There was one that I really loved. It was called Nuda. I can't remember who made it, but they don't make it any more. I think you can have fun, especially for oral sex, with the mint flavored. All the different flavored condoms, they're kind of fun, for oral. I don't really have a particular favorite. I don't   like Trojan. That's one thing I don't like. I can't stand Trojan. There are so many condoms on the market, that you can always find a new one. So it's interesting. I just play around, just, you know, try different ones all the time, so I don't have a favorite.

There are two modes of thought. There is the ultra-thins, many of which are made in Japan, which many people like. But they have a tendency to break more often. There's another way of getting sensitivity, which is the wider condom, the Pleasure-plus condom, which I think is just coming back into production again. That has a pouch at the head, so it has extra latex which slides back and forth across the head of the penis. In fact I know one person who says, "I won't put anything else on my dick." Also the Avanti -- the polyurethane condom -- has better heat transmission qualities, so some people like that better. It's also cut a little bit looser, if you like a loose condom -- and some people like that, because again, it slides back and forth.

Um. I don't know. I don't have any specific recommendation. What is sensitive for one person isn't necessarily the best for another.

I don't know.

People tell me that they like the polyurethane condom, because it transmits heat.

I've always had good luck with Sheik. I thought that that was a very good condom.
