Condoms

I have always worried about stage fright when using condoms.

I find them cumbersome. A real struggle to get on and if I manage to keep it up long enough to get it on, by the time I'm attempting to enter a lady I can't feel anything except the condom.

Consequently I just haven't swung very successfully using my cock. I give oral. I bend over for the guys. And I have bareback sex with my wife as she enjoys guys with condoms on.

So I tried using condoms at home with my wife. Skyns were an improvement.

Then, on the shelf in a well known supermarket, there were skyns 'large'.

Problem solved! I can get them on and once I'm inside I forget it's there.

I feel stupid at 45 years old for not realising a slightly bigger condom was all I needed.

I just wanted to share my stupidity in the hope that it might help another guy or two who's struggling with condoms.

I know I'm not the only one who struggled. I've slept with enough of you to know!

I have found exactly the same x standard fit go half way down and make it look like a vacuum packed salami. ...durex xl is the way forward

After complaining about men not being able to keep it up getting a condom on or not even being able to put one on, I took the advice from the forums and got the Skyns Large. I'm very hopeful that this will be problem solved but I haven't slept with anybody new for a couple of months now. Soon see hopefully

I had searched for years for a condom which was not too tight (and no I am not big)and also not too large as some of the larger ones were. It wasn't until last year when I tried Skyns large that I found on I was comfortable with.

How stupid did I feel that it took so long to find the right one !

I use Skyns too, never crossed my mind to get XLs for some reason! Think I'm going to be adding them to my drawer of goodies

The average penis seems to be bigger than the manufacturers of condoms seem to realise.

I now have standard and large in my little bag.

When I'm with a guy I get him excited and when ready to go for it I use my own condom on him.

The skyns packets look very similar so he has no clue that I've selected according to size!!!

I've not had a guy with stage fright since.

I've been told about these skyns thinking of getting some should a meet devlop, I'm just wondering if I had a bigger size it would work for when I'm doing anal. There reduced in the super markets at present so might get some

The reduced price was what tempted me to try them.

I had problems when using them even with my wife so I'm confident now we've been using them for a while, that it'll be problem solved.

I use Skyns - much nicer feel than other ones, IMO.

I'm not a massive fan of them either, but until bareback sex becomes completely safe and risk free, i'll carry on using them

I've always said that having sex wearing a condom is like going for a bath with your clothes on....... It just doesn't feel right!

In the last year since becoming single I've had the old "condom stage fright" and to be honest I would t even know if it's psychological or I'm using the wrong condoms.

I'm not the biggest by any means and would say distinctly average but I guess I'll be trying the skyns soon as I've only ever used durex pleasuremax

This is starting to look like a Skyns promo.

It's more about "try different condoms fellas". Size and manufacturer. It seems they vary more than, I for one, realised.

I've avoided full sex with anyone other than my wife because of my ignorance. She has asked me so many times if I'd like to swap with couples as well as just play with the guys. Now I'm looking forward to swinging in the original definition of the word.

Welcome to the forum.

Used to have a problem with the size of condoms, I just couldn't get them on or if I did they just cut the circulation or split. Like a few of the other posts on here I felt a bit daft not realising that bigger condoms were around. I tried an xl but still no luck until I stumbled across a site that did sample packs made up of different brands and sizes. Sent off for it, two days later it arrived, quickly discarded some without opening, then tried the one's that were left (that was fun), problem solved, I now use 'My Size 64' and find them just right. They do them in discrete packaging as well if you don't want to give the posty too many ideas when you take delivery. Hope this helps.

Yeah, been there, done that more than once myself (still do occasionally, but my warped sense of humour still finds it funny)

Do you just turned it round or get another one? you've kind of ruined that one now by touching your cock on the side that will go inside the lady.

Good point, well made. I personally always discard it and use a fresh one, I won't take the risk of ruining my health or anyone else's for the sake of a few quid. Hope others that have had this happen do the same.

Rachael,

Thank you for posting on this subject and for the information you have provided. I enjoy both giving and receiving. My active side seems to be popular with other tgirls where I try to read and touch what they both want and need. With the right person I can be completely the reverse. With both sides it is for me all about 'connection'.

For me wearing a condom or my active partner wearing a condom has never been a problem. I do not feel them, at all, if I or my partner is wearing one.

That said, using one which is as bit larger and thus easier to put on either me or my lover is a useful thought. Therefore, I will look for the larger size when I next go to the supermarket.

I enjoyed reading your profile and seeing your pictures.

Clare, X

Magnum xl's are great for me, they're some of the few that don't feel like your getting strangled

When I used them I always used large after being recommended them by the GUM clinic.

Never found Condoms to be a problem - use Pasante - Regular. Seem better than Durex, IMHO.

Skyns regular and large are all I use. Plenty guys I have given them to have gone on to solely use them. They're fab.

Have you seen the effort required to get them to do that initial stretch though?

You want them to just roll down your entire length and not feel like you're cock is in a vice.
