What is it with all these fancy condoms being advertised like candy??! Really, vibrating ones, ‘her pleasure’, extra slim…what ever happened to getting down and dirty the old fashioned way? Sex is way to whored out these days (ignore the pun)

They have vibrating condons!?!? Finally I might be able to please a woman!!
What are the three best ways to please a woman?
Who cares????
HAHAHAHA seriously, OP- maybe women are sick of your knob tasing like week-old bread or piss cocktail.
They’re all crap. I’m sorry but I’m not going to use a sex toy that you can buy at shoppers or wally mart!!
the real and scary answer to this is that condom sales are down and the companies are trying to make condoms a hip accessory in the bedroom, even if its a committed relationship they are trying to market the fancy condoms more as a sex toy than a STD/baby preventer.
With more birth control ( chemical ) options on the table these days and fewer people using condoms for safety reasons they are trying to take it from another angle ( another angle…..anyone? rimshot? ) in the marketing department. STD’s are on the rise but people are not freaking out anymore like they first did in the early 90’s when aids hit the scene.
Its like toothbrushes and floss, ever see how fancy these two simple items have gotten the last 20 years?
its just to keep us buying and spending. Now if they could just make a commercial were they imply Swin flu is somehow sexual transmitted they could be sitting on a gold mine!
when the fear wears off, the next thing on the list is to make them cool. I hear the new trojans have an IPOD dock station so you can play barry white and get it on at the same time.
I like the different varieties out there.
Imagine if we only had one type of potato chip flavour – potato! No ripples or wedges or anything, just potato flavoured chips.
Would get kind of boring really quick…..
Haven’t a vibrating condom but I did see a vibrating gelly toy last night at a work shop thingy. May invest in one for myself now….
I normally just use a Doritos bag with an elastic band.

Damn….
sex is over rated……
I know! Foreplay is so much better….
“sex is over rated……” (this is me shuddering like a cold wind blew through)
LOL
AWESOME
I much preferred the good olde days when a strong animal intestine was all ye needed.
lovinglife, hit it on the nail. They reinvent their product lines to produce sales much like any other industry. I don’t see what’s so ‘whored out’ about that, tho.
Variety is great, even with condoms and really who gets offended over the concept of safe sex? You want to have pleasurable sex, you want your partner to be satisfied, you want it to be safe and you don’t go for chemical birth control. Simple enough.
Unfortunately, refinedsugar, there are people who get offended by condoms. There are people out there who think any form of contraceptive is cheating God, even condoms. They’d rather push the failure that is abstinence education on teens and turn a blind eye as they fuck each other silly, then actually prevent them from getting STIs and pregnant.
These same dipshits are the ones who oppose giving the HPV vaccine to young girls because they think it’s going to make them have sex sooner.
I fucking hate religion.
I think kay wrote this.
FUCKING EH Nevermind, I was going to say the same thing as you but read your comment and fucking lost it laughing.
Awsome.
That was a pun?
“I know! Foreplay is so much better….” NGF
foreplay = when yorkke is eating the Doritos, elastic band at the ready.
Let the gentle dance of seduction begin
Bahhahaha
Ewww…down and dirty is Reflections.
Thanks 1FA1. If only I was joking… 🙂
