Since it is made from polyurethane, it is an alternative for latex-sensitive folks. Polyurethane, unlike latex, conducts heat. It will warm up quickly against human skin and stay warm longer than rubber. It does prevent the transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases and offers another alternative for safer sex. If you try it, we'd love to hear what you think about it.
Male condoms are probably the easiest method of birth control to find.
Although convenient, it is not wise to buy condoms stored in hot laundromat bathroom vending machines or infrequently used rest stops, since heat breaks down latex rubber and spermicides will expire over time. Also, do not store condoms in hot places, including cars left in the sun. The stock in grocery and drug stores turns over fast enough to provide the freshest condoms. Check the expiration date on both the outside package and condom wrapper. Don't rely upon one that has expired.
