Condoms

I know different threads have been posted on this subject but I'd like to add this one.  I know guys' equipment comes in all shapes and sizes and for the most part, so do condoms.  Condoms are now flavored, latex free, glow in the dark ( yes, really) lubed, unlubricated  and many different shapes and textures.

With that being said I was always under the impression that providers kept a small variety of different, at least, sizes and maybe style for HER preference.

I was on a date yesterday where the condom being used was one of those lower quality fruit flavored ( strawberry I believe, from the aroma) condoms.  Now I'll be quite honest with you..."junior" isn't the largest piece the ladies have come across but let's be real!  This condom was so tight it barely even unrolled.  In fact I think all the blood was forced back into the rest of my body lol.  

What's your take?  Do providers keep a selection on hand?

Thanks

No two penises are the same, and there is a correspondingly huge range of condoms available out there. No gal can stock every man's preferred jimmy-jacket; especially if you haven't told her what you prefer.

Why not measure your junk, try a few condoms of the appropriate size and select your own favorite? Try different materials, too (latex, polyisoprene, etc..) as they all transfer sensation differently. Then ask her if she has them or if you can bring your own. A little effort from you and sex can feel much better, without leaving your pleasure to chance.

No guarantees that she'll let you bring your own - but nothing ventured, nothing gained

be sure that they are in a sealed box.  It will make the gal feel a lot more comfortable with using them

... to be using because if I bought a brand new box of condoms today and only use 2 condoms.

Next Wednesday at my next meeting, I have to go out and buy another box, even though I just bought this box today. Logically, it doesn't make any sense at all.  

If the condom is still in the wrapper with no damage to the wrapper, it's all good.  

Why be so anal over this?

I always appreciate an advance heads up if someone has a special need or preference.

I try to keep a reasonable variety on hand, both so I can say, "I've got you covered!" and to subtly hint they are required, but I can't stock everything as MZ notes.

I wouldn't feel comfortable using anything I didn't bring with me, but if a guy just happened to mention his preference to me, no expectations of course, then I would take an interest in that sort of educational tidbit for my research.

It's a good idea to carry different sized condoms. It's important to have a good fit

I like you already! Check your PM...

A longtime regular asked me if I would use a female condom with him and so I tried it.  I'm not really used to them yet and so far have only employed them a few times.  

Maybe I/we did something wrong, but somehow a suction was created and the FC stuck to him and got pulled out with him when we were done.  He is of quite large girth, if that means anything..... perhaps we just need extra lube?
It's a good thing he and are very comfortable with one another, making this something we could laugh off, because this might have been an awkward moment under different circumstances.  ;-)

Any advice is appreciated!  TIA!

I'm thinking a little more lube would have helped but I've only been in that situation a couple of times

D.

Lots of lube makes the FC work the best and makes them, in my opinion, the next best feeling to using nothing.

Other than that little mishap, do you like them? They seem safer since they protect from contact on the external female genitalia as well, but they also seem so unsightly. Do you feel they're a visual turn off? Are they comfortable while wearing them? I have no experience with them, I'm not even sure where to buy them.

I have the standard variety Trojans & Crowns;
ultra-thin Japanese condoms for those who like protection for all activity with as much sensitivity as possible;
smaller sized Japanese condoms that don't make a slightly less endowed man feel like he's swimming in a ziplock bag;
condoms for men with very wide bases that taper up;
condoms for men with very large heads, but average sized bases;
non-latex condoms;
fancy, trendy condoms;
finger condoms;
no flavored condoms. If those are supposed to be for my pleasure, I'll pass.
I do have flavored lube packets;
silicone lube packets;
water based lube packets;
single use massage bars;
breath mints;
scented wipes.....
It's a little bag of tricks. You never know what you'll need. And I'm always open to suggestions
