Hello! Every time my fiance and I buy
condoms we usually end up getting a
different type. We always buy the same
brand but have been having problems with
some types breaking easier than others.
What types of condoms seem to be the most
durable? Thanks girls!

I get tested for hiv regularly because I
am paranoid freak. I just changed over
to kaiser as my hmo, and had to sit with
an hiv counselor for the first time today.
She told me that using latex condoms is
the only way to reduce the chance of
getting stds. I have been using latex
free condoms for quite a while now and had
not idea it was only reducing my risk of
pregnancy. It's like i've been having
unprotected sex!!
I have had almost 20 partners and am
really disgusted with myself that I having
used better discretion in my life. Well,
i'm 24 and now is my chance to shape up I
guess.
Anyway, this excessive amount of slutty
experience has tought me a thing or two
about the condoms I prefer. I like
trojans. The one that are in the dark
blue or the light blue box are the ones I
tend to go with. I was using trojan
supras, but will not use them anymore
because they are latex free. I stay away
from anything that says "sheer" or "super
sheer." while they may feel better for
both parties, they tend to break in my
experience.

I like durex warm sensations!It has a
special warming lube that is both inside
and out-for both of you to enjoy.My
husband had a hard time(no pun intended!)
with other brands feeling too fake and
constricting,but he love these!

Consumer reports just tested condoms.
Top 7 for strength and reliability are:
in order from cheapest to most expensive
1 - trojan, non-lubricated
2 - trojan, ultra pleasure spermicidal
lubricant
3, 4, & 5 are the same price
3 - trojan, extended pleasure climax
control lubricant
7 - theyfit, extended pleasure climax
control lubricant

Trojan's are my personal favorite.
They're thick enough that they don't
break, but not too thick and you can still
feel some of the pleasure and warmth.
Stay away from durex, as they break pretty
much every time i've used them.
Also, if you're going to use a separate
lubricant, make sure it's water based
(i.E. K-y or astroglide) and not oil
based (i.E. Vaseline) as the oils will
cause microtears in the latex which will
make it less effective and more prone to
breaking.
Hope this helps,
justin

Condoms Down Posted: 03-29-05 16:44pm
This may not be relative to the topic, but
I need some advice!! I think a condom is
lost inside of me and I was wondering if
it would come out on its own or do I need
to have it removed? Will it be harmful
to my health?? Please help! :(
