try chewing the "candy" with a wrapper on, and pop rocks in your mouth....sucking actually...

It was hailed as the biggest contraceptive revolution since the invention of the Pill. "Johnny's had a sex change," went the publicity strapline, and in the eight months preceding its 1992 launch it had generated 94 articles in the national press and 56 TV and radio features. There was a £1m advertising campaign, which included a two-week neon-lit display on the famous Spectacolor board at Piccadilly Circus, and people queued outside Boots to buy it. In just 10 weeks, 70,000 had been sold to NHS clinics. But 13 years on, UK usage is so low that it registers as 0% according the National Office of Statistics' report on Contraception and Sexual Behaviour. How did we fall so quickly out of love with the Femidom?

The answer may be that Britain never really loved it in the first place. The female condom may have seemed a good idea to most modern, emancipated women in 1992 (when the world was was riding the second wave of Aids terror, with heterosexuals the new victims). But once they saw it up close - and tried using one - they weren't so keen. The Femidom (the British brand name for the invention) is a baggy, seven-inch prelubricated polyurethane tube designed to line the vagina. It looks like a cross between a pair of diaphragms and a male condom that might have been used as a water bomb. It can't have helped that the Danish inventor, Dr Lasse Hessel, originally intended it to be used as an incontinence sheath.

(hahaha some of that is very funny)

Oh, come now, Trish. Improper sex can be pretty hot, too, no?

"Fun with a windsock" is how 30-year-old marketing executive Louise Sandler recalls her first and only Femidom experience, in 1993, at university. "They were being given out in the student union. My boyfriend was up for it because it meant he wouldn't have to wear a condom. But once was enough; first off, I couldn't get it in. The instructions said, 'Squeeze inner ring together and slide to cover cervix.' I mean, what sort of woman has the capacity to slide her entire hand inside herself - and in front of her boyfriend?"

All those damn horny UK women!!

Yeeeash!

Dr. Lasse shoud have used it first to test it....this is of course if he was gay.

any sex right now would get by the censors - oh but its such a so and so, all this waiting

Anyhooo... enuff Femidoms for me for one night..

I'm orf to bed

Have fun

I'm off too.

Sleep well.

Never heard of it until just now....lol Don't think I'd ever use it.

Oh, and Ambrose....I prefer without.....but the ex liked to use condoms because he felt he could last longer....actually the only thing that helped him do that was a hollow strap on....lol

sometimes....... I would like to have sex - simple as, just sex with no emotion - pure orgasm and pleasuring each other........ emotionally and physically, with no hang ups on either side


the only time I ever had the beauty of this experience is with the man that I married - we were totally incompatible on all levels except sexually. and every now and again for about 5 yrs we enjoyed the pleasure of each other - i didnt see anything wrong with that - he was my hubby at the end of the day - we split after about 6 months

One of the big pluses about being in a LTR, no condoms!!! I hate them, but you have to be smart and safe.

I don't see my answer,daddy.

Are there not other options?????

Like what? Please let me know!!!

"NOBODY" ever died from lack of getting laid.. We all have our "choices", but mine is to wait for the LTR..

And I am a nympho..........

I think I could be the first! It's been 18 years since I was in a LTR and I accept the possibility that it may never happen again. I love sex , abstinence would never be a choice for me. I think I would be the crankiest, most miserable woman around I had to go the rest of my life without it.

I don't either, Daughter...
