spermicides. I would (personally) say they are a poor choice.
Independently, they are, but bear in mind that spermicides are
absolutely necessary to the functioning of some forms of birth
control - even a well fitted diaphragm is pretty much useless
without spermicidal jelly.
DIAPHRAGM
---------
(from: 
e...@halcyon.com
)
Has a failure rate of 2% (i.e. out of 100 women who primarily use
the diaphragm, two become pregnant). Always use spermicide; both
partners _must_ learn how to place it properly. It has few
associated risks; it cannot become 'lost' because the vagina is
only a few inches long. Can 'slip' and press against the rectum;
this can be uncomfortable. Also, some men can feel the diaphragm
during intercourse. Some women have recurrent yeast infections
when using the diaphragm.
The average diaphragm costs about 20-30 dollars, but it must
first be sized and fitted by a gynecologist, so there is the cost
of a doctor's fee. Must be replaced every two years to ensure
correct fit and product lifespan. A tube of Gynol II costs around
11 dollars and is good for 24 doses of spermicide.
The major disadvantage to the diaphragm is that it must be used
one of two ways; either it is inserted before any sort of sexual
play, in which case the taste of spermicide can become an issue
if the couple wishes to engage in oral sex, or is inserted after
oral sex but before intercourse, which can be considered a major
interruption of play and may lead to not using it all.

Health Book Collective, 1984. Pgs 225-228.)
A personal observation: Omaha and I rely on the diaphragm as our
primary birth control. As mentioned, she does have recurrent
yeast infection, but we both agree this is a minimal compared to
the intense, suicidal depression that came when she mixed birth
control pills and her epilepsy medication.
We are both fond of oral sex, so we use the diaphragm in the
latter way described in paragraph three. We have never failed to
used it; insertion of the diaphragm has become a major part of
our play, a way of saying "I love you, I care about you, I _will_
be responsible with your body" during lovemaking.
The diaphragm, it _must_ be remembered, is _not_ an effective
method of STD control; only a condom can do that. The diaphragm
is a reproduction control method for primary partners only!

c8-2.     What kinds of condoms are there?
(from: Steven Sharp, 
ses...@happy.colorado.edu
)
This is a posting of information about types of condoms which are
significantly larger or smaller than average. I got it out of a
book called "The Condom Book" or something similarly imaginative.
One thing that was apparent from reading through the descriptions
was that advertising on size (or for that matter thickness or
ribbing or whatever) is often misleading. A brand which is
claimed to be smaller than average frequently isn't outside the
normal variation. There may also be differences in size based on
variations in manufacturing and these figures were probably based
on single samples. Different size measurements for different
styles of the same brand may indicate such variations or be an
attempt to provide some size variation, in which case getting the
precise style named is important. All measurements are flat and
don't take into account elasticity, which might influence comfort
when worn. Typical condom flat widths range from 2" to 2-1/8"
(meaning two and one eighth, not two minus an eight). All the
condoms listed here are both lubricated and reservoir ended.
Company names are listed in parentheses. Extra words which may
appear in the name on some packages are listed in square
brackets. It is possible I've copied some numbers wrong (and
other disclaimer noises).
