Go with her choice...

There could be several reasons for her not wanting to use yours.  

Some models of the same brand use different lubricants and nonoxyl-9 does have some side effects related to tissue breakdown that can be very irritating for the woman involved.  

There is also the question of reliability of the source.  How was the condom stored?  Was it tampered with in any way?  These are things she does not know and effect the reliability of the protection.

If you prefer a certain model; bring an unopened box to the meeting and ask if they are suitable or let her know that you prefer a certain model ahead of time(works better for subsequent encounters).  Communication is the key and compromises can be worked out, just try to keep in mind that the ladies we all like so much have their opinions as well.

Remember, this is supposed to be a fun, safe hobby.

Had an experience recently where a provider really, really pushed hard for me to use her brand of latex rather than mine.  Problem is, I chose the model I use after lots of trial-and-error for best sensitivity, etc.  I gave in to her choice, about as thick as a Goodyear, and it ruined the experience for me.  BTW, mine was the same national brand as hers, just another model.  I figured going with her choice would appease her and provide better service.  On the other hand, the better service didn't matter because I couldn't feel anything.

What does etiquette dictate?  Could I have just gracefully ended the session (I hadn't paid yet) when she wouldn't back down from using her cover?  Or was I simply a chump?
