so, if a single guy goes to a club, should he carry a condom? is that being presumptious, or reponsible?

damnit, i wanted to make this a poll. :mad:

It's being responsible. Don't worry.

Yeah, that's being responsible.

Both. Hence, more likely to need one ;)

keep them at your apartment

pockets are a lil too warm for them

the girl is responsible for the condoms.

keep them at your apartment

pockets are a lil too warm for themwhat if she's not worthy of coming back to my place? do girls keep rubbers at their places?

pockets are a lil too warm for them


Is this a fact?


Its best to look at it as being responsible for both of you.
And as far as presumptuous...more like hopeful.

Having one is responsible. Wearing one is presumptuous.

Wearing one is smart. By that time the presumptions are over.

Then re-read my post. :)

Better to have it and not need it than the other way around.

Double

I always bring condoms when I go to a club.

what if she's not worthy of coming back to my place? do girls keep rubbers at their places?

Yaiks... :eek7: But she's worthy enough for you to insert your d*ck inside of her?

WHY WOULD YOU F*CK A WOMAN YOU DON'T EVEN CONSIDER "WORTHY" TO STEP INSIDE YOUR HOUSE?

Just curious.:|

It's awfully presumptuous I think :hmm: I don't think I've ever seen a condom in real life outside of the boxes behind the counter at the drugstore :shrug:

I wonder if I would have the brass to buy a box of condoms from behind the counter. The clerk might think I'm being presumptuous.

I don't think I'd have the brass :hmm:

At least we got the nads either way. :/

Heard of casual sex? :p

I can't answer your question J. I've never even thought about condoms. Granted, I have never gone to a bar and thought hrm... who am I going to randomly poke for the night :D

'rock her world' rofl - dudes are dorks. :p

It is my humble opinion that people should not be allowed to ask for pics unless they have first posted pics of themselves. :cool:

When I was single, I kept condoms in my car at all times, because you never know when you're gonna need one.

Oh and if you're not mature enough to ask a store clerk for condoms, you're not mature enough for sex.

Actually its more a matter of being mature enough to not care what a clerk thinks. Better to be embarrassed than face the consequences of not using a condom. Now thats a mature mind.

Apparently alot of men mature enough are embarrased to buy them.

I'd be scared shitless to buy them, but I'd be even more scared to do it without one. I think that makes sense...

At least there are other means to obtain them.

if you need them that is.

Where do you guys shop that you have to ask a person behind a counter for them? Every drug store I've been in has them right there in an aisle.

There are? Like what, going to planned parenthood? THAT'S less embarassing :rolleyes:

I've seen them at CVS, Drugmart, Rite-Aid, Walgreens, the whole gamut :shrug:

You can get them at school. Even conveniantly dispensed in the washrooms at that.

Behind a counter?

wtf? That's gay.
Seriously, that's just telling kids to go out and do things. I think it's illegal to buy them in this state if you're under 18. That may play a part in why it's behind the counter. If you're under 18 you have to get them via another means ala doctor, Parent or PPH. The most I seen in a washroom is those 25c cologne dispensers...:hmm:
Behind a counter?
Yup, in the pharmacy. Kinda like cigarettes are at the check-out. :hmm: They're on little hooks on the shelf above the nicorette gum.

Why would you be embarrassed to buy a condom? Are you afraid the clerk will look at you and say, "That guy must be having sex!" :eek:

If anything, you should be proud to buy them.

Exaclty. You are thinking LOOK AT ME IM HAVING SEX! and being responsible about it. :D

:yeahthat:

I bought the big Costco box of 40, and when the guy at the check-out stand rung them up, he just glanced up at me and I grinned. :D

Shame

That coupled with the fact that I know I'm not going to use them :p That's probably what it is "I'm buying these, but I know I'm not going to use them"

I'm not even going into the fact that BC is bad and that as a Catholic I shouldn't use it but I will anyway :P

sex should not be shameful?

I'd classify it as a "guilty pleasure"

I don't feel guilty. :)

Well if you ever do I know just the bar. :)

I don't know if I'd travel to Canada to get laid... but hey... just incase... the need ever arises... thanks, I think! :)

*jots down colonel's email address for future reference*

And, if that were the case, I don't think I'd be embarrased to buy condoms! I'd treat it like any other important purchase, do some research online and head to the store with confidence. :p

I'd classify it as a "guilty pleasure"

That's more like... a cheeseburger or watching American Idol... sex is sort of a basic human 'need'.

it's not a need, one can survive w/o it :)

one with needs, needs to survive.
Confirm/deny.



ad editation: I just thought of that rod stewart piece on needs.
Name the song
and you get a lifetime supply, a case load of durex delivered per month! yar.

