Yes, it feels a hell of a lot better without one. I've always found that even the really thin condoms reduce the sensation I feel.

I just like it without because it's a hassle to dig for the condom and carefully unwrap it.

I prefer without, but I try to use them as much as possible.

I can't feel a difference, but condoms annoy my sweetheart. We plan to just use the pill when we live together for birth control.

Wouldn't know. Condoms are my main form of birthcontrol.

I use depo as my form of birth control, and my boyfriend and I both are tested and yeah, no condoms please.

New partner, yeah he better put a condom on.

I remember the days of having those darn things break in the middle of sex and ouch they sure did hurt. Ugh...no I don't miss them at all. Perk of having one trusted partner and tubes tied - no condoms.

Sadly, I'm in the category of 'don't know' when it comes to no condoms. I hate the idea of pill BC, it feels too much like messing with the way my body works to be comfortable with taking the pill. So we stick with condoms to be safe. There's plenty of times I wish we didn't need to use them at all, just because he's the only one I'll ever be with and I would love to feel the skin on skin contact, but accidental pregnancy right now would be very, very bad. So you know, what can ya do? I can only imagine I guess.

We use condoms 99% of the time just for the benefit of easy cleanup. I don't overly have much of a preference either way tho.

Let's put it this way, sex with a condom is better than an unwanted pregnancy or an STI!

My Man hates them, and we only use them occasionally. But, we are fluid bonded, and use withdrawal as a birth control method (not recommended unless you are fluid bonded and your man has really good orgasm control EVERY time.) If pregnancy or STIs were an issue, we'd use them anyway.

Ug, we had one slip off once during sex, (he's big and it wasn't on properly) and we didn't know until after. He suddenly said, "It felt really good, like I wasn't wearing the condom anymore." He wasn't. He pulled out, and I looked at him and said, "Where the fuck is the rubber?!?!?!?" He had to fish around to find it. It was years before we knew about the Morning After Pill, and although I injected a load of spermicide afterward, it was a very unpleasant wait until my next period.

It's much better without it, but to say I'd never go back? That's a bit of stretch. It's still better than not having sex.

I tink it's a million times better. We use condoms though, and it pleases us both just fine. I kind of like it better that ways. I can orgasm at least twice, while my partner is done after one. With a condom he lasts long enough for me to go twice. It's great!

They're annoying to put on and I understand it impacts the guys sensation but I honestly think I actually prefer the condom to be there. My peace of mind is just so much better and there seems to be less friction for me to deal with.

I'm almost hesitant to vote, seeing just how many people have already told you how much better it feels. I think you have great resolve, having always used a condom, if only our boyfriend and I could remember/were WILLING to remember to use one every time, both our lives would be a lot less stressful every other month ^^;;

(I say every other month because that's about how often our scares are, not how often my cycle starts, haha)

My wife and I used to use condoms almost all of the time for ease of clean up, but after discovering her latex allergies and not using condoms anymore, her UTI's and itchness has stopped completely. We are both loving not using condoms. It does feel so much better. Now just to get another throe for those times when we make a mess.

It feels so much better for the both of us when he's not wearing one, but there are so many reasons why using them can be a very very good thing!

Prefer without, but sometimes mix things up by using textured ones.

Being allergic to latex, I stopped using them fairly young. I've needed to use non-latex ones a few times, and hate them. Maybe I might change my mind if I found some good non-latex ones it would be different, but I would always rather go without!

If you don't have any anxiety about pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections, then it may feel better. My partner says it feels better without one (but not "SO much better"), but it helps him last longer with one on.

Better without, but I have been with my partner for a long time. If it was someone I wasn't in a relationship with and hasn't been tested I would use condoms.

Well, I chose yes it's better without and other because although I prefer no condom, I'm also in a monogomous rel. and unable to conceive.

I must say though, no condom is NEVER worth catching STD'S or unwanted pregnancy.

If I got a new partner I'd go back to using them, but It's really much better feeling without.
