exactly. people ask questions about condoms when they have problems with them - breakage or allergies to latex or size issues. they don't ask what they are, where they go, or what their purpose is. because they know.
i think it also has to do with the fact that condom companies have a pretty big image in the media (tv commercials especially!), whereas other pregnancy prevention methods, well, don't. besides hormonal birth control.
the closest i've ever seen as a question about condom usage is people asking how to put them on with their mouths (which i don't think i am nearly dexterous enough to manage, haha).
