The point of this thread was very clearly expressed by the OP.

To wit: “advice on ways to have the safest sex possible **given the circumstances**.” (emphasis added)

And “Is there any brand or kind of latex condom that is safer to use?”

If you don’t have something responsive to the actual General Question expressed here, get back to Great Debates.

Thank you.
