I experienced FC‘s before and totally got off.  Providers are hard to come by where I live so I do not want to blow my chance with a provider or the use of a FC. So I went out and ordered some. Now how do I ask a provider if she will let me use them? I do not want to turn her off either?   Is it acceptable

Hey, are you willing to try the FC2? I've used them and really like them...she should be open to it, it's not like you're asking for anything unsafe...

I had a provider ask me to being some FCs to our meeting but she could not figure out how to insert them.

Just make sure she KNOWS how to use them properly. YouTube has several "how to use the FC2 "videos. Just pick one. Lastly, buy your own. They are more expensive than make condoms and you don't want hooker math to kick in and raise your session price.

And on your dime! Make sure to ask if she's "seasoned" in using them,of course in a tactful way...

You will have greater results if you explain why.  Also,  where are you hiding that there are so few providers?  Perhaps I will visit and bring my own supply.  😉

I've never tried them before, I'll look into it. Are they only available online? Is it safe? I don't want any issues.

Come to Colorado and we will try them out together! I have plenty.

If the providers are FC friendly.. It's not a rude/out of line question... Some cater other may not but it doesn't hurt to ask.. I think TER profiles has a section for female condom friendly providers..

...It could be interpreted as asking about sex.  You can determine if she's FC-friendly by doing a TER search although there are a lot of "don't knows" because it's a relatively newly-added search criterion.  Condoms shouldn't be mentioned to someone you haven't seen before because they could be LE and because FCs have only one use and it ain't for:

Couldn't you use a FC for something like a snow cone, or a gyro?

So it's best to ask during the date and not during the screening process?

Just ask her

If the lady says no after he has been screened, and he declines the appointment based on this information, he might be labeled a time waster.  

I personally would never decline the appointment based on information that I cannot obtain until I get to the hotel room.  Doesn't make sense but I guess how some people could do that.  I would just bring both to cover all circumstances but good to know I should ask after screening.  Thank you.

or why not look at her TER profile? It should be on there you can ask anything if you are sweet and literally don't know, so why not ask. Don't be afraid.
