Seriously - im a virgin and i've never purchased condoms in my life....what are the things I should look for? I've walked by them a couple times in the store, but felt stupid staring at them and trying to figure out which ones to get.

Super sensitive? ribbed? which size and how do I measure? Any suggestions on brands or types?

thanks a lot guys! (!)
 
OK first off, please don't feel weird buying condoms. Think about it this way - people don't know you're gay (unless you're wearing a rainbow flag cape or something) when you are looking at condoms so if that's what makes you feel "stupid" then put that past you... People, both gay and straight, have sex, and the fact that you are even buying condoms and are thinking about safe sex should say a lot to others about your character...so thank you for thinking about practicing safe sex.

Onto other thoughts - I think you may just have to test some out to see what you "like." On my recommendations, I would suggest something that is already lubricated and thin. Ribbed is totally up to you. And, if your dick is more than 10 inches, than any condom should work. If not, then just buy some Magnums which are meant for larger penises. In terms of brands, just don't take them out of the bathroom with 50 cents ;) Just stick with what you find in the store. They put them through strenuous tests to make sure they work 99.9% of the time.

Lastly, if you feel weird buying them still, just go to a store that has self-checkout. The Wal-Mart by where I live has this, and no one is the wiser.

Good luck! ..|
 
Any condom will fit any person. Skip the ribbed, and buy both lubricated and non-lubricated to try out. Regardless of brands, they're all made the same (that's just marketing telling you otherwise).

In high school, our teacher made the entire class buy condoms in their free time. The cashier didn't care. Hell, the stock girl that pointed me in the right direction didn't care either.

You can always ask the pharmacist for help deciding.
 
Do buy some and try them out while masturbating. Not only will you grow accustomed to purchasing them, but you'll find ones you prefer, AND you'll get practice putting them on. Practice 'til you can whip one on in the dark without looking. :)

How to buy them? Go to the store, grab a pack, take them to the front, and pay for them. It may make it a bit less nerve-racking if you buy something in addition to the condoms. Nothing too weird - skip the lice shampoo and the diapers, stick with snack foods and whatnot.

just go and get them...

my first time buying them, I was with one of my female friends and the cashier just looked at us and smiled...then he said have a good one you two !oops!

now, I just go in and know exactly which ones I want :D
 
Dude, ¨

You are a guy looking for some fun, so you need condoms. Nothing wrong with it. On the contrary. Absolutely no reason to act any differently than if you were buying a hair shampoo. See, everyone's hair gets dirty and to keep it clean, we all wash it... Ever thought about being embarrassed when buying some toilette paper???

When it comes to the types, and brands, make it a bit of a personal educational quest.

Anal sex goes well with non-ribbed (you do not want to increase any risk of bleeding) well-lubed extra strong condoms.

If you are into oral sex and would like to make sure that no one catches any nasty bugs, possibly the flavored but non-lubricated sort would work best.

Last but not least, most guys will tell you that laid back and self-confident dudes usually win by a wide margin. Keep that in mind and enjoy the ride.

embarassing condom buying story:

I was at walgreens with a friend who was a girl, and condoms were on sale: buy one get one free. We thought we'd take up the offer so we went to go pay and of course, they did not ring up on sale. The cashier starts going through their weekly advert and doesn't see them in there, so he gets on the PA and says "I need a price check on condoms please"....

So if that wasn't embarrassing enough, a girl comes over and asks what kind we had. We said trojan, and she goes down the aisle to see check the sale price. She then yells across the store, "Are they the ribbed ones? Cuz those aren't on sale"...

THEN! this old man behind us says "Hey, are we goin to the same party?" And he had two boxes with him as well. haha

ugh, so frickin embarrassing.

In the end we got them.

on sale.

yesssss.
 
Great story jai se7en!!! I don't think anybody can outdo your story. Thanks for sharing.
 
I love being comfortable with things of this nature. Inside, the first time, I was dying of nerves standing there, but SOON after the first rush I just stayed a long time and really read through them and the differences.


In the end... I choose the variety 24 pack... more than enough, plenty extra to try out before hand and they are cheaper in bulk...

for some reason condoms get me frisky... :D don't know why.
 
am i the only one that was never embarrassed buying condoms? i get more embarrassed when i buy a bacon deluxe with extra bacon from hungry jacks or something.
 
If you're embarrassed.....ORDER THEM OFF OF THE INTERNET!...I can't believe no one has suggested that...Buy them online if you don't want to go to a drug store...That's what I would do...
 
Most (all?) gay bars I've been to have a free condom distribution box; usually paid for by the city's public health program. Go grab a small handful. Don't forget the accompanying (water-based) lube.

The freebie condoms are usually the worst ones. Tests show them to be almost uniformly weaker than any and all brands purchased at the store, most likely because they probably sit around for quite some time before use.
