Bare Back

In women, having sex without a condom represents a great leap forward in trust.  It means that you and your partner have reached a point where you know the fellow is clean, you trust him to sleep with only you and you've made precautions to prevent the formation of a baby.  In men, it means that you're letting us do it.

Honestly, we would go bare back from day one if there was no risk involved, but safe sex is something of a rare commodity so it really increases your chances of safety and health to just use a condom.  If it weren't for that, we'd be fine without them.

Use Them

Condoms are a valuable resource.  Without them our society would either be filled with unwanted babies and diseases, or we would live in constant fear and never have any good, sex-style fun.  Thank goodness for prophylactics.
