This came up yesterday and I thought it might help any newbie. I had read in a couple of guys reviews how disappointed they were to learn the provider had only one condom (cover, rubber, etc) and so their session was cut short. After reading that, I decided to never let that happen to me. So I purchased a 12 pack just for insurance. Of course I have a special hiding place but make sure to stick at least 3 in my pocket when seeing a provider.

After making an apointment with a absolutely stunning lady yesterday, I was driving to her incall location and I got a text from her saying she had arrived but had forgotten we had a multi-hour session schedule and she only had 1 condom. I texted her back that I had that covered. This kept me from having to make a side trip to the drug store. Plus, if she hadn't found out about this once we were into the "act" it would have ruined the wonderful experience she brought me.

So just thought this might be some good advise for you guys!...happy hunting!!

I always make sure that I have some with me, but I only buy the three-paks. That way, they can be on the side table by the bed, still in the box. All this does is let the lady know that I probably haven't had these condoms since last February, and they haven't been sitting in my wallet or glove box, at least in theory.

Just an attempt at some reassurance for the lady.

My ATF once asked me to stop & pick some up. (She offered to reimburse me for them!  I was not so crass as to take her up on it.) I had to get off the highway & find a store on my way.  It was very inconvenient so now I always bring  2-3 in the brand I prefer.  It's not possible to always bring a sealed box.  I also place them on the night table, she can check the sealed packaging while I'm in the bathroom & by providing more than one, she chooses which gets opened.  It's always good to have a spare or 2, in case one needs to be replaced.  

I have heard of scams where the lady only has one or has to run out & buy them (& disappears).

I always bring sealed 3 pack myself ... but prefer when a gentleman has his own.  There is no way a girl can predict which brand/size her date prefers ))

"I had read in a couple of guys reviews how disappointed they were to learn the provider had only one condom (cover, rubber, etc) and so their session was cut short."

That's the oldest line in the book... The provider doesn't want to provide more than one "shot on goal," so gives the old "one condom" excuse.

Do you actually believe that a provider would knowingly walk out her door with only one condom? Suppose that one was damaged, or broke while the client was putting it on? What would happen then? Session over? Too bad, so sad - no refunds?

I don't believe for a second she has only one condom.

"It's not possible to always bring a sealed box.  I also place them on the night table, she can check the sealed packaging while I'm in the bathroom & by providing more than one, she chooses which gets opened."

What exactly is she checking for?

Read the reviews and see if the gal runs out of condoms a lot. I'm not saying it never happens but it has NEVER happened to me in twenty years of hobbying.  Some ladies will use this as an excuse to avoid a second pop.

If by chance the provider only has 1 condom, that is no excuse for a 1 pop session. You could always shoot the remaining loads down her throat!!!!

so I bring an unopened 3 pack, and while they're a lot more expensive than latex, $6-8 per 3 pack, it's a minor expense considering.

I feel comfy knowing we have the equipment I like, and the ladies like to see the original sealed package.

Everyone is happy this way...

condoms, lube, breathmints, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, and anything else you may need.  

Saves a lot of hassles and makes hobbying so much more relaxed when you KNOW you have the basics covered.

Come prepared so you are prepared to cum!

google polyurethane condoms and do a little reading to get better informed.
Several studies are either in process and or out already poly verses latex condoms,
Poly is typically thinner and yes more comfortable and body heat is more easily felt through them yet, being thinner they are made with less elastic and are more prone to breakage and slipping.
although the fda has approved them for sale in the USA there are no completed studies about how effective they are against STDs. It is recommended if you are not allergic to latex, that you use latex and not poly condoms.

Some lubes, mainly oil bases break down the poly and can cause issues as well.

I don't know about you, but I don't like taking any Extra chances.  I could see if you were seeing just the one partner, but in this corner of the world, where we are playing, we are at even more risk.

Now who knows if the studies that say thumbs up or thumbs down are right, I don't know myself but I do know latex is approved and has passed surveys and studies for preventing STD transmissions, thats good enough for me. I won't use poly based condoms til there are studies that say differently. I like comfort and want the Gentlemen I see to also be as comfortable as possable, but I am uneasy with taking uncertain health risks to achieve it.

all choices I guess...

I found this out the hard way. A lady I was visiting offered Greek but only had oil for lube. After some serious pounding I came about seven or eight big squirts and when I pulled out expecting to see a very full condom tip, it had popped open during the act and I loaded her backside. She is very fortunate  that I have always gone protected in the past.

geesh  I worry about things like this...
I have been reading up on them lately but til theres more info and what not I just can't do it.

As gentlemen come in every shape and size so do condoms

I have a large selection from the small to the Trojan XL. Nothing worse than being strangled by some plastic ring while your trying to enjoy yourself.

If you know you need a special size I would suggest picking them up ahead of time. Many ladies do not have a large variety on hand.

The right fit gives the best comfort.It can be the difference between coming again or not cuming at all

She is checking to see if it's been tampered with. A slight pin hole can deliver a disease if that's the intention of a pissed off guy who caught something from a female...payback and it happens the other way round too.

I did google this topic several months ago, and again today, and my conclusions...

Poly were introduced aroound 1994.  Some studies between then and 2000 indicate higher rate of breakage or slippage, however more recent studies show the numbers to be about the same as latex, as the poly have been improved.

I think you got the data about oil based lube mixed up.  Mixing oil & latex is a big "no-no".  I read that poly is more resistant to oil, but in any case, I prefer Astroglide, which seems to be compatible with everything, and my partners agree.

I've only seen poly condoms in one size, and we'll all agree that proper fit is paramount... don't we?  Whereas latex is available in different sizes, shapes, colours, and flavors.

I've done my own testing with a few ladies, where we tried both poly & latex and there was clear preference from both sides for the poly.

All that said... if a lady friend isn't comfortable using poly, then latex it is!

On a long-awaited overnight with a regular, my client showed up pale and holding his groin gingerly. When I asked what was wrong, he unzipped to reveal a wad of bloody Kleenex in his briefs. He'd nicked himself shaving his balls, and the poor guy just wouldn't stop bleeding.

After the frenzy to find antiseptic, bandages, etc in my incall, we were both flustered and decided to go back to his hotel to get him fresh underwear.

It wasn't until midnight after a recuperative dinner and drinks, that we got ready for action... and realized that we had left the condoms and lube back at my incall.... 25 minutes away.

Bless his heart-- he called every store in the neighborhood to find a 24-hour Walgreens... and then cabbed it over there and back to get us supplied.

Needless to say it put a dent in the evening... but since we both had forgotten the vitals, he didn't blame me in the least.

We're still friends and we often laugh about the overnight from hell!

Gotta have to agree - I much prefer the polyurethane condoms...

That said, you're right, the lady makes the call.

I have gotten to the MAIN EVENT with a really well known and well reviewed provider, only to find out that she has NO PROTECTION!!!!! It is a GOOD policy to follow the Boy Scout Motto and ALWAYS be prepared!

footnote:oil does not affect the integrity of poly condoms, only latex!

I bring my own condoms to a session because I have latex allergies
and I use poly condoms.

I always make sure to have a nice assortment, lubed, non, ribbed, flavored, non latex, and even female condoms too! I keep a zippered travel pouch filled

since I DO bring an unopened package every time, yes, it IS possible.
