Condom use is declining among younger generations. Here's why it's become an afterthought.

Raw is law.

I thought Gen Z and Alpha weren't having sex?

I’m well in the minority here, but never had an issue with them. Don’t like them, bye.

Probably it's due to the availability of Prep.

Those cup condoms are an interesting concept.

Straight sex or gay sex… if fucking is on the menu, Raw is just going to feel a magnitude better for the (male) insertive partner. Reasons for using a condom have to be compelling enough to outweigh that. And for many, they no longer do.

R1 they arent, hence the decline.

So, is birth control only an issue for the woman? Don't men also have to be responsible about birth control?

Doxycycline does not prevent genital herpes.

Condoms do for the most part.

Are all these people (straight and gay) also on PReP because they should be if they're having unprotected sex.

Yes. Get the hook!

Fuck that i'm using condoms you dirty heauxs. You probably have undiscovered diseases.

R12 When they put out the condoms now on university campuses, the students point and laugh. Straight guys just persuade the girl to let them buy Plan B the next day. Then they have cup condoms now to protect your vodka and soda against roofies.

It's because of PrEP which makes it almost impossible to contract HIV.

R1, the article says "Fewer young people are having sex, but the teens and young adults who are sexually active aren't using condoms as regularly, if at all."

No, they're not responsible for women's bodies. But they are financially on the hook for at LEAST 18 years for any kid that gets created.

And I'm sure a girl can't go get an abortion in Mississippi

by Anonymousreply 22September 5, 2025 7:25 AM

If the man is 50% responsable for the getting a woman pregnant, does he have 50% right to make her get an abortion? OR force her to keep it?

Thank God I am not straight, seems like a raw deal women expect men to be responsable for something they have no rights to at the same time.

by Anonymousreply 23September 5, 2025 7:33 AM

How old are you, r23? You seem to have a hard time understanding how bodily autonomy and child support payments aren't a contradiction.

I've heard 18 year old virgins on reddit spout the same bullshit.

by Anonymousreply 24September 5, 2025 8:23 AM

They're fiddling themselves and using sex toys while watching pron- why would they buy condoms?

Funny, you’re dismissing me with the same depth of logic as those 18-year-olds on Reddit—you’re just older and louder about it. Spoken like a true Man hater.

Bodily autonomy and financial obligation aren’t contradictions? Great soundbite. Now try explaining how forcing someone into 18 years of payments without choice isn’t a contradiction of its own.

The majority is straight, tard. Condoms are for not knocking up broads.

by Anonymousreply 30September 5, 2025 10:15 PM

R28 and R30 yes but I would guess that on average, gay men enjoy casual sex most frequently of all demographics. if your sample size is three people, one has 0 partners a year, one has 1 and one has a twenty, this directly translates into condom use and the ones who have the most sex have the biggest impact on the study, respectively on how many condoms are sold.

by Anonymousreply 31September 5, 2025 11:28 PM

It’s amazing that after all these years nobody has figured out a way to make condom use feel as good as going raw.

by Anonymousreply 32September 5, 2025 11:34 PM

My trick is add some lube inside of the tip. It adds friction. Not the same as bare, but a little better.

My niece told me that the kids all want anal so no one gets pregnant. Oral and hand jobs are first base these days.

by Anonymousreply 36September 7, 2025 2:17 PM

R36 - The religious kids also "prefer" anal because it means they can believe they are still virgins.

Those who (rightfully) make fun of this logic call it "Saddlebacking" in a nod to the Saddleback Church in Orange County run by that asshole Rick Warren.
