A condom ashtray?
Yeah, I was faked out by their headline, too. I was doing research on condom carrying cases and HAD TO CLICK on their “put your butt in my condom” link. Really, I was hoping for so much more. It kinda felt like finally whacking the pinata but good, only to have breath mints fall out.
At any rate, I loved the question I was researching:
Yo, Mike!
I have a condom issue that I thought you might be able to help with. I consider safer sex to be an extremely important thing, and so I simply will not have sex with someone unless a condom is involved. My problem: If I don’t have my own condoms with me, there is often a good chance that the other guy either doesn’t have condoms or doesn’t have ones that are comfortable for me (I’m not huge, but I am thicker than average, and that one ubiquitous brand that seems to be handed out for free everywhere just doesn’t cut it for me). But I also was always told that carrying condoms in your wallet or pants pocket is a good way to make them completely ineffective. So, where exactly CAN a guy carry his condoms so that he’s always prepared like a good Boy Scout?
This question is a perfect example of why I love writing my columns. He could have just emailed me a simple “Where’s the best place to carry a condom?” and be done with it. But instead, he gives me background, color, opinion and context. And really, I find that so much more fascinating than the question itself.
