Hi Guys:

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and have no medical training. I merely have an idea regarding the prevention of STD’s. I would like your opinion about it.

At many places on the web, they warn you that condoms are not effective at preventing some STD’s. Specifically, they are weak at preventing the viral STD’s like herpes and the Human papillomavirus (HPV) which can cause genital warts and cervical cancer. Fortunate, condoms do a good job at preventing the BIG viral STD i.e. HIV and AIDS.

You can see a warning message on the boxes of some condoms. It says something like, “Condoms are not effective at preventing some STD’s”. Which made me wonder, “why the hell aren’t they?” I mean, with all the technology we have today, why can’t the manufacturers build a better condom to prevent the above listed problems? This got me to thinking of how I myself might improve the condom.

I have never had a condom slip off my unit completely. However, I have found that it almost always slide down my dick about an inch or so during sex. I bet the same thing happens to you. It makes sense for them to slide as nearly all condoms are lubricated and they are getting constant rubbing during intercourse. That momentarily exposed inch or so is the one that gets you infected with herpes or HPV while you’re shagging away in Tijuana or Rio.

To reduce the risk of transmission, here’s something I have been doing: I apply a strip of one-inch wide waterproof adhesive tape around the base of my dick. Approximately five inches of this tape is enough for me to go around my dick one time with maybe a slight overlap. This tape is made by Johnson and Johnson, but I find the generic brands made by Rite Aid and CVS are equally good. Do NOT use the beige “paper” tape that is also sold on the medical aisle for this as it is too strong and hurts you when you remove it later. This white tape I like is the one used by nurses to hold gauze bandages onto your skin. The tape places a one-inch wide band around my dick. The edge of the tape creates a ridge near the base. I then roll the condom over and past the tape to the very base of dick. The beading at the end of the condom therefore falls into the ridge I created with the tape. Presto, that condom is not slipping at all, not even a millimeter. I think the chances of transmitting the viral STD’s are diminished.

I am not putting the glue of the tape inside the girl. The condom goes completely over the tape, so no glue is exposed to the girl’s vagina.

This procedure does nothing to prevent your getting the STD’s on other places of your body such as your thighs or scrotum. You are still taking your chances in those areas.

The most common complaint about condoms is that they ruin the spontaneity of sex. Adding the taping procedure slows the progress toward intercourse even more. However, when I was out mongering, I was usually taking Viagra anyway. So a couple extra moments of preparation did not bother me.

I never had a GDP complain or laugh about this procedure. They usually understand what I am doing even if we had a language barrier. They are just as concerned about STD prevention as we are. Strangely, most never said a word about it.

What’s your opinion on this idea?

Bu the time i had stuck tape to my dick, i would have lost interest in sex, you say condoms dont prevent all STD`s, i have barbacked a few time`s and found you can check her yourself with forplay as an excuse, like kissing around her private area, and the girls are checked by doctor`s once a month,I must admit i have had a condom come off.

Sounds like a good way to tear the condom.

The adhesive in the tape may damage the condom. Sounds pretty extreme to me...you will have better luck using condoms that fit.

Try a couple of rubber bands .

There is logic to your madness. However, I concur, you're better off using a snugger fitting condom. Also there may be minute friction from the condom rubbing on the tape which could risk tearing it.

At least you're being extra cautious though vs. others that enjoy barebacking.

Where is Duct tape Billy when we need him?

Gcl
Now you're talking !

Wrap ur unit in duct tape and it will not come off for sure. Plus it's well known that nothing can penetrate duct tape.

Will also leave a cast of your erect member so you can pound away until your jaded whore cums at least twice.

She will be hunting for you all over town -- likely offering a freebie next encounter !!

Gents,

I've always hoped someone would manufacture a thin latex "donut" for the base to limit some of those pesky bugs ladies transfer when riding and grinding. Has anyone come across these?

Roll a cock ring down over the condom after you put it on if you are that worried about slippage. I'd try something like that before I started wrapping my dick in medical tape.

How about this! Take a dental dam, cut a small hole in the middle of it. Thread your dick through it so it covers your balls and area above you dick. Then put on a tight fitting pair of underwear that have a horizontal fly (fly in center) to hold the dam in place. Put on a long condom, they do make em, and thread your dick through the fly opening. Are you dizzy yet? Then pound away. Laugh all you want. This is my estimation of safe sex. The whole process takes less then 30 seconds once you get used to it. If everything stays in place there is no exposure, or at least 99.9 percent less exposure than condoms alone. To me the reduced anxiety is worth the trouble. Better than sweating it out after a trip.

Try using just a few drops of superglue around the ring of the condom near the base of the penis, that should pretty well do it! Plan a long session afterwards.....

This discussion is starting to remind me of the scene in the first Naked Gun movie (I think), where Leslie Neilsen and Priscilla Presely decide to have "safe sex", and in the next scene it shows them groping each other, completely covered in latex bags from head to toe.

You are sooooooo correct!

Somehow the vision of a wetsuit comes to mind. Now what could be safer than 1/2" of neoprene between you and the possible source of infection? And you don't even have to change outfits to go scuba diving later.

Awe come on guys. Don't you think a little extra precaution is worth the trouble. Remember this is a dangerous sport. What about the what ifs afterward?

