Recommend me some condoms!

    So this might seem like an odd thread, but I was wondering if you guys could help me find a suitable brand of condoms for me.

    Recently I have found that Durex brands have the right girth, but not the right length, so the condoms generally don't roll down the full way, so I find myself having to look down quite a lot, just to make sure they haven't rolled the whole way up and come off entirely, which has happened on a few occasions. I've also tried Boots brand condoms and these have the length, but not the girth, and have found these to be way too tight, sometimes causing me to lose my erection as a result.

    Does anyone else have this same problem and, if so, which condoms would you use?

    just use a roll of tarpaulin, myself

    Quite seriously none of us know how similar our dimensions are, so can't advise.

    Personally I don't like the condom to be rolled all the way down because you can actually feel er, stuff when there's a bit uncovered.

    Also, if the condom comes off you'll know about it pretty soon. Sex without a condom obviously feels way better different.

    Is it way better without one?

    Imagine eating your favourite dessert with a piece of rubber coating the inside your mouth. You still get full, but yes it's less pleasurable.

    Ive deleted a couple of "humorous" posts.

    I never use them, hate them. I've never caught an std.
















    3 kids though :)

    Ok, after otis's comment about joke posts just above this, some helpful ideas...

    get a few different types, non durex. Mates are one brand.
    Look online, or in boots. Don't think I'd bother with the 'sex' shops in town (dublin) I was in one on capel street at the weekend, asking about condoms*, hadn't a clue, and only stocked durex. I needed non latex, girl didn't even know they existed! I got some in boots.


    *Never use them, but will have to for the next few months

    Magnums are the best IMO.

    Try the Passte or Avanti condoms, both can be got in boots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,253 ✭✭✭jackofalltrades


    Trojan Magnums, or if their too small go for the Magnum XL's.
    You can get a sampler pack which has the full Magnum range.

    If you don't want to buy online the only shop I've found in the country that sells Trojan Magnums is Condompower on Dame st.

    You could also try this company which offers a measuring tape that you can print out on their website. So you can be sure of getting the right size.

    there's a website that sells custom sized condoms, can't remember what they're called but they deliver to anywhere in europe. And not anymore expensive than durex. Just google it and see what ya find.
