2 condoms
I don't see the problem in not wearing a condom if you think the sex is worth dying or killing for.
I, personally, think that allprecautions should be taken.
ok, condoms alone are pretty tight, not too uncomfy tho, but you already are losing feeling of being inside her... imagine have 2 on... what are you going to feel? What is she going to feel?
Odd. I never had a problem with slipping on a glove... Hmm. Guys these days are so so selfish. I don't want to get my girl knocked up, so I wear the armour of the Trojan man when I go at it. (Well, I did anyway. She started taking BC. Yeh, I know. "You should still use a condom, foo'." Well, people should do alot of things. Take out the garbage on trash day, donate money to the poor, attend church regularly... etc. Now... do we?
Nice research, wiseman. As I said in my initial post on this subject, I can't imagine getting a guy to wear two. I have had potential sex partners who refused to wear one. Needless to say, they never fulfilled their potential.
I'm sort of surprised that in all my vast experience(lol) that I have never run into the topic.

I don't profess to be an expert, but I do recall that Lady is correct in her statement. However, I cannot find any information to prove or dis-prove the conflicting advice being given here.
Can anyone else?
Okay, Rawbob. I'll have to take your word for it. Would like to know some statistics on how much more effective it is than just using one. Also, how much does it cut down on sensitivity? And, if enough people are doing this, why not manufacture a condom within a condom ready for sale?
Actually, wearing 2 condoms is a GREAT IDEA! It's not uncommon at all....it's called "Double bagging" and for many folks it's an additional barrier to STD's and pregnancy!
Not really a bad question. But I'm afraid the answere is no. Besides, it's usually hard enough to get guys to wear one; imagine trying to convince someone to wear two!lol
Just make sure you use the first one correctly- water-based lube, only use once, etc...
A quick "Google" turned up practically nothing with respect to scientific evidence on doubling up. Here is a response from some article:
According to Health Canada, wearing two condoms can increase the risk of them tearing and even having the top condom slipping off into the abyss of your partner's ass or vagina! That would be fun to fish out, eh? After talking with a variety of sources, the overwhelming response rules AGAINST the practice of wearing two condoms. Their explanation is that during sex, an excessive amount of friction will occur between the condoms and increase the likelihood of either, or both, condoms breaking. Some people like using two because it desensitizes the guy and makes him stay hard longer and cum a lot less sooner, but are you really willing to run the risk of getting a nasty surprise (by that I mean a baby and a good, old-fashioned case of herpes) just so that you can f*** for an extra 15 minutes? I am sorry to report that this won't help in your quest for safe sex, but with LOTS of lubrication and minding the expiry dates on condoms, you should be able to stay relatively safe while having great sex.
From the few things I found, there really doesn't seem to be any proven upside to doubling up.
okies cool thank yous!
