I use them all the time. j'adore the Female Condom.
They are still growing in popularity, a lot of people are unaware of their sheer awesomeness!
I actually have attended a few of the Chicago Female Condom meetings, to learn more and become a certified instructor about them
Couple fancy tidbits about Female condoms:
1.) the inner ring can be taken out, and the condom can be used for anal sex, among hetero or gay partners.
2.) the FC2 can be inserted vaginally for up to 4hrs prior to intercourse! which means that for some of the exhibitionists among us, who like to sex in public bathrooms, at music concerts....ie....you're ready to go!!
3.) also, the FC2 is larger in width that ANY other condom on the market. so for all the extra "gifted" fellas out there, we have you covered
4.) they're made out of Nitrile, which is what surgical gloves are made from and NO ONE is allergic to.
5.) Nationally, Walgreens carries them in stores you can search their website to see which stores near you have them.
6.) FREE at most HIV testing sites and for the cheap (and often free) at Planned Parenthood.
7.) the "noisy" ones were the first generation FC...the newer generation the FC2 (the ones made of Nitrile) are close to silent!
8.) AWESOME for threesomes: each lady wears her condom and client can hop from body to body without needing to change condoms so many times!!
9.) first invented in 1980, there are 3 versions made by different companies, available around the would...but most popularity is in India, Africa and USA.
