But I'm wondering how many of you really do hate using condoms. I hope you all have a safe sex rule with new guys, but I know lots of people think that it's a major plus of monogamous relationships that you can finally stop using (and paying for!) some latex protection. And it's not just some jerk guys that act all bent out of shape about wrapping it up--I know plenty of ladies that would prefer to do away with the little foil wrapped packages for good. Is it really that big of a deal though? And what, exactly is the problem? As a paranoid safety person, I've just never really given myself room to think about the downside of using a condom--it's too necessary!-- but I can see the potential problems: Ruining the heat of the moment? Physical discomfort or lessened enjoyment? The icky, rubbery smell? The cleanup? Remember that those things pale in comparison to an unwanted pregnancy or a disease, of course, but here's your free space to complain.

Spill: Do you hate using condoms? Why? Or do you not mind them at all? What do you think would improve the situation? Any brainiacs out there have a good proposal for the "Next Generation of Condom"?
