I have only tried latex, but yes there is a difference. There is something about the moistness, and warmth you can only feel with one on one contact. However, the benefits of feeling penis to vaginal wall contact, is not greater than the benefit of not having the burden of early pregnancy and disease :) .

Fortunately for me, my wife doesn't like condoms; she likes the intimate feeling, so I am lucky in this case. However, if she insisted on condoms, I would wear it. Because then the next question would be, does it feel better to have sex with a condom, or no sex at all. The answer is obvious...:)

A big difference!!!

I too thought there would not be much of a difference, but the warmth/texture/moisture is all something you just don't get with a condom on.

A better way to put it than 'condom or no condom?' would be 'mental satisfaction or physical satisfaction?'

That is how I look at it, although not wearing a condom seems to increase the 'connection' between you and your partner. That also ends up being a deciding factor, although, being a nervous person, it is a bit of a challenge to choose.

For the record: Never take the risk of condom-free sex if you don't know the signs your body gives you that lets you know when to pull out. Also, I'd make sure neither one of you has an STD. (I also always make sure I have urinated after my last ejaculation to make sure there is nothing hidden inside of the precum). Then again, I also wish I just didn't take the risk at all as mental peace seems to be a bit scarce for me.

What do you think you are keeping out of your pre-cum? It also contains sperm and can result in a preg.

There is a huge difference. When I started having sex for the first times I used condoms all the time. Then I got to do it with out one. Iy was AMAZING. You can feel everything. I tried all the different condoms durex have to offer & nothing compared to having sex with out a condom.

Just feels a whole lot better. I hate condoms.

If 100 women have regular sex for a year, the number who become pregnant will be:

No protection - 85

Withdrawal - 40

Condoms alone - 10

Spermicide alone - 15

Hormone (pill, etc) - 3

Condoms plus spermicide in the vagina - 3

IUD - 4

This all assumes protection, properly used, every time. The spermicide on the condom should be considered lube. There is not enough to really protect against pregnancy. There should be 150 mg's of spermicide in the vagina and the normal dose (applicator, sheet, tablet, suppository) of whatever you are using will provide this.

Better without, of course.
But the choice really comes down to, as has been said, sex or no sex because while it feels better without condoms, is it worth dying for?
Remember HIV/AIDS has a long incubation period and no cure.

o yeah, there is a HUGE difference. I DEFINITELY prefer sex without a condom. The heat, the moisture... you can just feel and experience her more fully

The std point revolves around partners, who's tested when, and if you're sure you're clean

If you're 100% that's not an issue, there are other means of preventing pregnancy

there is no comparison, in my opinion

Okay the latest stats:

70% of herpes sufferers contracted it from their partners when their partners showed no signs of an outbreak.

1 in 4 HIV positive persons will pass on the virus - because they don't know they have it.

There's no cure for either.

2 words. Disease and pregnancy.:eek:

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaa HAHAHAHA...that's freeking hilarious rack'em up

condom ...takes away intimacy but condoma have their place.

no condoms.....very nice to have a man that close.....always the best way for sex...but............
