In need of wisdom and advice.
So I have been in the hobby for about 4 years now. Not quite as active now because Florida had better selection than Virginia does (where I am now). I have always practiced safe sex have never done BBFS but have had my share of BBBJ's. Always have done research to find the legit girls. Throughout the years I never have had any issues with STI or STD. But I guess it was bound to happen. Looks like I might have contracted HPV, and from my research I have HPV 6 or 11. The warts I have pretty much look like skin tags. No pain, not spreading. And HPV not to be confused with HSV, totally different things. At least that's my understanding from research. I've read that the body can get rid of the warts in it's own over a period of 3 months. I guess I'm looking for advice on what course of action I need to take to find a remedy. And no I have not visited a physician just yet. Here's the plot twist. I have a SO and I am AD Military. If anyone on here is AD Mil, Will the physician I visit require me to disclose this info to my SO if I visit clinic on base? And what is the treatment for HPV?? Again. HPV 6 or 11 not the other types. And what are some alternative cost free clinics I can visit?? I have done research and I can only think of the planned Parenthood for testing and possible treatment at a reduced cost or free. Thanks fellas. Much help needed and very appreciated.
What Kind of Condom Matters: Thickness, Size & Material
[QUOTE=Freedom2B;3500490]
The problem is, it feels SOOOO good to a man. If you only knew. Sex BB is like sex, Sex with a cover is not like sex, but an effort or more like work to try to feel good and try to be pleased with it and THAT is part of why BBBJ is a great alternative for guys. Quite safer for both and an extremely great feeling if done right, vs. A layer of latex and the issues that causes.[/QUOTE]
I have found that the THICKNESS of a condom, the material it is constructed of and the size make a HUGE difference in the way covered sex feels! Oh sure, I use to be unknowledgeable about this and would just grab whatever condom was cheapest or whatever the girl provided. And yeah, as OP pointed out it was often an unpleasant experience playing with the wrong condom.
But who ever heard of [B]thicknesses of condoms[/B]? Can't say I had ever heard it discussed much. Then one day I found a website that sold condoms and had tons of educational material. I discovered that the standard condom was 0. 070 mm thick. OK cool, whatever that means. But then I discovered that there were "thin" condoms that are 0. 055 MM thick and 0. 045 mm thick! I bought a bunch of these and YES! They made a difference!
In fact, recently had an experience with a FWB. I visited her twice in a week. First time I used the "thin" ones (0. 045 mm) and had an OK date. The second time, I brought a thin one (0. 045 mm) and a Magnum (0. 080 mm). Tossed the covers on the night stand and when it came time she suited me up. It was a terrible date as the sensation wasn't there and I didn't pop. As I left and picked up the unused condom I noted that it was the Magnum that had been used. So it was that extra thickness that lead to the lack of feeling for me. (she had a great time).
You can see the thicknesses of standard condoms here:

Look at the ribbed condoms. Some are as thick as 0. 121 mm! WOW. Pleasure for her, a HUGE buffer for the dude!
But the story doesn't end there! A friend from overseas pointed out that I was living in the past and the world has evolved! The standard "thinnest" condoms out there are now 0. 020 mm thick! That is half the thickness of the "standard" Thin condoms and WAY thinner than the average, 0. 070 mm. So look for the 002 condoms as they are marketed. I think the original ones are SAGAMI ORIGINALs. These are Japanese manufactured condoms that you have to buy overseas or off of ebay as I have never seen them in USA stores nor at most USA online condom retailers. Oh and technology marches on, there are now condoms that are 0. 018 mm thick. But can anyone feel the difference between 0. 020 and 0. 18 mm? The cost of the 0. 018 mm ones are like 3 times as expensive.
Now all of that said, YMMV. Had a buddy who used "whatever" condoms and one day I gave him a bunch of the 0. 055 mm thin ones to use with a FB on a trip. He reported he couldn't tell the difference. But for me I sure CAN tell the difference! The thinner the condom the better!
Also a consideration is [B]the material that condoms are made of.[/B] Oh sure for years there have been lamb skin condoms as it was felt that they had better heat transfer. But the standard condom is constructed with latex. Not so good for those with allergies or those who want heat transfer. So the new "world's thinnest" condoms are made of polyurethane which transfers heat much better. So material does matter.
The final comment is about [B]the size of a condom.[/B] If one does research they will see that condoms vary in length and diameter. How this matters is if one gets a condom that fits too tight it can deaden the sensations. So remember, if one is average or larger, then the original size of a Japanese condom might be a bit snug. (apparently the average Japanese dude is smaller) They do make a larger version of the Sagami's however.
