Thinnest condoms?

    I just started dating this new girll and the problem is that i can't remain erected for the whole thing. after a few minutes of intercorse i start to go soft.
    I blame this on being nervous in the biginning of the relationship but also the fact that she gets very wet which makes it harder to feel anything if you know wahat i mean?
    its kinda getting on my gf nerves as she thinks its her fault which it is not, shes lovely!

    My last gf was on the pill so I havent really used rubbers much

    I bought some Durex in the pub but they are too thick i think and i'm hoping to get suggestions on thinner condoms that will not be in the way like. I dont want to go in to a pharmasist and ask away like an eejit :(

    First off - you're being ripped off buying condoms in the pub. Buy them in a chemist or bulk buy from smartpaddy.com or the like. Save yourself loads.

    Secondly - Durex have a brand called Gossamer which are thin. Try them.

    Thirdly - don't just rely on condoms, your girlfriend should be on the pill too. Two methods are always, always better than one.

    You dont have to ask the chemist.Places like boots have them out on the shop floor. Also in condom packets usually there is also a leaflet with the different types made by the brand and the differences between them so you can research them before you go inYOu shouldnt be embarrassed to buy condoms!!!

    www.durex.com (I think there is a shop there which shows the products, unfortunately I cannot check as work internet considers condoms pornographic, dear god)

    So.. 9 months from now you'd rather look like an 'eejit' when you have a child and are explaining to your gf that you got the faulty condom from some dispenser in a pub because you were too embarrased to get proper ones in a pharmacists?

    You think they dont have people buying condoms every day? or that the rest of the world just doesnt use contreception, or its shunned upon?

    If i were in your situation, i'd rather apparently look like a fool to some person in a pharmacists and not end up with an unplanned pregnancy with a new gf, then otherwise.

    also you're risking getting a std/sti with those condoms if they're faulty and break.

    'hey, I know this is off topic but I didn't want to start for this one question - can you get different size condoms? you know, like bigger ones? I've never seen any in a chemist and the durex site doesn't seem to have an e-store for ireland'

    Try CondomPower on Dame St in Dublin - they stock larger sizes. Tell 'em AnonoBoy sent ya! :D

    Throjans ultra pleasure are my fav. There the only one's i use now. Get them in boots for around 14e for 10. Or only10e on http://www.smartpaddy.ie/acatalog/tro.htmlMore expensive than durex but in my opinion they are worth it!!

    The sensitive ones from Lidl are the most comfortable, most reliable that I've ever used believe it or not.

    i hate to say but the featherlite ones ripped on me once. never again. pleasuremax are good, and they are relatively big.

    i ordered 800 gossamer with a mate, worked out at about €80 euro or 10c per condom! The only con initially, was that it was a bit embarassing when my mum cleaned my room! Turned out to be a poor investment however, as my gf went on the pill and only told me after they had arrived! My mates get more pleasure from them than i do :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,595 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    which are thinner, gossamer, featherlite or the trojan Ultra pleasure? been using Featherlite, but would go for a thinner one if its available.

    The oral contraceptive pill not protect either partner's from sti or hiv like condoms will.
    The oral contraceptive pill is not suitible for everywoman.
    The oral contraceptive pill is not 100% efffective even when taken correctly.
    Condoms to not protect form all sti.
