If you haven’t figured it out already based on the clearly fruit phallic object used in every women’s magazine to slyly portray penises… well… we’re talking about penises. Now, my friends, college is essentially a whole zoo of penises if you so choose, or it might be the place where you find “the one.” Regardless of who or what you’re exploring, it’s always vital to be safe. I know what you’re thinking… you think this is another “Wrap It Up” PSA. I am merely here to shift the stigma of condom use.
If you have negative attitudes towards condoms, you may suffer from something sex experts refer to as a “condom bias.” This bias is the result of not liking the feel of condoms, feeling less pleasure with condom use, not liking the smell or taste or more serious reasons. However, condoms are like snowflakes. They’re all made differently, and some have enhancements or sizes more suitable to your fit. They’re the only contraceptive method that protect against STIs and unfortunately, America is “winning” in terms of historically high STI rates. College kids are a huge factor in these numbers as 15% of college students never use condoms. That’s terrifying! Condoms are easy to get (there are literally bowls sitting out at most public universities), cheap to buy and can even come to your door for free if you live in the state of Ohio.
Don’t give up on condoms and risk increasing the already daunting statistics. If you need a reason to use a condom, or at the very least, want to escape the typical, run-of-the-mill clear rubbers you’ve been using, may I introduce you to the definitive list of cool and weird condoms you can actually buy and use for all your sexy times.
I bet Ron Swanson could get behind these. (Even if you wear these, please don’t refer to sex as “porking.” I beg of you.)2) Glow In The Dark
Essentially, you’re transforming a penis into a lightsaber. *Insert lightsaber sound here*
Not only do you feel next to nothing on your member, but both partners get smooth and hydrated skin.
If you’re a fan of all the drinks, you can get another hit with SKYN’s “Cocktail Club” collection. It features Piña Colada, Cherry Sunrise and Passion Daiquari flavors. If you are aiming for a beverage flavor with lots of gentleman-ly class, you may want to grab these whiskey condoms for a jolly good time.
If you’re addicted to coffee like the majority of America, you can get a rather sexy fix with these textured condoms. Sadly, it’s not flavored with Kenyan Yirgacheffe pour-over dark roast with a blueberry scone you might be used to… but there is chai scented lube if that helps your craving.
These condoms are packaged in a cute and funny wrapper that might fool some people if they don’t read the text close enough. If you’re a big Hubba Bubba fan, consider giving your partner a bubblegum flavored penis.
We are all familiar with the existence of textured condoms with ribs or studs, but this new pattern is one of the most recent advances in condom technology. The hexagon shapes allows partners to transmit body heat in a way that feels natural. Notable publications like Bustle and Vice have heralded this condom as being worth the price.
8) Condoms for the politically involved
You can find condoms with Hillary or Trump’s face on it in several places. You can even find condoms reminding you to vote. Hey, whatever turns you on, right? Just don’t refer to your penis as “YUUUGE” please.
Make your penis a pride flag. Love is love and safe sex is love!
10) Make your own
Time to build your brand by designing your own logo for your condom, and even pick a color! Have fun making something that is not a baby.
