I use these condoms every time I masturbate. I find the experience is much better with a condom. To start I take the condom out of the wrapper and rub a little lubricant on my penis just behind the head, the frenulum for the medically minded. Then I roll the condom on, lie face down on a low bed, start watching hot porn and I begin my masturbation. I'm married, no sex at home, and the wife disapproves. So I can't leave my semen on the bed. Without the condom I'd have to ejaculate into a tissue. That breaks my concentration and interrupts the sensations. With the condom on I don't have to worry about a mess, as the sensations increase I keep masturbating until I have a powerful release. Then I just lie back and enjoy the afterglow, the condom now filled with my semen. I've found that durex extra sensitive has an excellent feel, it doesn't dull the sensations, and the lube feels fantastic. Also, no latex smell. And one last thing. Sometimes when I masturbate I get close to cuming but it doesn't happen. Then I tend to rub so hard that my penis gets sore and actually gets red. With the condom protecting me I can rub as hard as I need to without tell tale signs of redness. Try it, you'll be surprised how good it feels.
