    Barely there condoms condoms, safe sex | (6)
    The biggest issue people have with condoms is that using them doesn't feel as good as skin-to-skin contact. Which, admittedly is true... Although STIs are no picnic and it's certainly better to be safe than sorry. Durex has come up with a range of barely-there condoms which should help. Durex Deluxe and RealFeel allow for the transfer of body heat, meaning you should be hardly able to feel them. Neither are made with latex, so that's good news for those who are allergic. The Deluxe is the thinnest condom ever made. The Fetherlite Ultra is latex, but only 50 microns thick, ...

    Half-price Condoms at Tesco condoms, News, safe sex | (4)
    I do love a good deal, especially in these recessionary times so I was pleased to see that Tesco are selling condoms at half-price. As you well know, condoms are more expensive in Ireland than across most of Europe, but as Tesco themselves would say... every little helps. And as we are heading into the summer festival season, the timing couldn't be better. Durex's Performa, Sensation, Tingle and Pleasuremax condoms normally costs €9.95 for 12, and are currently on sale for a very reasonable €4.97, and if you felt like trying out the Durex Play Vibration vibrating ring, this is also ...

    Crazy 2 condom limit in NY, DC and San Fran condoms, sex laws, sex work | (2)
    The mind boggles... Carrying more than two condoms in your handbag in New York, Washington DC or San Francisco means police can arrest you as a possible sex worker. Which means, if as a responsible adult, you stop on the way home and buy a small pack of condoms, you're risking arrest. Crazy! It also means that actual sex workers will be forced to work without protection, spread disease. Madness... Read about it here.

    Ever been too embarrassed to buy condoms? condoms, safe sex | (8)
    According to an online survey, one in ten people have unsafe sex because they are too embarrassed to buy condoms. That's awful but I sort of understand. Once, during my first sexual relationship, the boyfriend and I went into a chemist to pick up the necessary, but the old battleaxe behind the counter chased us out saying they didn't stock "that filth"... For years I was a little bit embarrassed about buying them myself, delegating it to whomever I was sleeping with, as a "man's job" but on the occasions I did, I felt the need to buy all sorts of ...

    Pope Condom anyone? condoms, safe sex | Comments Off
    Oh dear... If you're a good practicing Catholic you won't approve of this (or anything else on this blog for that matter), but some crafty joker has put the pope on a condom packet . You have to admit it's kinda funny... Although this is not the face I'd like staring up at me during a delicate moment...
