Safe Sex Tips

- Always make condoms a part of sexual activity. We're animals. We get conditioned. Before long, the sight of a condom will trigger excitement.

- Keep condoms in your purse, bedside and glove compartment, so you can get to them fast. Don't keep them in your wallet, or anywhere they can be damaged.

- If you know you're going to have sex, take the condom out of the package beforehand so it's ready when you are.

- Have your partner put on the condom. It's more fun if someone is touching you, and it keeps the excitement flowing.

- Always squeeze the end of the condom as you're putting it on to leave room for the ejaculate. If not, it could break.

- Put a drop of lube in the tip of the condom for greater sensation. Use only water-based lubricants like KY Jelly, because oil-based products like Vaseline destroy latex.
