But we should be aware of the proper way of wearing a condom otherwise it will be of no use.

Respect the ladies when they ask to use a condom

No matter how sexually active you are sex health is an important factor to think upon. After all pleasure is not everything that a person wants in life. Along with pleasure there are other important affairs in life. We have a responsibility towards each other and our children. We also owe a responsibility towards our society that has given us a lot. Sexual health is important as we have a right to be healthy and when women ask you guys to use condoms do respect them and not think otherwise.

During sex it is mostly the woman who undergoes more pain than the man, not only during sex but also afterwards. It is the woman who has to bear the child and take all the pains.

When a woman wants a man to wear a condom she has her reasons and that too justified reasons. First and foremost the woman thinks of pregnancy as after all she is the on who has to bear the pain and rear the baby initially, feeding and taking care of the child. Giving birth to a child is a great responsibility as you are getting new life to this world and you owe the duty of taking care of that child. When a woman wants a man to wear a condom she probably is not prepared to take the responsibility and she is cent percent correct as otherwise she would be giving birth to an unwanted child that is both treacherous for the parents and the child.

More importantly she has even greater concern of not getting HIV or any other sexually transmitted disease to either of the partners. Many men feel offended when a woman asks a man to use a condom. It is specially seen in the younger boys. You come across many young girls who say that their boyfriend got offended on insisting to wear a condom. Well wearing a condom is the best way to protect both the partners from sexually transmitted diseases. It has become even more important as we are not consistent with one particular partner. Most of us involve with more than one partner and will never know from where the virus came so it is the responsibility of each one of us to have safe sex so as not to harm us as well as our partners.

If the men feel that they do not get the real pleasure of sex with the use of condoms then they should use thinner condoms available in the market and especially the latex ones. They should keep in mind that other alternative methods do not protect you from HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases. If a woman has pills or injects for not conceiving yet there is a danger of getting the HIV virus to any of the partner.

Using a condom is unavoidable when sex is involved with prostitutes. There are sex workers who insist on the use of condoms. It is a very mature thought and men should respect it and use the condom as they too need a safe and healthy life. Moreover you are at a greater risk of getting the virus as maybe the sex worker had a sexual intercourse with a HIV infected man just before you and is unaware of it.

• Condoms should be stored in a cool dry place when not in use.

• The condom should be used before any type of sexual intercourse.

• Hold the condom on one hand and the base of the penis on the other so as to put on the condom correctly.

• Make sure that there is no air trapped inside the condom as it could break or tear the condom. Therefore squeeze the air out and firmly roll down the condom till the end.
• Stop the act right away if the condom breaks and use a fresh condom. You can always check in between if you feel that the condom has broken.

• While using latex condoms apply some water based lubricant as such condoms break if used with oil based lubricant. Oil based lubricants weaken the condoms and as a result there is damage done to the condom can use polyurethane condoms.

• The activity should be stopped immediately after ejaculation and the bottom of the condom should be held firmly with your hand while withdrawing so that no fluid is spilled out.

• Practice putting on a condom when you are not with your partner so as not to cause any embarrassment when you are with your partner about using it correctly and it is important to know because of safety reasons.

• The condom should be place before the partner’s penis touches the vagina or rectum.

• The smaller ring should be squeezed and inserted into the vagina, like inserting a diaphragm. The larger ring will go over the opening to the vagina to protect the outside sex organs from infection.

• The smaller ring should be removed while using in the rectum. The condom can be put over the partner’s erect penis and thus will be inserted into the rectum along with the penis.

• Remove the condom immediately after sex before standing up.
