Trojans feel like you have "Tire thickness rubber on" spend some time on figuring out what works for you.
There are a bunch of great ones out there.
I personally hate Trojans you can't feel anything through them. Although sometimes that's a good thing.. (they even have the special desensitizing ones) for those special times when you don't want to be too quick on the draw.
 
What's the shelf life on condoms, assuming they are kept in a cool, dry place?

I rarely use them nowadays other than when the wife forgets to take her pill, but once in a while they are, ah, sorely needed 🙂

Hey, somebody's gotta do an extensive critique on these for Amazon.com, tongue in cheek (!) or not.... hehe
 

It's too bad that the condom companies cannot be held responsible for issuing shoddy products in cases where they do break when used properly resulting in unwanted and extremely expensive (aka life-destroying, for a man) pregnancies. Sadly, as I understand it, you cannot sue a condom or birth control company for a product failure. On the otherhand, if it were legally possible to do it, it could have the negative result of driving the prices of birth control items up sky high.

Perhaps it's just best to have some sperm cryogenically frozen and to then get a vasectomy.

You realize double/triple bagging it is NOT a good thing and can actually increase the chances of sperm getting through, don't you? The friction between the layers of condoms can cause them to tear, thus making it pointless to even use them if you do double/triple bag.
 
Thanks OP, this is a great way to not have to have ths scuzzy wal mart checkers smile and say, have a great night when I buy condoms.

For a MAN it's life-destroying?!?!?! Yeesh! Pregnancy isn't exactly good for your health as a female and women still die, lose their uteruses, or end up with damaged urethas/no bladder control as a result of giving birth. And you think it's life-destroying for a man?!? You might end up being obligated by law to pay (though plenty of men skip or skimp on that end) for any child, but the woman *must* pay for the majority of expenses assuming you're not supporting her and she's the one with her health at stake.

Have you ever heard of episiotomies, preeclampsia, embolisms, or an inverted uterus ? These can all be results of going through pregnancy and/or labor. Oh and don't forget C-sections aren't exactly minor surgery... there's no micro-mini-surgery possible in this case. The doctors are cutting through layers of tissue and muscle and the actual organ to get to the baby.

I agree that condom makers generally should be held responsible for producing products that work like they say... but they cannot guarantee 100% effectiveness (and they don't). Even with perfect usage (and how exactly are they going to disprove your claim if you say you used it right?) things still happen, e.g. maybe there was just a bit too much friction, or what if the packaging was stored improperly after they shipped it off to the retailer? Birth control pills are not 100% effective either. Sometimes the woman's hormones just aren't cooperative that month, and that's all it takes for the pill to fail.

I am with you in sentiment, but I'm not exactly appreciative of your first thought that the worst part is "extremely expensive pregnancies (aka life-destroying) for a man." Expensive for a man, maybe. Potentially life-threatening (aside from your gf/wife/SO wanting to kill you? No.
 
Mmm, if your rubber breaks maybe you should think about a morning-after pill.

I have to agree, I was disturbed by that "life-destroying" phrase concerning a man's role in failed birth control. However, having been through this in a big way I feel I should point out that it can be a very damaging event for a man. Yes, many men have walked the other way, etc. and the effects, I'm sure, vary considerably from man to man. Every situation is different, every man different, every woman different too. Having been through it, I find it very very hard to put myself into the shoes of the so called "right to life" advocates. In my view they are entirely hypocritical. Yeah, I know, that's another thread entirely.
