Right!? Haha. I was at first same

Done! Almost 8 years now. It's wonderful 🤤

A properly fitting condom will not slip off with a **drop** of lube in it! Oh my goodness

Use water based lube, not oil based. If the condom won't stand up to water based lube, it's not going to stand up to bodily fluids.

That’s easy… never use oil or oil based lubes with a condom. Silicone or water based lube is fine. Most lubes are water based.

Use water based lube....

That's why you use a water based lube. Also where I live most condoms come lubricated inside for the men

You can totally use lube inside and outside condoms as long it is purely water based (ie: no added silicone). Water based lube does nothing to latex or latex alternatives and will decrease chance of breakage due to making sure everything is smooth sailing. I'm a woman, and 100% NOT joking.

Lube is safe for latex. Fat isn't. Even hand cream can damage the condom. Use water or silicon based lube and everything will be fine.

Sister I feel you, the smell is the most off-putting aspect. Plus it throws off my natural pH & I swear I can smell rubber Everytime I pull my pants down for hours afterwards, even if I shower. But maybe that's just in my head?

im about.... 2 months late (it's fine, just roll with it). latex and oil do not mix, so oil based lubes are off limits, but water based ones can be used

I hate condoms. Love being married.

You have to pick the right type of lube. Some are safe for latex, some are not.

Oh oh god i sorry your innocent

oh so innocent

Actually it's not silicone-based, as they will degrade the condom. It's actually water-based lube you DO want to use. Same rule applies to toys especially! - friendly advice from a sex-ed teacher at nonprofits. (:

You want water based, latex based ones can affect the condoms

not oil based, water based ones are the ones that can be used

Why don't you get a vasectomy you miserable parasite

The men aren't the ones entitled

Those for women aren't either.

You're both right, first of all there's not just one male birth control pill that they've been working on there's multiple and two of them are still in the works. There definitely was a birth control study that was ended because of side effects that are nothing compared to what many women deal with with female birth control. I think that the decision was that men wouldn't be as invested because of course they're not the ones who https://www.bbc.com/news/health-47691567

Not to mention deaths.

A minor snip that's a helluva lot safer than a pregnancy is. There's a doctor that literally gave himself – himself – a vasectomy, on a video done by The Daily Show. And do you know how many women DIE every DAY from pregnancy? Over 800! How many guys die from a vasectomy, hmm? Ever? Before you answer that question, look up the fact that vasectomy is actually associated with a *reduction* in mortality from all causes. ALL causes. That's the *opposite* of what *either* pregnancy *or* contraception does for women, BTW. Quit. Whining. Men have it magnitudes better than women, in this as well as so many other things.

Oddly enough, speaking of medical care, vasectomy is actually associated with a *reduction* in mortality, from ANY and ALL causes. And yeah, that's from actual scientific studies... multiple studies. No need for edu sites when you have studies from journals like the NE Journal of Medicine. 😄

And I think you need to actually look up the information on how vasectomy reduces mortality in men from all causes. They'd actually be healthier, LOL! If kids are so important (as if this planet needs any more people piled on top of each other), freeze some of their little buddies before the fella gets the minor little outpatient procedure! 😄
