Okay, okay, I hear you thinking it: “We know how to use condoms.”
It is more fun to talk about threesome positions or what double-ended dildos work best for your next live-sex show, but condoms are an important part of your sex life, so checking in occasionally to make sure you’re properly informed and updated is essential.
Responsibility is sexy. It indicates how much you respect yourself, and how much you respect the women you sleep with.
Here are a few common condom mistakes you might be making.
Wearing the wrong size rubber.
Some of us learned that one size fits all in high school health class, and it’s true that most condoms will “fit” any dick.
While any condom is better than not wearing one, seeking out the condoms made for your size is your best bet for risk-free sex.
If a guy is on the smaller side, the wrong condom can slip and slide, allowing fluids in or out. You also risk it sliding off completely. Some of the larger sized rubbers are also made of thicker latex, for more durability, which can interfere with your plefa0ure and sensation.
If you’re smaller than average, don’t be shy about ordering specialty condoms online if you can’t find them locally. Wear what fits. If you’re dick is bigger than average, think twice before using “extra thins” that might not hold up reliably, or regular condoms that feel too tight. If it feels like it could burst, well, then it might.
Rolling it wrong.
This is extremely common—you pull one out and go to unroll it over your dick, realize it’s the wrong way around, turn it the other way, and put it on.
Most of us don’t even think twice about this.
The problem is that fluids from the head of your penis are now on the side of the rubber going into someone’s pussy, ass or mouth. That fluid could be filled with communicable diseases… or babies. Just saying.
Wearing the same condom for both women.
I understand—freedom to move between women and the whole back and forth thing is super hot.
You might think that if the girls are exchanging cunnilingus, then they’re exchanging fluids anyhow. Pussy to saliva has its own risks, but infections in vaginal fluids are more likely to infect another pussy then a mouth. Change the wrapper when you change partners.
Forgetting to use condoms on toys.
If you’re watching her get her strap-on dildo ready to penetrate, get in on the action by putting the condom onto the plastic cock. Shared toys should always wear condoms just like shared body parts!
Even if you don’t share the toy with more than one person, a condom can cut down on transferring surface bacteria into a body. It doesn’t hurt.
Opening a packet with a sharp object.
This one seems to be a no-brainer, yet I’ve had women using nail files and Buck knives, and sometimes I have resorted to using my teeth! You might assume you aren’t puncturing the actual rubber, or would know if you had, but don’t take that chance.
