Just The Facts: SAFER SEX IS HOTTER SEX!
The use of condoms can be essential to a happy sex life, since condoms are the only way to ensure that you can reduce the risks of disease and pregnancy while fully enjoying your sexual experience.
Condoms are an incredible invention. They prevent disease and pregnancy and, if you're willing to give them a chance, they can be fun! Several hundred years ago, people made condoms out of pigs' bladders, but today we can buy condoms that science and technology have almost perfected for our safety and enjoyment.
An important tip: When condoms fail, it is almost always because they've not been used properly.
So here are the top ten tips for using condoms:
Purchase them! Get a supply of the condoms that suit you best:
Use latex condoms. Brands such as Lifestyle, Trojan, Kimono, or Protex are usually reliable. Natural skin condoms, like lambskin, feel good, but do not prevent disease. If you or your partners are allergic to latex (it might give you a rash or irritation) or it isn't compatible with a lubricant or product you are using, try polyurethane condoms like Avanti.
You may find you want to use a special condom to suit your special needs:

If your man is uncircumcised, he may need a condom such as Maxx, which is wider at the head.
Take care of your condoms, store them somewhere handy (you never know when you may need them) as well as somewhere cool and dry (latex rots if it gets too warm, like in the back pocket of his pants for too long). Also, check the expiration date on the package. Never use condoms that are old, in a package that has been opened by someone else, have been left out of their package, or have been kept in a warm place.
Practice putting them on! Don't wait until you're in the heat of a sexual situation. Get used to putting them on ahead of time. You can practice on a banana or a cucumber to get the full effect. Then, when it's time for sex with a partner, you'll know exactly how to use it!
Get smart with condoms! Know how to use condoms properly!
Use care to roll the condom down the shaft of the penis as soon as it is erect. (If they are uncircumcised, they will probably need to pull the foreskin back before putting the condom on). Pinch the reservoir at the top of the condom so that there's no air bubble trapped inside the condom (air bubbles can cause breakages).
Beware of jewelry or sharp fingernails, as these can cause small rips or tears in a condom (which later lead to breakages).
Keep the condom firmly on the penis until ejaculation occurs. If they are inside their partner, withdraw, and carefully remove the condom and dispose of it. Use a new condom each time you participate in intercourse.
- If the condom tends to slip off during sex, you might try a condom such as Mentor which has an elasticized band at the base.
- If his erect penis is unusually thick or long, you may need a condom such as Trojan Plus or Magnum. But know that there is no penis that is "too big for a condom" – when properly used, any regular condom can fit over any penis any time. You can always purchase a condom from www.condomania.com and get one that will be a hassle-free and a perfect fit!

Lubricate! Your condom will probably come with some lubrication inside, most likely it will be a silicone-based lubricant. For the pleasure of intercourse without discomfort, you will probably want to use additional lubricant on the outside of the condom. Never use petroleum- or oil-based lubricants or heighteners because it may deteriorate the latex and cause damage to the condom.
