i don't *only* use condoms, but since i'm not in a monogamous relationship, i do use them with relative frequency... I like Trojan Ultra-Thins, myself.

Trojan Ultra-Thins, here. Aside from the "Ultra thin" part, they're shaped better so they don't get too tight around the base, which is a complaint I often heard about condoms.

I'm on Nuvaring... but I'm too paranoid to have unprotected sex all the time... so..

Trojan Ultra Thins... mainly because for some reason I'm allergic to Durex.

Trojan Mangnums. As far as I know they are the only large size? I haven't looked into it too far though.

I like Lifestyles Ultra Thin the most. But Beyond Seven - Studded is good for a change.

Durex Extra Sensitive condoms are good, but my partner and I also like Inspiral condoms and Naturalamb :)

Durex extra sensitive. My fiance tried the Trojan ultra thins and definitely prefers the Durex.

Beyond Seven.

Trojan or Lifestyles Ultra Thin with lube. :)

I can't have that warming lube shit or any spermicides, they give me a burning rash inside my coochicoo and I can't do anything for like a week after I use them. Ugh. :(

It's been a while since I've used condoms, but I used to love Tuxedos. They're black!

I also loved Kimonos. Ultra thin, studded, Japanese condoms.

We tend to use Magnums by default as they're readily available and my primary partner has a very broad peen. I don't really like Trojans, however, as they feel unecessarily thick."One" brand larger size condoms are the ideal.

i like beyond sevens and four seasons. they're the closest to the real thing. all trojans dry me out and they never feel quite right.

honestly, I think if my boyfriend could buy a variety pack, he would.

when we use condoms, he usually has two or three piles behind his bed, and he knows which is which in the dark.

I think, but am not sure.. we use these wall-of-china climax control condoms, I think they might be trojans but I'm not sure. they suck. lmao. we both get tired and end up scrapping the condom by the end of it.

He also has sensi-thin ones or whatever.. WTF WHY OPPOSITE CONDOMS. lmao. i think he likes these best.

and then he has those "twisted pleasure" ones that really don't make a difference for either of us, and tend to try to fall off.

I think whenever we run out he just buys the brightest packages, and then coordinates them and has some weird system of deciding when to use each kind.
and he expects me to buy condoms sometimes. lmao.

Back in those now awful-seeming pre HBC days, my boyfriend always preferred Trojan Ultra Thin or whatever it's called. The extra thin Trojans. I bought some Durex Extra Sensitive once, which are all of like .007 micrometers thicker or something, but he didn't like them. Oh well!

PS Buy your condoms at Target! They are insanely cheap there.

Definitely Durex extra sensitives. For the most part I'm not terribly picky about condoms--he's the one wearing it, so it's a question of his comfort and sensitivity--but I hate regular Trojans. They have this unpleasant strong latex smell, which "rubbed off" and lingered very noticeably on both of us (meaning forget about post-PIV oral sex!).

The Durex ones were a huge improvement for that issue, and being that they're the extra sensitive variety, they're much thinner, which felt much better for him and (somehow) for me as well. I was concerned about the thickness at first, but I have used these for a few years and with partners of various sizes, and never had one break.

i have always hated trojan condoms with a passion. I always feel wicked dry whenever I try to use them and then sex just becomes painful. My absolute favorite brand is durex extra sensitive. It feels like the guy doesn't even have a condom on. My other favorite is Lifestyle ultra thins.

Trojan Supras, polyurethane is a much better friend to me than latex.

I like trojan ultra-thins, but we're still looking for a condom that actually fits instead of shrinking wrapping his member (magnums were too small, so we've got maybe 2 or 3 left to try...).

when i used condoms for contraception, i (and my partner) really like kimono ultra thins.

Am I the only one opposed to the Ultra-Thins...? This kind was the first kind to ever break on us.

I don't have much experience with different brands of condoms. My boyfriend likes sticking to Trojan (our favorite is Warming Sensations - which is discontinued now, apparently). We've tried Durex, but they were the school-handouts type, so they weren't that great. I want to try the One condoms, and I'm curious about Lifestyles (but no one in this post has mentioned them). But my boyfriend is very stubborn and he doesn't like trying new things very often. I'll have to be the one to buy them next time. ;)

My man and i never used anything except the durex regular old lubed condoms, and it was good, i guess cuase we never had used anything different.

But then one day we decided not to use one, since we didn't have one, and were very horny (monogamous, HBC, been tested together).

And since then, after it felt so good, we have been searching for the condom that will make it feel condom-less! Closest we've come is Trojan ultra thins.

I use the Female Condom and I was lucky to find a Rite Aid that has them!

Regular condoms "choked" my hubby a lot and well he needed more room. The Female Condom provided him that extra room for him, extra protection for me and greatly improved contact between us.

It's been wonderful so far :)

I used to use Durex Sensi-thin, but now i'm with a more well endowed guy, and after trying a bunch of brands we swear by Kimono Maxx. :)
