Ahhhh the condom. Mention it and you can clear a room faster than yelling “FIRE!”
So what do we all have against this poor little piece of latex?
Well, it can be an awkward addition to a passionate event… sort of the third party of a love triangle you don’t want to deal with. But practically speaking, the condom should always be with you.
Women, listen intently to this… the condom is a WOMAN’S product! The condom is a very effective means of contraception, and helps to protect against Sexually Transmitted Diseases, including HIV. Women are at higher risk for most of these infections than men, simply because of the way we are designed… some 300,000 American women have HIV or AIDS alone, and there is a new diagnosis about every 30 minutes… by age 50 at least 80% of women will have acquired genital HPV infection… if the condom is there for contraception and to alleviate some of the spread of these viruses why aren’t more women carrying them?
It’s taken quite a bit of time to get to the point where women can take birth control without much social consequence. Now it’s the condom’s turn…to wait a little longer… if a woman carries a condom it places a stigma on her and conjures so many questions … why does she need to carry condoms? Is she looking for sex? Is she easy? A woman’s answers to these questions are her own, and no one else’s business unless she invites someone into her business. So while we all do our part to shift the stigma away from a woman taking care of herself, we can make carrying condoms a bit more discreet and a lot less embarrassing… There are so many products out there to alleviate this issue.
You can carry them in our luxurious condom compact, called Just In Case… looks like a make up compact, but has a secret compartment for two condoms. You can even open the compact and use the mirror without giving away your secret stash!

If you want to keep them near your bedside, take a look at the Devine Condom Cube. A cute little leather cube with a magnetic closure that will hold your condoms with a little more design flair than the box they originally came in. www.DevineToys.com - she has her vendors listed there.
Hate the packaging of the condom itself? Check out ONE brand condoms; a new brand with a designer flair. At first glance you may not even know what it is with it’s new round packaging and avant-garde graphics. We use them in some of our Just In Case II compacts...

We need to shift the paradigm for women carrying condoms. The new reason to carry a condom is self respect. The new reaction to women carrying condoms must be positive. There is nothing sexier and more attractive than a woman who takes care of herself in every aspect of life. A woman who gives herself the gift of self-respect and self-love, will require that from her partner, and that woman’s partner will return the gift by honoring her request for protection.
It’s a dance, when we’re unsure, we step on each others toes. When we know the steps, and follow the music, it can be the most beautiful time in your life. Keep it beautiful, keep yourself protected.

I agree 150%! Condoms, although awkward, are the first line against STD's and unwanted pregnancy. Of course you've got a friend that has a friend that has a horror story involving condoms. Who doesn't? I always have a few stashed in my purse along with a lipstick size tube of my favorite lube. At first it freaked my girlfriends out!! Little by little I've convinced them what a great idea this is. I'm not loose, I just want to make sure that when the time comes, I am prepared! Besides ladies...if we buy them, then we get to pick which ones are best for us!!
Good for you!!
Yes those condom stories!! I have a few of my own!
THere is a company called Empowered products and they created a lube called PINK... great stuff! and they are now packaging it in little squares that also fit in our compacts... so you can carry a lube and a condom! We feature it on our site as well... we will continue to keep all our ladies chic and discreet!
THanks for the comment!!

I don't know why it is such
I don't know why it is such a taboo thing for women. I started buying my own when I was dating my ex. My friends were envious that I wasn't too embarrassed! I started buying them for my friends (the kind with girly packaging) because they could not bring themselves to buy them, but they liked the idea of carrying their own. I guess there is the deep seeded belief that a woman who asserts her own sexuality is a slut or something.
All I know is that my boyfriend loved the idea that I carried my own. He thought it was super hot. Granted, since he and I broke up, I have had a big ol' stash of condoms that are about to expire, but I have them just in case! LOL!
I love that name.
Ladies, if you are embarrassed about buying your own condoms, you can always order online!

Hate buying them
To be honest - I hate buying them and I hate going to the store to buy them so much that I have actually ordered them on line, in bulk to avoid face to face confrontation.
And what is with the pharmacies now only selling these 12 packs? At least before,I could slip in a three pack right between the Colgate and the Raisin Bran and no one would notice. Now its only these 12 packs! My goodness - it looks like you're about to go on a spree. But I am sure these issues have been developed ala strict Catholic upbringing.
However, yes Condies are necessary. And for all the men who say, " I don't like latex" - there's polyurethene and lamb skin (although do not use lamb skin if you are not in a monogomous sexual relationship) or " I can't stay hard with it on", I say "Too bad".
I love those Trojan Supra's - they are polyurethane and there is no stinky latex smell afterwards. They are thin enough to feel like nothing.Only problem - they are not super stretchy so you kinda have to snag the man's member and get it on there if he's partially erect. If he's under 8 inches it wouldn't be a problem.

Number 2: POLYURETHANE in my vajayjay???? Are you serious? That can't be good.

Polyisoprene...
No no no... POLYISOPRENE in your vajayjay...
Paint your table with the polyurethane, do it on the table with a polyisoprene condom!!
