161: Avoid these Common Condom Mistakes
For being such an inexpensive item, condoms pack a powerful punch. They protect its users against many sexually transmitted diseases as well as guarding against pregnancy. In the heat of the moment, however, many couples do not stop during foreplay and pull out the condom instructions from the box to ensure they are using the condoms properly. So, for those condom users who are not currently engaged in sexual activity, here is a brief rundown of some condom no-no’s for you to peruse.
162: Condoms 101 - An Overview (What you May have Missed in School)
Basically stated, a condom is a form of birth control that prevents the passage of semen from reaching the vaginal canal during sexual intercourse. In addition to this, a condom also prevents blood, vaginal secretions and other bodily fluids from passing between sexual partners. Acting a barrier for these fluids allows for a condom to aid in the prevention of pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases and HIV.

Condoms are an inexpensive form of birth control readily available on the market. When used correctly, condoms are 98 percent effective in the prevention of pregnancy.

165: Condoms Usage and Foreskin
Condoms are tricky enough to put on with most couples getting caught up in the “which way does it unroll?” dilemma. Now, add the dilemma of foreskin for good measure and you may be in a whole new realm of frustration. Looking at some condom forums and reading what uncircumcised men are venting about when it comes to slipping on condoms may make circumcised men count their blessings. The most common complaints seem to revolve around the condom “bunching up” and/or slipping off. There was even a complaint about “poking through” that I thought might need an entire essay to devote to.
166: The Female Condom Redesigned
The female condom is one of those things in life that you know exists; you know you’ve heard about it on the news at one time or another, but you don’t know anybody who has ever seen one, let alone actually used one. If you stepped on one in the street, you might kick at it and think, “What a strange Ziploc bag.” Despite a lack of enthusiasm from the United States market, the female condom has had minimal success in developing nations, including South Africa and Brazil. It did not, however, achieve its ultimate goal of women empowerment which would, in turn, help cease the spread of AIDS.
167: Exposing Common Condom Myths
Oh, what a tangled web of myths we weave when we are trying not to conceive! Growing up, my neighborhood friend began having sex relatively early. While drinking our Capri Suns on my front porch, I vividly remember her recounting the frequent sexcapades she engaged in and saying things like, “Oh, we don’t use condoms…he says it won’t feel as good.” I would stare at her slack-jawed and wide-eyed since I was never quite able to wrap my mind around the concept of sex until much, much later when I actually began having it myself. Needless to say, my childhood friend had two children by the time she dropped out of high school in the 11th grade. She was a casualty of the condom myths.

169: Overcomming Diabetes Related Erectile Dysfunction Using Levitra
Yes. It’s an unfortunate fact. Diabetics are way more likely to suffer from E.D. (Erectile Dysfunction) than non diabetics. About 53 percent of men with diabetes suffer from some form of E.D. or another and the problem gets worse as men grow older. In fact, by age 70, only 1 in 20 men with diabetes will have avoided E.D. That means that 95 percent of all diabetic men will suffer or are currently suffering from E.D.n
