Condom packets hanging from rope

ms are the go-to for preventing pregnancies and STDs, but let’s be real—putting one on correctly can sometimes be ‘harder’ than the act itself! It might seem simple, but there are a few common mistakes that can totally throw off the mood and, worse, put you at unwanted risk due to condom failure. So, to make sure you're getting it right every time, here are the condom blunders you didn’t know you were making—clearing those up for some satisfying fun. 

1. Using Expired Condoms: Always Check the Expiry Date!

We get it—you’re ready to flip her around and take her from the back, and the last thing you want is to stop the momentum. But expired condoms? Big no-no! Those little guys may look perfectly fine, but when past their expiration date, they’re more likely to break. That means higher risk of pregnancy or STDs. So before you get hard, always double-check the date. Trust us, it’s worth it!

2. Storing Condoms Improperly: No Wallets, No Cars!

Okay, we’ve all been there—reaching for a condom and finding one in your wallet, crumpled up like yesterday’s receipt. But here’s the thing: your wallet, your car, or anywhere with high temperatures and friction is NOT the place to store your precious latex. Heat can weaken condoms, and friction can cause damage that leads to condom failure. Keep them in a cool, dry place—allowing you to enjoy the heat of the moment worry free.  

3. Opening With Teeth or Sharp Objects: Hands Only, Baby!

Tearing open a condom wrapper with your teeth might feel a little sexy, but believe us, most often than not, it can end in disaster. Your teeth (or scissors, for that matter) can easily puncture the condom, leaving you with a little hole or a tear. No one wants that major condom failure! Instead, just use your hands—nice and easy, no harm done. The overall anticipation will only make it more exciting!

4. Not Leaving Room at the Tip: Pinch That Tip!

Here's a simple but crucial tip—always pinch the tip of the condom to leave a little room for semen. This allows the condom to fit properly and reduces the risk of it breaking during ejaculation. Think of it as making room for a little extra fun, ensuring everything stays secure while you enjoy your sexy time.

5. Using Two Condoms at Once: Double-Bagging? Big No-No!

Let’s clear something up: double-bagging is a total myth! Some people think using two condoms will offer double the protection, but it actually increases friction between them, making them more likely to tear, resulting in—you guessed it—condom failure. Stick to one, and you’ll be just fine. One condom = plenty of protection, no need to overdo it!

6. Not Applying Before Any Sexual Contact: Condom First, Fun Later!

Ever jumped straight into the action and then realised—oops!—you forgot the condom? It happens, but it’s definitely a blunder. Always put on the condom before entering any kinda hole. This is the best way to prevent STD transmission and reduce the risk of unintended pregnancy. Plus, trust us, the fun can wait a few seconds.

7. Reusing Condoms: Just Don’t Do It!

Condoms are one-time-only, people! Reusing them is definitely a big NO. You might think it’s okay if you just used it for a few minutes, but reusing can cause tears or leaks—leaving you vulnerable to unwanted surprises. Always reach for a fresh condom when you’re ready to go. After all, who wants to wrap their penises in their very own dried cum?  Not exactly the thrill we’re going for!

8. Using Condoms That Are the Wrong Size: Get the Right Fit!

Size matters, and we’re not just talking about the action itself—let’s talk about condom sizes! A condom that’s too tight can break, while one that’s too loose can slip off. The key is finding the right fit for comfort and protection. A good fit means better pleasure for both of you, and, of course, peace of mind!

9. Taking It Off Too Soon: Keep It On ‘Til the End!

Finally, when the fun’s over, don’t rush the removal. Make sure you remove the condom only after ejaculation and while you’re still hard. Taking it off too soon can lead to unwanted spillage, and honestly—no one wants that! Keep it on for a little longer to make sure everything stays clean.

Condoms are your best friend when it comes to safe and satisfying fun. By avoiding these common mistakes, there’s no excuse for a slip-up or a condom failure! The next time you’re getting ready to get all hot and heavy, make sure you’re doing it right to make it a night to remember.
