hello again, everyone. this time my question is mostly for the men out there. my boyfriend told me that condoms make things feel a little looser than they really are. he says he knows that i'm not loose, because when his fingers are in me, it feels pretty tight, it's just when his condom-covered member is inside me, it doesn't feel as tight. i know it's not a ploy for him to get out of wearing a condom, because soon i'll be on birth control and he won't need to wear one anymore, and he knows that, so i'd appreciate it no one tells me what an idiot i am for falling for this line. okay, thanks everyone!

The only absolutly shure way to prevent pregnancy is a hysterectomy. The pill takes as much as two montha to attain full protection, which is not 100%. The reason that the BF says you feel looser with the condom is the extra lubrication.

a real answer to your question
Well first my question would be, is he using lubricated condoms? If so, that is the reason behind that. More than likely that is what he is using. Have him try a non-lubricated condom and see if that help out any. And yes I am a guy. Hope I helped.

I'm inclined to agree with the lube or the lack of lube theory. Have him try a lubed condom next time and then another with a non-lubed condom. There might be the biggest difference right there.
Or it could just be as simple as to what positions you guys are engaged in. There's all kinds of variables that could make him feel that tightness, but why take the chance of pregnancy. Have him wear the condom... work it into your lovemaking routine. Try different kinds & different brands; there are minute differences & the only way to find out is to experiment.
Good luck!

Great suggestions there, Wiggles!
Those admittedly do look interesting & now I'm just gonna have to try those out. But I've always been curious of the line "Ribbed for her pleasure"... can you actually feel that much more as opposed to regular smooth condoms? Those little ridges seem mighty tiny (and while attention to small details is nice)... do they work?
BTW- wonderful picture Wiggles. I had to follow the thread to your pics & they are great!

It takes a while for a person's body to adjust to any type of hormone therapy (which is what the pill is - a daily dose of hormones to help control the female reproductive system). Some people take longer than others to adjust to things like this. The first time i was put on the pill it took 4 months for my body to adjust and get used to it, and even then it was just the beginning of the whole process.
Also, keep in mind that the pill is never fully effective. If you have any doubts read my other post in this thread. It doesn't always work. Trust me.

Even if you are on the pill, I wouldn't allow your BF to stop using the condoms...it's just not worth the risk of pregnancy. I've had sex both with and without a condom and although it does feel better w/out it is definetly not worth the risk. I've know two friends who thought they were completely safe on the pill and ended up getting pregnant. Just a word to the wise.
Plus a condom eliminates alot of the mess! (Although I'm sort of a neat freak)

Try the spiral condom it may make a difference. My lover swears by them. Also even if you are using the pill since most are minidose kind it is easy to have problems. Like if you have the flu and get sick or are on antibiotics. Another very real reason to keep using them is that of STD. The pill will not protect you against them. The rates of STDs are raising again and it is not worth a risk to your reproductive health. Genital warts have been linked with cervical cancer and hepatiis can be transmitted via intercourse.
I have two girlfriend who are currently having trouble getting pregnant as a result of infections that were undectected and left them with scarring. When you think about it the pros outweigh the cons.

There's nothing sexy about having an STD that I can think of! AGH! Keep looking until you find the right kind of condom for you. Don't be afraid to try different kinds.

I agree with entitled and the rest. FYI, I know entitled... *waves hi*
I've been on the pill since I was 18... my mom was a nurse. best advice is to read the little instruction packet, talk to your m.d. and go to a medical website (www.webmd.com).
'sides, you can never be too careful.

I agree with cricketbug. I've been on the pill for 2yrs and have had no problems other than having to change brands when I first started cause they made me sick. I'd visit the MD and discuss bc options and keep using the condoms, try different kinds. Good luck

Just to answer the original question, yes, it does feel completely different for the guy while wearing a condom. I don't feel nearly the sensation as I do when going bareback; in fact most of the time I have to pull out, take the condom off and find another way to finish. A suggestion: you might try noting the time of month. I know that there are certain times (just before & soon after) when it is supposed to be next to impossible to get pregnant.
