CONSIDER THE VENERABLE CONDOM
Written by a guy who regularly shares his wife


Condoms.......yes condoms.  Hardly the subject of erotic activity, either in video or print.  

But there is a purpose for the condom, even in the days where women's birth control is easy and reliable.   That purpose if prevention of STD's and AIDS, with maybe serving as a birth control device occasionally.

Presently, there is only an occasional print headline proclaiming an incident of a male passing on an STD or AIDS to a partner, significantly different than a couple decades ago.  And, occasionally, porn films do show a male penis wrapped in a condom as it penetrates his partner.  But this scene is infrequent, although becoming more frequent.  

Recently a law is being considered to require male porn actors who appear in film to wear a condom, and the porn industry has threatened to move out of LA, the porn video hub, if the law is passed.  The industry's argument is that sales of videos will crash if male actors must use condoms, and that applies all around the world.  Erotic literature does not feature an erotic description of the male dressing his penis in a condom because, this description enjoys the same feelings as those for videos.


On a personal level, if a condom is going to be used  -  
A bit of preparation is required.  

The condom must be acquired and brought to the love-making venue.  The condom should be placed so that it can be grasped quickly without having to go look for it.  No matter where it is placed, there will be a break in the action required to pick up the package, open the foil, unroll the condom a bit to make sure it will roll correctly over the penis, unroll the condom over the penis, and then get back into position to penetrate the vagina.  Not exactly what both partners would want to do when inserting the penis 

`NOW' is just what the partner wants at that moment.  And then there is the deadened feeling for the male with the condom covering the penis, and the lack of feeling of the ejaculation and warmth of the semen inside the vagina of the woman, something many women desire and enjoy.  No creampies will be left, unless the condom is removed or emptied, and the used condom is still left to be disposed of.


So, is there anything that can be said in support of condom use?  

I think there is.  I have seen women who can place the condom in their mouth and then, taking the penis into their mouth, pull back, and the condom has been neatly unrolled onto the erection.  That act is extremely erotic and appreciated by the male partner.  

When hooking up with sexual partners with whom the male or female has no knowledge of their sexual health, the condom provides some safety from STD's and AIDS until some testing or history is established.  The condom can also provide a visual treat for the partners, such as wearing a black condom by a white male, it can change the way the penis feels to the woman's vagina if it has ridges or some stimulation device, and it can reduce or eliminate the `wet spot' that forms in the bed as the semen leaks out of the vagina.

I have tried to approach my opinion of condom use from the perspective of a mature male who can remember when boys and young men were afraid to purchase a box of condoms from the pharmacy clerk, when condoms were called `rubbers', and when boys and young men carried condoms in their wallet for so long that they were bound to fail if they were ever used.  

But I can appreciate the woman who takes the male's penis deep inside their vagina, bareback, and enjoys the stream of semen deposited inside.  In most cases, condom use is probably just for occasional instances where prior sexual history is unknown, or where condom use adds some erotic sensation desired by the partners.  

Like my wife tells me, "There is no feeling like having my lover fill my vagina with his cum, and to then bringing it home for you to consume."  That act for her is much more erotic and enjoyable, because she is utilizing her vagina and not a condom to transport her `gift'.
