There are many forms of contraception out there, and before you and your
partners are given a clean bill of health and you make sure everyone is free
from disease, there is no excuse not to use condoms during sex. You know
condoms
serve a few purposes when used properly. They stop sperm from entering the
vagina and stopping the potential for pregnancy, they stop the ill-fated spread
of Sexually Transmitted Disease's and AIDS and believe it or not, they help a
man prolong the act of sexual intercourse. They are sort of the jack of
all trades contraceptive, so why don't men wear them. Well one of the
reasons is the fact that you have to drop what you are doing in the heat of the
moment, slow down, and fiddle with putting a one on. The
ole cliché of taking a shower with a raincoat on comes to mind, which is why
most men don't use them. It is a very irresponsible for a sexually active
person to not be using condoms. Especially, if he has been with 3 or more
partners in a year. Well lets discuss some of the different ones, lets
see if we can't get some of your men partners out there to start practicing safe
sex again. The technology has come a long way, it isn't like
wearing a raincoat anymore.
Latex Condoms - Probably the best
one to use in this day and age of
STD's and HIV. It is the most effective prevention on the market, besides
abstinence, and when used correctly has an effectiveness of 97% preventing the
spread of disease and pregnancy. Ultra-thin latex are very thin and
designed to transmit warmth and sensitivity to the penis during intercourse,
while keeping the strength in check. Water-based lubrication
should only be used with latex, anything other than that you are just
looking for trouble. Oil and silicon based lubricants WILL break the latex
down making them unusable, and if practicing safe sex, will need to be
replaced. They come in a variety of colors, shapes, sizes, and even come
with their own lubrication or spermicide.
Polyurethane Condoms - These are thinner than latex,
making their sensitivity raise up during intercourse, and they are twice as
strong as latex as well. They are a good alternative if you or your
partner are allergic to Latex based products, plus they are safe with any type
of lubricant. Polyurethane is twice as expensive as latex, running you about 20 bucks for a dozen, and they too come in a variety
of sizes, shapes, colors, and even come with their own lubrication and
spermicidal.
So convinced yet, well let me add this to the article.
- The only contraceptive that prevents Sexually Transmitted
Disease's
- Still to be considered one of the most reliable methods of birth-control,
though technology is starting to catch up with them.
- Can be bought in any convenience store or pharmacy.
- Believe it or not, are user-friendly, and with a little bit of practice you
will be able to spend less time fiddling with condoms, and more time enjoying sex.
- Available in many shapes and sizes. Flavors and Colors. Textures and Lubes.
Any of these will help enhance your love making.
Talk with your partner about the use of condoms. If she doesn't like
the idea, convince her. Make her know that you are genuinely concerned
about safe sex, and unless you are both committed to getting tested for all the
STD's and HIV, plus being monogamous in the relationship, then we suggest that
condom use should very much become a regular part of your love making.
With the added benefit of pregnancy prevention, everyone should be up to using
condom's more in today's society. A side note, don't be embarrassed to
purchase condoms in public. For one thing, it should show all who are
interested that you are very responsible in your relationship and are looking
out for the well-being of yourself and your partner. If you still feel a
little uncomfortable about purchasing condoms in a store, try an online
store. We care a nice variety of condoms and they are shipped in a discrete
package for your privacy.
Practice! Practice! Practice
Remember when your dad started teaching you how to ride a bike, you kept falling off, and you
got back up, got back on your bike, and probably fell off again. Well You kept going until you
finally got the hang of it, and before you knew it you were riding your bike like a pro. Well
Putting a condom on is sort of like that, it takes practice to get the hang of it, and with a
little patience and a lot of practice you will be putting them on like a pro in no time. To
get started, they usually come rolled up and are individually sealed in a wrapper. One note,
when opening your package, be sure not to tear the condom, and check it over, and look
for brittle, stiff, or torn, discard it and use another one. Plus use one for
each erection, do not reuse them.
- Place a drop of lubricant on the inside portion of the condom (if it didn't come lubrication)
- With an erection, place the condom over the top part of the penis. If you are not circumcised
you will need to pull the foreskin at the tip of the penis back.
- Pinch the top part of the condom near the head to create a little pocket to collect the sperm
when you ejaculate. Remember, do not let go of the tip.
- Now, unroll the condom over the penis with the other hand until the condom reaches the base of
penis.
- Remove the air bubbles around the shaft of the penis. During sex, friction can build up and
if there is air bubbles it can break.
- You are now ready for intercourse, lubricate the condom, if you need to. Go enjoy yourself.
- Time to remove the condom, first you have to be careful not to spill the sperm, so you must
remove it before the penis softens.
- Throw it away, and clean the penis with soap and water.
