Anyone got any real suggestions here?

He loses it when I put a condom on him. Going on the pill for me isn't an option, I'm afraid-- or any other hormone birth control. He hates the condoms, but it seems like that or nothing. Definitely, DEFINITELY want no risks of pregnancies, I am not interested in having children. Any ideas?

There are things like diaphragms, cervical caps, and non-hormonal IUDs. Also, have you tried non-latex condoms? I've never had decent results with latex but the polyurethane ones were ok if absolutely necessary.

You might also use a contraceptive film.

Cap, coil or snip are your options. Snip is a big step, but the other two are do-able.

Do you mean loses his temper or loses his erection? If the former, then my main real suggestion is to get out of that situation as soon as humanly possible.

Loses erection, rofl!

I like the cling wrap idea. Use that and a rubberband?

Has anyone ever used a female condom? If so, what are your impressions of it?

Phew!

my history teacher said she used a cap on her wedding night and it pinged across the room when she was trying to get it in and they couldn't stop laughing!

... in class?

she *said* it in class, she did not give us a demonstration!

That would have been awkward.

Can I get a volunteer to help teacher?

I've never tried a female condom so I don't have an opinion on that. But especially if you tend to have sensitive skin be careful with contraceptive film. It made me ITCH and that is NOT a good area to be itching!!!

Don't find condoms that comfortable either, but as with all hormonal contraceptives, if you are on certain medications, like antibiotics, you need to double up.

I know a lot of guys loses the erection when the plastic is out, but if you learn to make it a bit more "fun" putting it on... you will be well paid.

One trick is to put it in your mouth (make sure it is no spermacide on it, prefer mint myself), push your tongue up to roof of your mouth so the tip is held tight and use your mouth and gentle finger strokes to "dress him up".

My husband and I have been married almost 6 years now and still we make sure to have condoms and waterbased KY gel at home. Since I keep our bedroom more or less as a freezebox, taking out the gel can have some fun effects too

My kiddo has just become sexually active and I made sure to send her home with a 40 pack. Remember being like a rabbit in that age myself.

I tried no latex condom and will never go back to latex ones.

first cause moisture is better with no latex and you will always feel the difference ... but using a condom is really important, really really important... i mean, nothing can ptotect you more than a condom against HIV and other diseases.

i stopped pills two years ago and had to go back to condoms with hubby and happy with the Manix Skyn ones ... really ... and yes there is fun ways to put it on the guy.

for the trick with the mouth, it's easy when you have a mouth bigger that the ... penis of the guy, which is not my case with hubby ... sorry for him

from a guys standpoint (and i know there have been a couple of those at least on here so far) i, personally have never felt a decrease in sensitivity for myself when i wear a condom...mind you, it has to be taken into consideration that i've never had sex without a condom, so i really can't compare it the sensation of sex with a condom to sex without one

there are a few reasons why i've always worn one, the first is that i've never slept with a girl who was on the pill (which sounds very odd and slightly unbelievable, i know, but still, this is the truth) and because i really don't think i'd make the best father (at least at the point i am now in my life and up until now too) so, no pill, i wear condom
another reason is that (although the situation hasn't come up yet) even if a girl is on the pill, my lack of desire to get a girl pregnant would make me still want to wear a condom...better safe than sorry and all that, and humans are liars by nature so there's always the chance that the girl (for one reason or another) might actually want to get pregnant and just not tell me that this was her plan
and also there is the cavalier nature of my penis, and the prospect of having my foreskin pulled halfway down my shaft due to friction scares the living hell out of me! i've had it happen before from a handjob, it is a truly unpleasant feeling, and an experience that i do not wish to repeat in the near future
and of course there is the plethora of diseases that a condom gives both me and the girl a better chance of neither contracting or spreading

also though, it has been mentioned that the taste of latex on a guy or a girl after they were wearing a condom is really quite horrible...i've gone down on a girl after sex and you're right, it is a disgusting taste, im pretty sure that the taste would be the same for a girl going down on a guy after he had a condom on...yeah, no good...but that's the only downside (from my point of view at least) for wearing a condom that i've found...but now reading some of the back posts on here, i can see that there is definitely a downside from the female point of view for many reasons

For this reason I can't use Trojans. I probably said this already...

This thread is a rather good argument for long term monogamy.

hear, hear! haha

Dudes, i call bullshit on this. It's meant as a nice little joke, i know. But seriously, guys. Monogamy won't solve problems that condoms will. Sorry. It's not about being monogamous. Some of us can't use the pill/hormonal contraceptives at all. So there's only one way to even do family planning. It's a little easy to assume condoms can be avoided if only you were monogamous.
Not so funny.
