice. We won't play without them. We of course respect your decision, and if you feel comfortable with it, then of course it is your choice.

STD's many times have no outward symptoms, and we have read that something like 1 in 4 or 5 people in the United States does carry the herpes virus. Hepatitis has no outward symptoms either much of the time and we all know that an HIV+ person doesn't display symptoms until they are far along in the process.

To us, our choice is to not risk it, but we respect those that do. We are certain that we have played with couples that don't use them but with us unless they are going to use a condom, there is no penetrative play.

I would respectfully pose this question to you; When you say that there is no penetrative play without a condom, does that include oral play as well? Or do you insist on the use of dental dams as well

If my understanding is correct, many STD's can be transfered via oral sex as well as through intercourse, so unless a person is using some kind of oral protection and condoms then your not really protected. In my opinion the only protection a condom provides is for the prevention of pregnancy and thats not even a 100%, granted it might protect againts certian STD's to some degree, but I think many have a false sense of security when it comes to wearing a condom....

Mrs. CXXC and I insist on the use of condoms for several reasons. Whatever the reality may be regarding their efficacy in the prevention of most STD’s, this placebo affect works to keep our minds centered upon the activities at hand and not the unseen dangers. Is this wise? It is not. Is this using commons sense? Again, it is not. The only true method of protection against STD’s, pregnancy, and various other fluid transfers is abstinence! This is called the "Swingers Lifestyle", not the "Don’t touchor kiss and Wish Lifestyle"!

Yes, condoms do aid greatly in the prevention of unwanted pregnancies. Yes, they, when oral activities are not engaged in, can aid in the prevention of the spread of most STD’s. Yes, they are more of a comfort factor than we realize. However, what is that amount of comfort worth to us all? The number STD’s and pregnancies that have been avoided by the use of condoms are far greater than the totals that have gotten through. If that were not the case, the numbers of “sick” individuals would be far greater than it is.

I am surgically safe yet I wear one to protect Mrs. CXXC from the potential harm that they may prevent. I do not elude myself into thinking that they are 100% secure. I also know the odds become favorable for the transfer of STD’s and such through oral and manual stimulation. I don’t use a dental dam. She does not always offer her oral services requiring a condom. This is a gateway for illness that we are comfortable with. We do however, require that our play partners wash their hands and use sanitizer before playing. Also, if they move to another woman and play, they must repeate the process of washing before playing with Mrs. CXXC. One penis is easier to cover than ten fingers. We try our best to break the chain of contamination!

We will probably continue to use condoms for the duration of our lifestyle involvement. I dare say that the biggest reason is to prevent unwanted pregnancy. The close, and illogical, second place reason would be for the comfort we get from using them in our self acknowledged denial of possibility!

This is why we use condoms as well. I especially like reason #2!

I never used a condom with any partner, nor was I asked to.

My wife started by asking all parners to use condoms, as pregnancy was a concern. She frequently had a yeast infection after having sex with a new partner. After a few years later she dropped that requirement but still had the yeast infections. She finally gave up swing altogether. More trouble than it was worth.

We know of no one, ever after asking club owners, who had clap, syph, HIV, or aids. We do know of clamydia, Trichomoniasis, herpes and HPV, all of which either were cured or never caused ongoing problems (for instance, only one minor outbreak of herpes and no other for 10 years). The risk is there, but slight compared to the benefits, provided one is quite careful about choosing partners.

we are both health professionals and insist on condoms. just our preference for risk reduction.

[xxxboxy]

So what do you do to protect your scrotum?

[SheLovesTheSun]

I don't know, it just seems like a bad idea not to use condoms. Granted, they may not protect you from all risks, but at least they reduce the risks. Yes, it does come down to trust, but sometimes even someone you do trust can let you down.
That being said, I don't use condoms with my boyfriend, but we would insist on using one with other people.

[celtic239]

I had intercourse with a condom but never used one during oral. Without trying to sound facetious are flavored condoms preferred over regular ones for oral?

[RDfnd]

Seems that few use condoms for oral, (some to completion), even though they require them for intercourse.

[Meetussoon]

6th sense.....
"I see infected people."

We prefer bareback, fully aware of the risks.

[BamaRide]

My position is that I don't like using a wrapper...simple enough... Condoms are nothing more than a means to midigate risks. That said, it is not the ONLY way to midigate risk. A much more important factor for doing this in my mind is the know who I'm fucking! For real! Let me put it to you like this... you are going to be intimate with someone in the room... on the left side are people you know...people you share a good amount of time with getting to know.... your knowledge of these people you can only have sex with bare back...on the right.. are people that you know nothing of... but they all have condoms and are more than willing to hook up using them...

Who are you more comfortable with?

I'll ride with the bare back gang... more pleasure... and I know what I'm getting into..literally!
