Eh, I dunno. I’d deal with it for a while, at least.
Hit ‘post’ too soon:
Never use oil-based lube with condoms. 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?
And they had to pick Cleveland for this term why?
Because “Buffalo Steamer” evoke mental pictures of a profoundly different sort.
I think someone wanted to give people who might be trying to find restaurant equipment online the screaming horrors.
(A “Cleveland Steamer,” in the real world, is a steam-filled chest used to heat up wieners. Get it?)
Yup, I’ve decided to move on. Shame, too. Lovely girl.
I respect your decisiveness.
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.
educational?! i soo do not need to know what a hot lunch was. 
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?
I’m gagging just reading that description. People don’t really do this for pleasure do they?
vanilla-perhaps the term was coined by someone from Pittsburgh?

So whiterabbit-
How YOU doin??
What? Somebody had to say it!
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.
Why? Because I am female and admitted that I’ve had contact with semen?