There are lots of good reasons to visit your friends in the north. :)

Atta girl!

Although in truth there's only one reliable way to research the subject.


Now Matt...on the one hand you admit that buying condoms in a store would mortify you to the point of inaction (lots of people feel that way BTW) but you think it's wrong to make them available to teenagers at HS? Do you honestly believe a 17 yr old is going abstain from sex because they don't have access to rubbers?

Talk to the legistlature about the second part of that statement :) They're the ones who deny access to minors :)
I can only speak for myself. I won't buy any now because I don't need them and figure I won't need them, so I'll spare myself the embarassment. If I ever needed them, I'd overcome the fear and suck it up and buy a package.
It's like lingerie stores and sections in stores. I always walk away from them or avert my eyes to avoid being labeled a pervert :P

To clarify, I was referring to this...

wtf? That's gay.
Seriously, that's just telling kids to go out and do things.

It's not "telling" anyone anything. Kids will have sex one way or the other...pun intended.

You have every right to your own personal views on sex but to hold every young person to your high level of abstinence and self control is silly.

it's not a need, one can survive w/o it :)


Yes, but you can't speak for the rest of the human species. :-) You're out numbered and out gunned, buddy!

As a side note, I find this hard to believe. You're a dude, you probably engage in a little self love every now and then.

Which gets me wondering Are humans first motivated by what feels good? Or is everything we do programmed by some ancient hidden drive, that has been clouded over by judgment and morals.

Knowledge and thought on one side. Desires and emotions on the other.
Hunger and thirst are pretty obvious wants experienced by everyone. We will eat or drink without being hungry or thirsty. The need for water in all of us is more urgent then the need for junk in a crack addict.

Impulse and tendencies can lead to the urgency of needing something, especially meeting a natural need. Leading you to acti n a certain way toward an object. Sometimes involving overpowering bodily turmoil. It the dressing over a biological heritage because the desire for sex is natural but there is as said, no need to have sex. Its a miasma of psychology, social, cultural evolutionary and anthropolical urges and theories. Kind of Darwinian. Just try to tell that to an adolscent trying to get the nerve to buy himself some condoms.

Damn Im deep on a humpday.

It's a catch 22...
Don't do it, but if you do use this.
You're almost giving permission.
Like, don't slice your wrists, but if you do make sure you use a sharp razor.
or
Don't drink the poison, but if you do don't induce vomitting.

Obviously it's needed for procreation of the species, but that's different. And guess what, you don't need condoms for that :p
I do every so often, but I wouldn't die if I didn't. :shrug:

It's not necessary for one's own ability to live. It's necessary for the species to endure, but if everyone stopped farking for 5 years...guess what...the world would keep turning and nobody'd die from it.

I see what your saying here. I think so anyway. Otherwise ot i go. in fact ot is because its another take on human nature.
What about the masochist or sad emo or people who committ suicide?
One actually likes the pain, and the other is escaping it.

A gambling addict sits for hours at a table or slot machine. He might not be liking what he's doing but he's compelled to. The mindset of an addict is a conflicting one.

On an occasion, I get addicted to playing likesay minesweeper. I've felt compelled to play a long string of games with out deriving any pleasure out of it. Feeling pissed off with myself but not wanting to stop. Kind of like how a rat's brain can be altered and that it will drink some shite it clearly hates but can't stop compulisively drinking it.


just what has this got to do with buying condoms...nowt!

And addiction is a bad thing :)

I was wondering that myself, can we please get back on-topic?

Addiction to sex means a constant need for condoms.So not entirely off topic but sorry bout that in any case. I'm telling you my minds has gone rampant on me.

Here's a scenario of mine. Where you want people to like you, you make people like you and ultimately it would not be presumptious but prepared to have your arsenal of rubber on hand.

I swan into a drinking establishment. I get a chorus of "JACK".
I stroll up to the counter and buy rounds commencing a verbose diahrettical philosophical musing. The audience is intrigued, the women are rapt.

Betweein my take on other matters and this its making me spin.
