Do they answer to ANYONE?

Seriously, I just read (oh, but I can’t remember where! Damn. I do remember thinking it was a reliable source) that the chances of getting HIV from having unprotected sex once with an HIV+ partner, were like only 1 in 100. So WITH a properly-used condom you would think it would be nearly impossible.


Sucks to your assmar.

Satan, wouldn’t it be possible to wear a skin condom underneath/inside a latex condom, one for comfort/contraception, the other for maximum protection? Of course, if you’re in a monogamous relationship, the protection hardly matters

Oh yeah Dif…two layers of condoms…now there is a pleasurable experience!

Satan, my bro& sis-in-law have to use the sheepy ones too…she is DEATHLY allergic to latex…BUT I have been told that the sheep ones dont have any stretch to them…how can that be comfortable? You would have to be EXACTLY the same size as the condom. Give us more info. Dont they fall off & stuff?

Curiously yours,

Y’know…there just HAS to be a condom history website somewhere…if there is a history of the tampon museum…there has to be a condom one too!
(going to search for site now…)

Well Kelli, I can’t give you specifics, but I’m in agreement with the dark lord, I’ve used both and the lambskin are much superior in terms of pleasure, not just for me, but my girlfriend at the time agreed.

As far as the OP goes I believe unca cece did it awhile back, but can add a couple of thoughts. First, latex gloves are the same material as condoms, but not the process or thickness etc. They are also designed to protect the pt not the surgeon, in high risk situations people often double glove, and change them during procedures.

As far as Jack chick goes, he knows, or the lawyers he works with know that nothing in your post is strickly inaccurate just the conclusions are grossly distorted, the doctor only says he “believes” millions will die, and they know that suing will only bring publicity, plus they have nothing to lose as they’re target audience is people who disregard evidence that doesn’t support the conclusions they want,

If anyone still believes it, they’re on their own. I personally don’t think you should wear helmets or seatbelts either, because, you know, they aren’t 100% safe.

(the one I messed up. just like using condoms though, it was human failure, not the technology)

kellibelli:

Q) What did the salesclerk in the condom store ask his customer?

A) “Would you like to see something in a condom?”

Now then, to answer your question, you are correct in your assumption about the elasticity of latex being greater than that of lambskin. But I think that is a reason that I loathe latex so - I feel like I am squeezed into a balloon. Maybe I could try Magnums, but just buying those reeks of arrogence!

But the main thing is that a lambskin is an actual membrane, i.e. real skin. The feeling is thus more of a natural skin-on-skin feel than even the thinnest latex can provide. In addition, lambskins are far more receptive to staying moist, whereas after a short time - say 20 minutes - of friction, a latex condom dries out. A lambskin remains wet and does a better job of “soaking up” the moisture the woman produces.

Any more details on the subject and I fear C#3 will get on my case for flirting, but suffice it to say the thought of two condoms makes me want to cry.

I’m sorry to interject this, but I must. My ex-husband was completely thrilled because one day while shopping with a friend, I stopped and picked up some condoms- the extra big ones. Now, he wasn’t exactly huge, but smaller ones were too tight and…caused…well, problems. Anyway, he was just strutting around like a peacock for weeks after that…

RE: OP, Jack Chick is a complete idiot- his comics scare me- even the drawings are bizarre. Lets hope most people know he’s nuts and disregard his garbage…

“The world ends when I die. And as far as I’m concerned, the rest of the universe might as well call it a day too.” – Matt Groening

My pal Satan – I’m reminded of an old Dennis Miller bit where he boldly stated that he wore two condoms at all times, until it was time to have sex, that is, when he would rip one off and feel free as a bird!

I think it’s hilarious that a discussion about Chick publications has evolved into a discussion about condoms.

Getting back to the OP, for what it’s worth, Chick also attacks Christian beliefs.

At least, that’s the perspective of this website: http://net2.netacc.net/~mafg/jtchick/jtc02.html

      • A few months back a customer was coming into the store where I work and laying tracts all over the place. Now and then these were from a nearby church, but most of the time they were ‘generic’ tracts not particular to anywhere. One (very smart but rather odd) co-worker got the idea of using his computer and graphics setup to, uh, change the message somewhat, while leaving the familiar pictures (and the originating addresses!) untouched. That fellow got a technical degree and moved on to bigger and better things, but I have considered continuing the cause - I already have 3 different tracts and I can currently change text in a snap - but no more tracts have been left in quite some time. We guess that whoever was leaving them found one of the “counterfeit” tracts. - MC

GregAtlanta, Yes.I knew my former husband had AIDS.Yes,no one should ever try this. I don’t know where my mind was;we wanted a child. Yes,we beat the odds. I don’t know exactly what the odds were.?


“Do I Look like an idiot?”-Ronald Reagan.

Greg, actually with the current anti-HIV drugs available today, this is not as unthinkable as it sounds. Many patients with long-standing infections have no detectable viral particles in their blood, and are unlikely to transmit their infction. For many reasons (unknown effects of drugs on sperm quantitiy & quality, potential to spread the virus to an uninfected partner and the baby, and the very real possibility that the HIV-infected will not always be there), this should be attempted with close medical follow-up. But in the 20-40 year old population who carry much of the HIV burden in this country, once the acute threat to survival seems under control, the urge to procreate and be “normal” is very strong.

Not all doctors agree with this and this is not appropriate for all couples; if you are considering this, talk to your doctor…

Not to be a pinkydink, but the website said that Jack Chick attacks Catholicism.

It’s par for course for many extremist Christian (Protestant, Baptist, etc.) groups to attack Catholics.
