Eh, I dunno. I’d deal with it for a while, at least. ---

It breaks down the latex. I don’t know about lambskins and polyurethane models, however… And, to elaborate: I just don’t see it as a big deal. Quite frankly, her apparent fastidiousness does interest me, but this is opinion of course. I suppose there’s a provision to relax matters in the future? ---

I can understand her being squicked the first time or two she came into contact with the stuff – I was somewhere between fascinated and repelled. But only the FIRST time. After that, not a big deal. Good luck! ---

With all due respect to **Standup Karmic** ’s unfortunate relationship (wouldn’t keeping a few paper napkins handy have worked just as well?), this is one of the funniest threads I’ve read in yonks. Plus, education. “Cleveland Steamer”; man, I’ve led a sheltered life. ---

**Joe K** : The condom isn’t being used for contraceptive or STD prevention purposes in this case, so breakdown of the latex isn’t an issue. Water based lube would evaporate in open-air use such as this, making oil based lubricant a necessity. **Larry Mudd** : 100% cotton socks, all the way. I suppose having a foreskin may make this a more viable option for me, though. ---

Either a foreskin is tougher than I would have guessed, or that “fabric softener” that I’ve heard so much about but never deigned to actually use must really work. Yow. ---

I’m sorry, everybody. It seems that I have turned a thread about mutual masturbation into something dirty. 😃 ---

**Alereon** : I know your situation now. I _was_ unaware at first, though, and assumed the worst. Still, I suppose that it could lead to a _rather_ nasty snap. Who thinks up these names? ---

Okay, my husband wears one for this purpose. There, I said it! Anyway, I’m not really sure how this came about, since it wasn’t always the case. It has been normal procedure for years though. He doesn’t have it on for the whole act, just near and, of course, during the conclusion. I never asked him to do it, but it is much more convenient and I’m glad he does. ---
