Hello ladies and Gentleman. Wanted to get your take on Female Condoms. I plan to start offering soon and was wondering the pros and or cons? Any info is helpful.

Other than they look silly, they are awesome.  I'm not a huge fan of male condoms (understand their importance). With some lube gives a an amazing bareback feel. (Atleast for me)

The aesthetics aren't great and putting them in feels a little weird (for me anyway), but they are so worth it once the action starts!

They are also a must for any MFF duos. No need to be changing once the fun starts?

I had never used one before. He suggested I step outside of my normal comfort zone and give it a shot. It was perfect. I would suggest the first time you do it, doing so with someone you have seen many times. As mentioned it looks funky but after you realize how it just works you will be over the weirdness.

Did you know female condoms are actually safer than regular condoms?  many STI's are generally spread through skin-to-skin contact and FC's minimize skin contact compared to regular condoms.  Yet Female Condoms actually *feel* more like barebacking to most men, despite being safer overall to use.

For me, I like that there is less friction for me and more friction for the guy.  He gets to enjoy the lubrication instead of being annoyed that there is too much lubrication and that he cant feel anything.  I like that the condom isn't sliding back and forth against my sensitive regions, and he likes that he doesn't have to actually wear a restrictive piece of latex on that part of his body.

They are pricy, but you can buy them in bulk online.  I personally use FC's about 90% of the time now.  I just prefer them and most gentlemen do as well.  Maybe 1 in 10 gentlemen prefer regular condoms, perhaps because they are just used to them and are creatures of habit...

You do need to get used to putting the right amount of lubrication inside and outside the condom so that it doesn't slide around too much during the action.  It's supposed to basically stay in one place with the inner ring back against the cervix.

Love female condoms.  

They are more work from the ladies' standpoint, and can be pulled out during vigorous sex.   This happens more often than not, in my experience.

From the man's standpoint, they are preferable to having our cock's strangled inside of conventional condoms.  This issue is somewhat alleviated by using magnums...much better, but FC's are better still.

Just my three pennies...

I know not all provider use FC, mostly because the price of the FC, but if i can provide the FC and of course the lady is willing to try, can it be purchase at any local drug store?

Not Duane reade! Try an adult toy or video store.

...if you can find the right doctor that has then you can get them for the price of FREE like I do .

END OF MESSAGE

Free testing clinics often have them.  Even if they don't have them on display for the taking, you can just ask someone who works there if they have a supply in the back.  They often do but don't display them because they're more expensive than regular condoms.

I buy mine online through CheapLubes.com or CondomDepot.com when I'm not in NYC.  When I'm in NYC I go to a nice upscale sex toy store like The Pleasure Chest in the West Village or Upper East Side (2nd and 60th/61st, I think).

pros

very natural feeling
take the inner ring out and use for anal too
safer than a regular condom   (refer to Zoey's post)
most guys want to try them if they never have before
   (be sure to include in your ads that you are f/c friendly)
they are great when doing doubles  
most guys love them

 
cons

more expensive.....
     I get mine through undercovercondoms.com and have found them to have the best prices
          plus you get 10% credit on every order to save up and use for future orders
you do have to use EXTRA lube for these, inside and out
they can feel "cooler" with the extra lube....so I warm up the lube.
almost impossible to find in stores, even adult toy stores dont generally carry them so if a CLIENT wants to buy a few to have , well, good luck with that.   I've "sold" or given a few to a client every now and then.

 

 do a search on youtube for a female condom vide

...dunno if this would be found on youtube.

love your video... and it reminded me of something else about the insertion....

I sometimes get a little distracted as my finger glides over my g-spot....  damn, have to stop and play for a sec.

The funny thing about the You Tube one is the girl just talks about them so matter-o-factly.   it's a riot.  but actually very informative.   I looked it up.....here it is.

To me it feels much more like I am fucking a plastic bag than a regular condom.

But, that's just me.  Many people like them.  As long as you don't have something against them, it's best to offer the most possible options.

Not a big fan.  Only tried once but felt like I was having sex with a Hefty bag.

and the other gentleman too who said he felt like it was fucking a plastic bag.   was there enough lube being used?   I use a good silicone lube with them.   so I wonder if the amount and/or type of lube used is a factor in how it feels for you.

in a funny side note.....  how do you know what it feels like to actually fuck a plastic or Hefty bag....    hmmm, done that before?   hahaha.....just teasin'ya.  

Good question- maybe there wasn't enough lube- I think if there were, maybe it would just be a slippery Hefty bag

Sounds like I'm in the minority though so I could just be a little off.  To each his own...

As for the other comment - no personal experiences with Hefty bags at this point in my life

I use them
