science, you have failed me.

But my old fat wife still does.

/jk don't beat me

yes they do - that's a lie we need to squash....

I remember in middle school sex ed. thinking, why wouldn't someone wear a condom??? It's crazy?!!!!

Then when you become sexually active, you realize, its because it feels way worse with one - its shocking because you were never warned, then you start to wonder about the other things they taught -

just be upfront... look, this will make sex worse, but its better than sores on your penis... isn't it?

Lies!

/unless I'm putting them on wrong.

Condoms suck, you use them because you don't want a disease or a kid. Let's not lie about it.

Wearing a condom for sex is like wearing a rain coat to a massage.

Yeah... good for protection, not for enjoyment. Still, safer than the old spray and pray.

TFA seems to be addressing the idea that sex cannot be good if condoms involved but I've never heard anyone say that. Ever.

I'm pretty sure the best place to work in the world isn't in Indiana.

As much as the general consensus on condoms (even I think so) making sex dull, it's better that than to get a burning surprise the next morning, or a kid you don't want/not ready to raise.

Historian Smoker: You know how much condoms used to cost back in them days?
Thurgood Jenkins: How much?
Historian Smoker: I don't know, we never used 'em

Using a condom is like making mad passionate love to a surgical glove.

insertsnarkyusername: Condoms suck, you use them because you don't want a disease or a kid. Let's not lie about it.

Alternatively, condoms are awesome because they allow you to still have sex but worry significantly less about disease/pregnancy. It's all about what you compare it to. Compared to not having sex at all, they're pretty great.

When you're not getting any at all or you're getting it from so many different places that a disease is quite likely then condoms seem perfectly fine.

But once you're in a situation where neither of those apply it's a different game.

I don't mind condoms, I usually last longer with one on.

condoms are a necessary evil. And their commercials are ridiculous.

I've yet to meet a woman that:

1.- Is bi-curious
2.- Gladly gives head
3.- Says yes to anal (then again, it has never occurred to me)
4.- A combination of the three above

Condoms just plain suck.

This article must be sponsored by the condom industry.

I would rather have 1 good beej than have sex twice wearing condoms.

Why aren't we telling teens how much better sex is in an a relationship? Instead of telling them they need to use condoms for every encounter ever let's just tell them that these are necessary until you find a partner you trust who is on birth control? There is no reason we have to bring everything to the level of random hook ups.

Unfortunately condoms do not do much to protect you from the herp.

Takes 5-10 days for the burning surprise to hit.

Also, some of the more modern thinner condoms they market aren't as bad as the ones I remember from the 90s when I first started needing to use them.

puppetmaster745: I would rather have 1 good beej than have sex twice wearing condoms.

I think that would be the case with or without condoms in the equation.

Condoms absolutely make it worse. Will I wear them with a random? Sure. Someone I'm dating and we're both tested? Hell no. For the most part, I can't finish while wearing one. The exception being when I was 20 years old, they were great. They helped me last longer. But now that I'm 36 I have the opposite problem.

Well then I know that at least you weren't one of the people my ex cheated on me with.

/she was all 3.

My ex said she hated condoms as one of her main excuses to not have sex yet she had no problems getting farked by other guys before and after our relationship.

/You can't explain that.

Really? Is this a troll? I would say most of the girls I've dated have been #4.

Using data gathered in 2009 for the National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior -- a large, representative sampling of the United States conducted by a team of researchers that included Herbenick -- she and her colleagues teased out information from 1,645 men and women ages 18 to 59 whose most recent sexual event included intercourse.

Of those, nearly 28 percent of men and about 22 percent of women said they'd used condoms. That's higher than 2008 statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which showed about 10 percent of women used condoms as opposed to other birth-control methods or no contraception at all.

But the fascinating finding was that the reports of sexual arousal, ease of erection, overall pleasure and orgasm weren't much different in those folks than in people who went bareback.

In other words, people liked sex just fine with or without condoms.

Without: physically better, but only practical in a monogamous relationship

With: physically worse, but enables all sorts of possible hawtness that would not be safe without

Funny enough, 3.5, I have found, but when I've been in a bad financial issues (no job), so I never made a move. I just suck at dating.

In fairness the article is talking about good, and satisfied. It's not directly comparing. People who used them were satisfied... they got laid.

However, if compared to not using, I'm guessing most would prefer sensation without.

You fail to understand that there is a difference between feelings and actual physical contact. It makes no difference to the STD if you love the person or not. Calling something a relationship or "special" actually increases the incidence of STDs since introducing condoms in such relationships tends to stigmatize people as promiscuous. See the hard statistics regarding "abstinence only" programs.
