Durex is Made in Thailand lah...[/quote]So now we know the reason why the \"accidents\" happened
When we first started, we were on durex but I loathed it cos it felt like we had the great wall between us :stupid:ZacK:
[quote=\"tanlengleng\"]
Hubby says okamoto seems to be smaller & tighter then durex,
any man can advise on this?
He says it's uncomfortable for him...
Hmmm ... I guess my size is more aligned to the jap sizing then and whereas your hubby is more aligned to ang mo size :!: :lol:
... But I think they still follow US specs lar.

Aiya nothing to be shy about lar... Anyway size does not matter as long as functionally it serves it's purposeHeyya Zack,
The japanese vs ang-moh was hilarious lah you!!
And yes i do agree with you, whichever works best.
There isn't one size fit all.
...condoms are costly in the long run.
Yes I do agree that using condoms is a running cost ... But then again, we're no longer like \"jack rabbits\" jumping at it at every opportune time :oops: ... -
Hey, I rem reading this on a Durex box many years ago "99.99% protection against pregnancy"ā¦
Now reading the box we have a home,
"No method of contreception can provide 100% protection against pregnancy ā¦ ā¦ ā¦"
Politically correct? Or covering "backside"? -
sashimi:
This has always been my peeve :x ... Always need to buy something else and then put the condom box at the bottom of the pile hidden from public sight. It's worse when it's the young girls at the counter and then they are trying to contain their giggle.Oh one other advantage of the IUS is that you only have to face the cashier once, whereas condoms... wahlao, how many times do you get a male cashier at watsons?
Wonder if condom vending machines would catch on here ... At least have the vending machine at a pte corner of a complex so that wont be so obvious

I think they changed their position after receiving complaints on product failures :rant: ... At least it's an attempt on our part to reduce the possibility of conceiving... But if it does happen, we will still accept lar.Hey, I rem reading this on a Durex box many years ago \"99.99% protection against pregnancy\"...

On the contrary, my husband likes to put the box at the top of the pile of items to be purchased, in direct view of the public. He especially likes to do so when we purchase kid's diapers and/or milk powder. It's a way of saying...\"hey, we are legitimately doing our part in practicing birth control!\"

tanlengleng:
Probably a LEGAL issue! I'm sure elsewhere on Earth, there have been couples who have attempted to sue condom manufacturers for \"product failure\", so these manuacturers will never put 100% on their marketing.Hey, I rem reading this on a Durex box many years ago \"99.99% protection against pregnancy\"...

Heyya sashimi,
Yeaah... tell me abt it. Though the caps are hubs decision,
he ain't the one buyin it off the scrutiny of the cashier. Male
cashier is one thing... but SAME male cashier EVERYTIME u
buy? How lucky can one get?
And its fine if we all pay together with kids in tow..
For lady cashiers, if i pay for it alone they'll gimme
the look. And i thought we're past the millenium.
Scenario 1
While queueing up at 7-11 with newspapers, mags and tit-bits, full crowd.
Almost reaching the counter, he grabs a box without anyone noticing..
Hubs : (Throws box in my pile of to pay stuff) Eh, we're out, right?
Me : Wah lao, pretending.. Ya lah, out. Clever ah you, always get me
to face the cashier. Why not you get it?
Hubs : You're in the queue anyway right, kill 2 birds with one stone lah.
Never mind what. I'll pay for everything lah. (Taking out money..)
Me : Ya lah, ya lah. Dump it in..
Hubs : I was thinking of some nice action tonight, so stock up lah,
in case reali no more in the cabinet. But if you dun waaaannn, its ok
i put back.
(My turn at cashier now. Hubs dumped two more boxes at the last minute
(small pack) into the pile cos the usual big pack, out of stock.
Cashier : Is this yours, sir? ( Thinking he's paying first )
Hubs : Errrmm... hmm? Nope, all hers. (Pointing his thumb at me and left
the store)
