Hey Farzana,

You are forgetting that a lot of men are also very anxious about avoiding unwanted pregnancy and STDs. In the US there are legally enforceable child support payments for 18 years. In fact, they can garnish it from your paycheck. I don`t know the situation in India for single guys who get their girlfriends pregnant. In addition, most men are not into playing russian roulette with STDs, whether it is HIV or anything else. In the US, STDs like herpes is very common and you don`t have to visit a prostitute to get infected. Even an ordinary girl whom you have met and started dating may have it. So you have to be really dumb not to use a condom with your partner if you are not married.

Even for married people who are monogamous, there is the natural anxiety about avoiding an unplanned kid. So, if someone feels very potent about having unprotected sex and getting a girl pregnant, that person is either very reckless or a total moron.

My personal experience is that condoms enhance your sexual experience. Primarily it is because your partner can relax without the stress of getting pregnant or catching a disease. So they can get into the mood and enjoy it more. A high quality condom reduces the sensations only somewhat, so it is a good tradeoff. Also some of the ribbed condoms are very pleasuarable to a woman. Often my wife cannot handle the intensity when I use these condoms.

So are you saying that women dont enjoy it with condoms/????!!!

Farzana, an unusual topic and as such, a welcome distraction from all the geopolitical, religious stuff. Still, this IS a political topic - men (many that i know) don`t like to wear a condom since it does reduce the sensation. Flavored condoms? Must be the product of the fervid imagination of a female somewhere! It can only be a novel item. Japanese condoms are the priced items.
Condoms are usually in the men`s toiletry section, along with shaving items and such, at drug stores in the US. I haven`t looked in the female health section but will do so now that you mention it. There also are female condoms that the developers hope will put the control back in the woman`s lap in this age of AIDS.

Farzana,

I just read the heading of the article along with the brief teaser on the main page. You are hilarious!!! :)
