Johnnies, rubbers, Wicked Willie's raincoat and so on.
We all need them for safe sex. So what do you look for when you go shopping for them?
Brand
Price
Ribbed
Textured
Flavoured
Smell
Hypoallergenic
Thickness/sensitivity
Foil wraps, ease of opening and size
I personally like ribbed, as they feel really secure on me.
What are your thoughts?

"Skyns normally the elite. They are latex free and feel great.
Unfortunately my clinic rarely has skyns available "
When you say feel great, what do you mean? You can't feel that is on or they are a really nice texture? I've only ever worn HEX, Mates and Durex.

Another vote for Skyns, especially the latex free ones. They are so thin and the sensation is better for me too. Growing to hate Durex with their impossible to open packaging that kills the moment. Hate the inner tubes that some guys bring. |

That's the sort of answer, I was looking for. I have sensitive skin on my hands and that's not a lot of fun either, when they flare up
So whats the best way to bring this up, before the passion killing moment? Please, not that brand
anything but them! |

It’s only you saying it now that made me realise you are absolutely right about the sensation for the woman. I’ve always liked Skyns because they do a good extra large size, they are latex free, you can open the packets and they roll on well, but yes, they feel great too.
I do sometimes miss bareback though, sigh. |

Pasante king size but just because they are wider so easier to get on in the heat of the moment. Nothing kills the mood more than a fight with a condom.
Just wish they were thinner |

We (well he!) use ones from a company called TheyFit. He’s average length but larger than average girth.
Standard condoms (the whole one size fits all nonsense) are too long and narrow. They end up rolling up and cutting the blood flow, and bye-bye erection
Since using these though he stays hard throughout.
We don’t use them with each other, just if he’s with another woman.
Stay safe |

We always bring our own and get the guys to use them it's a polite way to take control of the situation. |

"Lots of subtle "Well I need an XL/XXXL so use this brand..."
They are stretchy and can hold a litre or two of water..."
But water is heavy and stretches with its weight. I have seen too many large cocks squished into standard size condoms because the cock owners haven’t got a clue about the variety available. They look like sad little bank robbers and it does affect blood flow. Do your research and get condoms that suit your cock shape guys! |

"As long as one is always used I’m not really fussed on what type, they all have the same effect for me and despite not enjoying then it’s better than the alternative "

One key difference is most people roll a condom on rather than stretch it over their penis which risks damaging it ( condom not penis lol).
Whilst it may be much easier to stick your fingers in and stretch it i much rather not risk damaging my protection. |

I picked a load up at Pride, get free ones from the chemist and also get XL for a friend!
I don’t mind what condom gets used as long as it does. Not a fan of flavoured ones though.
I’m sure if a guy liked a particular brand he’d make the effort to have them on him. Unfortunately a lot of guys are never prepared. |

There's a new brand out, guaranteed 100% effective.
They're called "Distance" and their advertising goes thus:
"Distance, the guaranteed contraception device"
"Put Distance between you and your partner it never fails."
I'll get me coat! |
