I actually don't mind them...they don't really bother me anymore...I never used to like them cause it felt a little artificial when the man was wearing one but I have always known that it's pretty essential as far as I'm concerned.
Obviously I don't use them with my Partner but he's the only one that I dont use them with...I use them with everyone else.
I know that, for men, they can have problems cause of the whole drooping thing or lack of romance...but without can cause so many problems...but of course everyone has their own opinion about that.
These days you can get them in many sizes, colours, flavours :P etc etc, so there is some thing for all out there.
And they are a must for swinging as far as I am concerned.
(ps I don't like the chocolate ones!)
As a receiver I hate them, I actually get thrush like symptoms a few days after because I have a 'slight' intolerance to them, however they are a must in our play so I tolerate that.
Jay hates them because it does make him lose the feeling slightly but again it's a must so he just gets on with it.
I don't think the younger kids are as sensible as us "older/maturer" people as STD's are on the increase again.
