On: The Best Birth Control In The World Is For Men

[MartinCron]

That's a horrifying thought. I'm planning on doing "the talk" with my children starting with a latex condom and working outwards.

"Sex is a beautiful thing shared between two people and a latex condom from a reliable brand"...

Having the talk is great, but don't forget that some people have latex allergy and latex condoms can be uncomfortable. Of course, there are a great many materials for condoms, so all is not lost.

Aren't they all required by law to be reliable?

[MartinCron → eru]

I have no idea what the current regulatory climate for condom manufacturing is.

I just know that I'm going to trust an established brand that's sold by the box in the drug store over a no-name brand sold singly from a vending machine in the bathroom of a bowling alley.

Don't knock the bowling alley machine. Condoms are like cameras. The best one is the one you have with you and actually use. :)

It is probably better than nothing.
