Condoms are essential for safe sex, but sometimes they can feel like a barrier to intimacy, both literally and figuratively.

However, with a few tweaks and a change in mindset, they can become part of a pleasurable sexual experience.

Listed below are ways pleasure and protection can intertwine seamlessly while using condoms.

1. Ditch the Stigma
First things first, let’s address the elephant in the room: condoms aren’t the enemy of pleasure. They protect you from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) – both of which can put a serious obstacle in your love life. Think of them as safety equipment that allows you to fully enjoy the moment without worry.

2. Find the Perfect Size
Forget the notion of one-size-fits-all. Ensuring the condom fits snugly, yet comfortably, is paramount to pleasure. With a wide range of sizes available, you can find the perfect match, allowing for unrestricted movement and heightened sensation, without compromising safety of course.

3. Use A Lubricant
Friction is the enemy of pleasure, and condoms can introduce some. Here’s where lubricant comes in. Opt for a water-based lube that’s safe for condom use. Apply a generous amount to both the inside and outside of the condom for a smoother, more comfortable experience.

4. Explore Different Textures and Thicknesses
Not all condoms are created equal. Explore different textures (like dotted or ribbed) and thicknesses to find one that feels good for you and your partner. Remember, thinner condoms won’t necessarily sacrifice protection, but they can feel more natural.

5. Explore Sex Toys

Take pleasure to new heights with sex toys and accessories. Vibrating rings, stimulating gels, and other enhancements add an extra layer of excitement to intimate moments, ensuring increased amount of pleasure for both partners.

6. Make Foreplay Fun
Condom use doesn’t have to interrupt the flow of intimacy. Use foreplay to build excitement and incorporate putting on the condom as part of the experience. Explore each other’s bodies with your hands and mouths before putting on the condom.

7. Try Different Alternatives
Beyond the traditional latex, a world of materials awaits exploration. Polyurethane and polyisoprene condoms provide alternatives for those with latex sensitivities, without sacrificing durability or sensation. By embracing different materials, you can tailor your experience to suit what you like.

8. Communication is Key
Talk to your partner about your preferences. Let them know if the condom feels uncomfortable or if you’d like them to add more lube. Open communication ensures a more enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

9. Think Beyond Penetration
Condoms aren’t just for intercourse. Explore other forms of sexual intimacy where condoms can enhance pleasure. Oral sex and hand jobs can be just as satisfying, and condoms provide an extra layer of protection for the two of you.

10. Focus on the Bigger Picture
The most important aspect of a pleasurable sexual experience is feeling relaxed, connected, and comfortable with your partner. When you prioritize safety and communication, condoms become a tool that allows you to fully enjoy intimacy without anxieties.