Real mongers only wrap up (one rubber per time) for anal (generally) and vaginal (usually). Anything else you take your chances. If you're afraid of bugs stay behind the safety of your monitor and keyboard.

If I reach the point where I feel some need to cover up for a blow job, I'll hang up my mongering cleats, stay home, and save big bucks by jerking off (and I'll wash my hands before and after ).

I realize this is not the fun happy topic we usually discuss here. My feeling is: if you want the extra protection offered here, then go for it; if you don't, then you don't. My tape suggestion might be most applicable to our brethren who are married. You don't want to wife to ask, "honey, what are those spots on yer dick"? When I was mongering, I did it most often in TJ where the girls are amazingly high mileage. I remember once the chica could tell I was concerned about the exposure beyond the condom back before I did the taping thing. On her own initiative and without a word, she grabbed a length of toilet paper and tried wrapping the base of my wang with that.

This is what I now use: http://www.amazon.com/3M-08881-Rubberized-Undercoat-16Oz/dp/B0002NUO5Q/ref=sr_1_2/102-6930654-9268139?ie=UTF8&s=automotive&qid=1179893429&sr=8-2

Apply it once and you're good to go. Once a complete layer is applied to the area you only need to reapply to the very tip after you go to the bathroom or dump load. A crude, but effective method...

Epi: Good suggestion until you read the fine print. Yeah, the stuff only costs $4.79, but the shipping is a friggin' additional $6.72. At that price, I'd rather go barebacking.

you must be joking!?

Now there is liquid Band-Aid. I wonder if that helps


I once found a condom that covered the balls. It ripped while I was putting it on, but the idea is great.

the tape you guys use glues on both sides?? That would be an equivalent to the old mentor condom, my all time favorite (it has a sort of scotch tape inside, would NEVER slide off)

I think a tape that glues on both sides would be very helpful.

I tried cock rings too, but they are elastic and cut into my veins. There are steel cock rings (any source for them??) that would need to be measured in exact size, this might work well.

Now imagine poor Brazilians, they have to go with totally bland standard thick Trojans. A real torture.

I now go for Kimono condoms, small and tight.

By the way, I wonder why there is not more size variation in condoms. A tiny Japanese condom is less tight on us average guys then a Magnum XL on a huge horse dick.
I think Kimonos are 50 mm diameter, Magnum XL aren't even 60 mm in diameter.

I wear Magnum XL's but really I can fit into any condom.

But a condom that is too tight starts to make the friction inside the condom next to impossible. I switched to Magnums and it is much better.

That being said, the reality is that the Magnums really are only a little bit bigger.

But imagine when I walk into the store and buy Magnums. A big ego boost.

As far as slippage goes, an elastic cock ring is best. Even if it traps the blood, it keeps you harder anyway and it stimulates the girls clit. So everyone wins.

Hmmmm

I wear Magnum XXXL's and they're still too tight .

Just the genetic cross I have to bear.

I wear Magnum XXXXXL's and they are still too tight. They also are a motherfucker to puncture, but with a little persistence I usually can somehow make holes in them that line up with my nostrils, making it possible to breath.

Anything to keep from going blind from exposing my eyeballs to clamydia. Then again, I wonder whether the stuff Epi suggested would work as an alternative if sprayed on the face.

Approximatly three more responses like these and it will be time to find a new sport! (yikes)

I occasionally wear a condom but don't pay to much attention to what they are or their quality. As long as it's not a used one I'm cool with it.

I buy the Glad 30 gallon trash bags with drawstrings. They're pretty snug, but if I put a quart of 10w-40w inside it, I get enough friction to make it pleasurable.

I've given up on spray undercoating as it seems to cause a different kind of burning sensation...

After a trip to NoCal I stumbled on an "older" technology. I now hollow out a redwood tree, insert my penis and use that as my new condom. Yeah you gotta trim off some of the branches (or it's just too unweildy) but chicks dig the bark - it's for HER pleasure.

Brings a whole new meaning to sportin' wood

E

BrazilSpecialist: Very nice. Do you actually spray the undercoating on or do you just apply it with a cement trowel?

The rest: hey, my cock is so big, it refuses to take Donald Trump's phone calls

Calif Thaied
looks like you've gone full circle!................

well to be honest i dont know what size i am guys..so i just give the chika a good spank and ask her to be good n put the glove on for me cause.as soon as i start getting a boner.....all the blood from my body goes down to zimba...and well i pass out from the blood loss.....

kinda like the hulk...he gets all swoled up and dosent remember a fuckin thing....afterwards...u knnow.

lmao

I recommend you slip a PVC pipe over your dick and glue it to your body with plumber's silicone. You should put a sealed cap on the end of the pipe, thereby preventing access to all bugs.

If you still feel a little fearful, you could heat the pipe to about 200 degrees before intercourse, thereby insuring that the heat destroys all viruses and bacteria.

On the serious side:

Once upon a time you could download a size chart to measure your dick and order the perfect condom from about 80 different sizes.

http://secure.condomania.com/prodinfo.asp?number=AH-ORINGS
You can also order O-RINGS to keep your condoms on, but it is a lot cheaper to buy a variety of sizes at Home Depot.

I really miss those MENTOR condoms that had some kind of gentle adhesive inside. They stayed on well after the deed was done. Guess the market would not bear the extra cost.
