What is the best gay condom?
I have had the most terrible case of writers block, you don’t even want to know. I feel bad because I had said I would be able to write, but these past few weeks I have just been so caught up in everyday dramas and tasks that writing seemed like an impossibility.
Anyway, I’ll try to write more often, but I make no promises- because when I do, the promise itself seems to repress my readiness to write.
Anyway, I’ve been thinking lately about the question of condoms. Everybody keeps hoping a cure or vaccination against HIV and AIDS is right around the corner, and maybe it is, but for now it’s condoms, condoms, condoms all day long.
I know it’s crazy and dangerous, but I have been having more bareback sex this past year. And, as everybody in the world knows, sex without a condom is a much richer and more sensually complex experience. It’s fucking addicting, is what it is. I’ve been a “responsible gay man” much of my adult life, and used a lot of condoms, but these recent bareback fucks have made me do some thinking about the best gay condoms.
I’m not sure I’m using the best condom, to put it in a nutshell. I still mostly use the condom brand that I started using in college, and I haven’t experimented and tested all that much. Now I’m wondering if I have been using the right condoms, and if there are condoms out there that would be just as safe but give me a better sensory experience.
I typed “best condoms” into google, and the first page was this one:
7 best condoms
Which seems to be more oriented to straight men, and has all these crazy condoms that I personally had never seen before - Stuff like this:
“Trojan Twisted Pleasure
This condom comes with a very different design. It has been moulded with a special twist starting at the middle of the condom and ending at its tip. This patented twist allows for a small amount of space between the condom and the penis, and during penetration creates extra friction for both partners through the free movement of the latex material.”
Damn, I feel like such a fogey. When did condom technology pass me by?
So, anyway, if you are reading this and have an opinion on the best gay condoms, rubbers with the ideal mixture of safe sex and pleasure, please leave a comment to let me know what your opinion and experiences are. What do you think is the best gay condom?
I’m going to be making some tests, and hopefully in the next weeks or months I’ll have a new favorite condom to talk about.
