"Ribbed for her enjoyment"?

I've seen this (or something akin to this) on many a condom label, but do those little microscopic ribs really do anything for you ladies??

I know how wonderfully sensitive you wonderful ladies can be but can you or would you actually prefer one over another??:confused:
 
HELLS YEAH!!!

That's like asking what does a tongue do on a man's cock. The ribs most definitely make a difference. We can definitely feel it, and they play on our bodies like an instrument.
 
Maybe it's just me, but the few times I've tried it, I've never felt a difference. :( Maybe it was the brands I tried though...
 
I just wanted to know if it's an advertising gimmick for us guys to buy more of them in order to please the ladies!

And more importantly... does it work!???
 
Well sweetness, like I said, I bought them a few times, opened one just to feel it from the inside and outside and didn't even feel anything with my fingers, so I don't know...
 
Anything besides a very subtle resilence can really wear you thin after a while. I think, anyway. But it has made a difference for me. I'll ask my ex what condoms we used. Off the top of my head, I'm not sure.

You don't want to by Magnum XL's only for your man to tell you he can't fit into them, you know? :)

I could tell a difference, but it didn't really do all that much for me!

(and it could even be irritating for anal sex - avoid them for that, LE)

But I would think a resourceful man like yourself wouldn't need to use a gimmick -

;)
 
I could tell a little bit of a difference, but to be honest, it was annoying. Cocks don't have those little tiny ridgy things. It just reminded me that he was wearing a condom. :rolleyes:

But hey, LE...I'm sure you don't need any extras to satisfy your woman! ;)

Yes, I've tried them, and though I could feel a teeny bit of difference, it didn't add any more pleasure to the experience...
 
gf and i once used this one that had these dots on it, like little raised bumps. she said it was a wild feeling, and liked it a lot, but not something she wanted to do every time.
 
Never felt any different than any other condom. To me they are all the same. As long as the sucker stays on and has some spermacide for when one eventually breaks, they are all good.

The kind I keep in my toybag is superstrength. If they guy is not prepared, he has to put up with what I want.
 
Christ, am I the only one who can feel anything? Wow...maybe it's the boy and not the plastic.

Nah, can't be. The plastic toys are always better. :)

It never hurts to have a few extra bullets in the love arsenal though!

Maybe some "snow tires" like Orchid had suggested.:D
 
I had a girlfriend buy a cock ring with a little clit stimulator on it and she loved it, she siad it was the most fantastic feeling she ever had during sex, we have tried textured condoms and she siad it was interesting and good, but nothing that special, I bought a cock sleeve once and it had lots of big bumps and such (we bought a pack of them hehe) and it was a lot of fun, and it cuts down a little on the mans stimulation so you tend to last a lot longer, here is where I got mine take a look hehe, I think anyone could feel these.

If he stays only at the entrance to my vagina, I can feel them. Otherwise, I'm in the ranks of those who would rather do without. I have a couple of toys that have those stretchy silicone sleeves on them and even they are not worth the bother. They slip off while inside and then I spend 10 minutes trying to find it and fish it out. Not good.

LE, I really think this is nothing more than an advertising gimmick. Most people think women can feel every little bump and groove, but in reality, once a man is far enough in, the only thing we truly feel is the fullness or stretching that a penish brings about. My .02 worth? Just get the regular condoms.
 
I can feel stuff but I have always found the ribs a bit distracting. I prefer polyurthane comdoms because I can feel heat better with them. They just seem nicer.

now what if your man is finding xl's tight and restricting causing him to go numb..or do you think it could be the spermacide?

I think he is a liar and full of shit. You can take your average condom and put hyour hand in it to past the wrist. You can then blow the thing up to some monster size. If a guy is whining about it feeling too tight, that is like someone Going out to dinner and then bitching because they have to pay for it. If you want the sex, you gotta be responsible and you gotta not bitch about it. (Of course, lots of women buy this bullshit so I guess for the average guy, it is worth a shot to try. If it was really so awful, he'd never have put it on in the first place!)
 
I've not used those in YEARS. If I remember correctly, they irritated me. I liked the feeling after... the feeling I'd been really fucked... (of course I had, which would explain why my puss was irritated afterwards... ) So maybe it wasn't the ribbed condome after all.

Seriouly, I love the feeleing of a cock inside... feeling full does it for me... that and a nice rough hair pulling romp once in a while. oooh, and a hard cock being fed into my mouth... damn I'm horny!

but oh anyway, about the ribs... I think it may be great for some ladies, personally... I think they're overrated.
 
just because it can do that doesn't mean it's comfortable

I've been with a man who found Extra-large a little uncomfortable, but never to the point where he went numb. We remedied the situation by putting a little bit of lube INSIDE the condom, and that allowed for just a little extra motion...so he went from feeling slightly uncomfortable to hardly knowing he was wearing anything at all.

But then again, I also had a friend who was allergic to spermicide...though he got really irritated, never numb.

Is it really possible for a condom to be tight enough to make you go numb? Wouldn't you remove it before you got to that point?

well condoms take away a shitload of feeling for me personally but it actually made me go numb for several hours I mean the only way I was able to get erect was with my mind but that only brought it up momentarily..was 5 hours before it would stay for more then a few seconds but playing with myself did nothing since it was numb so I was forced to assume it was the condom.
 
honestly when in bed I really never care about my pleasure so I don't pay attention to my cock and just try to satisfy my partner.
 
Due to my size I have to admit I have had trouble with some condoms, but an xl fits me fine, I am quite large (look in my pics etc) and have never gone numb from a condom, I have found them restricting, they do reduce sensatiion, but good grief, no one ever said they didn't, they are there for protection, of course they reduce sensation........
