Does Putting On A Condom Hurt?

---

My friend asked me that question, and I couldn't possibly know the answer, so I figured I'd ask you guys.Here's her story..... her and her bf are about to have sex, he is erect and tries to put a condom on, but he almost always looses his erection while putting the condom on. She says it doesn't roll down easily, even though they are new condoms, and he's putting them on the right way. She says he really struggles, and after a few minutes he can finally get one on, but he's not fully erect.I was thinking maybe he has some sort of erectile dysfunction, but she said when they have sex without a condom, he is able to sustain his erection. Any ideas as to what is going on?

Wrong size?

she says he's not all that big, but they did try different sizes and brands.

Putting on a condom shouldn't hurt if it's done right and if it's the right size. It's pretty normal for a guy to soften up while putting on a condom. I mean it does interrupt the moment a little bit. One suggestion by a sexologist was for the girl to learn how to put on her partners condom with her mouth. With a little practice, it doesn't take long at all to put a condom on.

what are you talking about? it's THE most painful thing a guy ever has to do in his entire life! horribly painful, i have even seen and heard of people bleeding simply from putting a condom on.

sheesh...*rolls eyes*

stretches condom like a rubberband and hits Last in the eye with it It can be used as a weapon too.

I've never even heard of a condom hurting... I'ts latex covered in lube, it's like wondering if you threw a couple cotton balls at your penis would it hurt? lol... unless you're putting on the smallest size condom on a 10 inch girth penis, there shouldn't be a problem

In reply to: stretches condom like a rubberband and hits Last in the eye with it* It can be used as a weapon too LOL, nice one. i actually laughed outloud. and people in this mall i work at are looking at me funny now.

lol i wasn't responding to you. i knew you were kididng around. i was replying to the original post

oh nevermind, i didn't even read the orignial post lol.. my bad, sorry

Yes well I'm sorry that I don't know what it feels like to put a condom on. Dont you simply hate it when people post questions that they dont already know the answer to? How dare they come to A2A, and ask questions. They should all just post smart ass replies right, nevermind the original posters question, sheesh, if only we could all be as smart as Last. Wouldn't life be so great?Anyway, thanks for the real replies.

i HAVE heard of it hurting, but i think that basically, your friends bf might just be telling her this so that he doesnt have to use one, since its really hard for some guys to get off while using a condom.

From personal experience: I wouldn't really say that using a condom hurts, but it does detract from the enjoyment. Bareback is so much better.That said, it much be tempered with a bigger question. Are you in a commited relationship with a partner who you are positive is free of STD's and with whom you really wouldn't mind creating a pregnancy? If you can't give an unqualified YES to all parts of that question, then the minor discomfort or reduction in feeling is certainly offset by the potential consequences.So, yes, I'm sure that he would rather not use a condom, but everyday I make choices of things I would rather not do but it's the best choice under the circumstances. In most cases, using a condom is too.

putting on a condom hurst as much as putting on a sock. guys like the feel of direct contact so normally prefer not to wear one. 'it hurts' is just one excuse. also have heard 'i can't feel anything', 'it makes me ejaculate too fast', 'it takes me forever to ejacutlate', 'i want to feel you' and others. it's all bogus make him wear it any way. erection can come back by stimulation.

In reply to: giggles what are you? a school girl now? a religious, fundamentalist school girl...tsk tsk, the plot thickens.

Well, no, I'm not a giddy little schoolgirl. I suppose I didn't find it quite worthy of a full roll on the floor laugh, but it was worthy of acknowledging that it was funny...It's not important, really. And its certainly not related to putting on a condom...

ya know, i kind of feel bad for guys having to wear condoms because they can't feel as much, but it's a necessary evil. It doesn't hurt, but it's not the greatest thing either.
