Am I just super-skeptical today? Both of those make me want to hit Snopes. But I don't mean to malign the Tep.

Why Steph, look at you, you're a treasure trove of condom info. Seriously.

Heh. Actually, I learned it from a safer sex seminar taught by a gay man. I also learned that STDs are now called STIs.

I can only imagine the chick that stocks up, unknowingly, on Ramses Sensitive just in case she should ever get laid having an embarassing moment when she whips them out for her unprepared suitor.

Ah, but if it's called "Ultra Sensitive," or "Extra Sensitive," then it's probably just a medium. It's only when the *first* word after the brand starts with an "S" that it's small.

So what are you supposed to do if you want a "Sensitive" condom but have a big cock?

Get one of the aforementioned Ultra Sensitive.

Also, you can fit a small condom over your forearm all the way up to the elbow. And ain't nobody's cock THAT big.

But I don't mean to malign the Tep.

Eh, you're really maligning the gay dude who gave the seminar.

I can see this as decent reasons to dislike a person, but an animal???

Okay, now *that* cracks me up because I'm sitting here trying to imagine it. "Ooo, if she were just stupid and lazy, that'd be bad enough, but no, she's so damn skinny too! I hate her!"

I guess it strikes me as funny, funny that she hates pandas so much, and her reasons seem funny to me too. I think it really has to do with the two or so years she lived in China and the fact that the Chinese are over the top in their love of all things panda.

Say, Steph, was that seminar by the guy who did the sex tips for slash writers? He's good.

Hmm. His name is Dan Newman. That's all I know.

Check out the first place winner of a biggest loser competition. I don't think the guy's a loser because of that, but he's sure not a winner. I teared up, but totally not the same way as last time.

I can't think of a good reason to hate a species, but I suspect I haven't been trying hard enough.

So Ultra Sensitive doesn't mean for the extra delicate? I hate code!

Yeah, apparently condoms all have their own hanky codes, and we just weren't priviledged to it.

So Ultra Sensitive doesn't mean for the extra delicate?

Nope. It means the member requires more than the usual amount of stimulation.

Also, the female condom was originally created to be for gay male anal sex, but the manufacturers knew they could never market it that way.

I wonder if this decision was made before or after they discovered that the chief side-effect of this kind of condom is -- squeaking?

I did know about STDs being called STIs, because, if you didn't get infected with it, then it wasn't sexually transmitted. (Thus, genetic syphillis is a disease, while syphillis you went out and caught yourself is an infection. And a nasty one, to boot.)
