Our Bodies Ourselves; FC (w-o-w) condoms

OMG, this sounds awesome... well first off I have personally never experienced the "female condom", and once again I believe that the reason most women don't get to experience one, is due to men wanting to control everything when it comes to sex... but let me get off my soap box. I believe that if men could have it... they would control Birth Control too.. which is actually already happening, sadly. I think that this new condom sounds pretty amazing and I hope that the trials go well for testing for I feel that this could be the turning point for that uncomfortable pressure/loss of sensation for men, and that awkward "to be honest", waiting around to see if "it's " really going to happen, after the male condom is put on. But geez I guess I'm sharing too much. I hope that with the success of the trials for this product, I hope that it will help aid in positive sexual health conversations of partners, allowing them to choose the right and appropriate protection for them and their sexual encounter(s). I also believe, that with more use of this product and that if the demand increases (and in a perfect world, unwanted pregnancy rate going down, and STD/STI rate down) that the cost will go down. I know that these are expensive and at the rate of planned parenthood organizations getting their funding cut, they will be hard to obtain... but I hope for the best :)

  1. I agree. Women who carry condoms are smart! We need to stay in control of our own bodies.

  2. It's horrible to know that men control such personal women issues. But it's fantastic that such new things are coming along for women!
