OK, let's see if we can get through this one without a lock. In YOUR personal experience, MEN, what is the brand and type of prophylactic that you have found allows you the most sensation? (If you have to ask what "prophylactic" means, you shouldn't even answer.) Women, your input is appreciated, too. Sometimes I think that the ones I've tried must be safe to use when handling live electrical wires carrying thousands of volts. They're very...INSULATING. Meaning that sometimes I can't feel hardly a thing. Like it's happening to somebody else and I'm just watching, but from a first person perspective. I'd like to find an option that affords me of the natural sensation, but there are so many choices and I really don't want to have to buy a dozen of each...I can't afford it and it would take so long to actually give each one a fair try anyway, under "combat conditions".

Durex Extra Sensitives are nice. I know I like them, aswell as the girlfriend. They're nice and thin, they transfer heat well, don't wreak of latex, which is a good thing, and they're relatively large. Good condoms. I don't like Trojans, to me, they feel rubbery, and the girlfriend says the same thing. I'm a proud Durex user.
|
|
Geez, no one is serious.
Lifestyles Ultrasenstive work better than most for me. YMMV. |
|
This is what i have used. She didn't complain.
http://store1.yimg.com/I/theaccessgroup_1857_2431259 Go and buy a bunch of different ones and pratice using all of them atleast once. |
|
Magnums, I presume you mean?
There are still a few different versions of those. Yes, I've used them. I have to use larger sizes. They're better because they don't squeeze me to death like regular sizes, but is there better yet? I can't wait until someone perfects the spray-on, thin film condom. Just one molecule thick, and tough enough for love. CI |
|
If I have to use one, the Lifestyles Ultra Sensitive is the one I use.
Tried the Durex, didn't care for it. Trojans are too damn thick. |
|
Try the new polyurethane condoms like Trojan Supras. Much better than latex, women say it doesn't feel like you're wearing a condom. More expensive through.
|
|
+1. Trojan sucks. |
|
|
Druex Avanti's and Trojan Supra's are good, made of polyurethane, though, not latex, like said, more expensive. 3 packs only, I believe.
|
|
OK, so I think I'll try the urethanes, next time around.
Any others? CJ |
|
Those Trojan Supras are like $7 for 3. Pretty expensive fuck IMO.
|
|
If you put a drop of lube on the inside of the condom tip it will greatly increase the user's sensation.
|
|
I don't have any brand loyalty per se.
I DO though usually need at least FOUR of whatever I'm using because THREE of them are going to be pulled-off in frustration and thrown across the room!!! |
|
CI: There's your problem right there. I used magnums for a long time because, well you know, and the thing was this: Regulars were too tight, but the magnums -- being desgned for everyone the above average to "mutant" scale, tend to be thicker and too much latex. I found that if you avoid the thick latex like Trojans, you'll get used to the regular sized ones -- it took me a while, and for a long time I was worried I'd break the "ultra sensatives" -- but with plenty o lube and used properly (i.e., squeeze the air out of the tip before you put it on), I've only had the rare occasion of breakage. |
|
|
That's a good tip... |
|
|
Do any of those ribbed condoms actually work? Somebody should make a website called the Jimmyhat of truth.
|
|
I dont' know, I always turn mine inside out for my pleasure. |
|
|
+1 Same here. |
|
|
Well, you could make up for it by turning "dinner and a movie" into a "matinee and a snack". |

+1 on the Lifestyles Ultra Sensitive.
I had to use the Trojan Supras because a girlfriend was allergic to latex and they are good for the first couple minutes but after that they suck. I hated using them as polyurethane does not stretch like latex and it's texture changes after going at it for awhile. For non-latex I've also tried the Durex Avanti which I found to be better than Supra but still lacking compared to Lifestyle Ultra's. |
|
|
+2 I'm not going to explain it any more than that. |
||
|
I've heard that Female condoms are good for the man, but poor for the woman. It's like the man isn't wearing a condom, and the female is.
Can anyone confirm this? |
|
+3 |

We need a poll. So far it looks like LifeStyles is in the lead. |

I haven't yet found any that allowed the same sensations as 'barebacking'. But some are better than others. Personally, I've found the slightly larger than average condoms to be best, regardless of thickness. Those that fit so tight that they are uncomfortable really effect the sensations. It seems most fit super-tight, even if you're just a bit above average.
During sex, I just want to restrain the Lil' Pardner, not choke him. So finding the proper fit is the most beneficial thing I've found to work for me. |
|
Trojan magnums. I *hated* condoms till I tried those. Turns out the "desensitization" was caused by being squeezed way too tight. ONce I switched I don't mind them at all. It's still not as good as other methods.
|
|
Had my vasectomy a few weeks ago..a few more weeks and I will never.......EVER have to use one of those things again.
|

NATURAL-LAMB
Freeking best condoms in the universe - and God do they feel great - for both partners. Incredibly expensive - like $3.00 each. But worth it!!! Naturalamb |
|
+1 on fit, and the easiest way to do that is by buying custom fit condoms. Seriously, "TheyFit condoms," look in to it. |
|
|
Yes, Magnums are made to be thicker, it's a shame. The normal size ones are much too tight for me, and have broken. I'd rather feel nothing than feel a kid I don't want kicking my girl from the inside out.
ETA: Lambskins don't protect against HIV and other STDs. Do not use with a partner that hasn't been checked, and vice versa. |
|
Trojans with ribs, but you turn them inside out and apply extra lube...
|
|
the durex made poly ones rock, gotta go that way cause I am allergic to latex, so much thinner and oh so strong for.........vigorous activity
|
|
|
So glad I'm married. Haven't used one of them things in years.
|
|
Lambskins are out, for my needs. I'm not in the habit of poking into things that may have been poked by unclean people before, but the need is for STD insurance. And you just can't really know who or
what may be in HER past. Who's TOTALLY honest with their partners about their past sex lives? Until I see blood test results, the bag stays on. That's why I'm looking for better bags. CJ |
