I keep 2 in my wallet just in case. I've never had occasion to use them so far, and I don't really plan to, but I like having them with me should a random moment occur with the boy, or if we run out.

Well I live with my boyfriend and have been with him for 2 years...so I don't really carry any around just in case with me. But we do have some in the drawer for times when I am ending my BC pills and stuff.

I don't carry any around with me so he better. Call me old fashioned but I think that's the guys job. I would not be offended if a guy whipped out a condom when things started to get steamy because I expect him to be prepared and have one.

Depends on the guy - either he assumes he's getting lucky, or he's just always prepared.

i've been in a couple situations with random guys (not boyfriends) like after the bar or after a date or something where i've asked do you have one, and they always do...and then as soon as they say YES and take it out, i think, uh i guess he was expecting this...and then it kinda makes me think twice about his intentions...but then again i've also been in situations and asked if they've had one and they said NO and then i was mad. so....guys can't win! i guess it's better to be safe than sorry!

but when it comes to my boyfriend, if we need them for some reason (like antibiotics i'm taking is making my pill ineffective for instance), he is the guy who is in charge. i'm in charge of BC, he is in charge of those. like lovely, we have some in the bedside table for times we may need them

it's never a bad idea. most guys I've dated do carry one just in case, but none of them are necessarily promiscuous. plus, if it advances that far, it'd have to be pretty heated to get out the condom. also, wouldn't you be at one or the other's house? people usually keep condoms at the house.

When things are starting to heat up with a new guy I'm dating, I'll usually keep one with me just in case.

I keep one in my wallet just in case. Always.

just in case. better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

I'd say its a definite do! But since I'm not one for one night stands I only bring a condom with me if I'm going to see the guy I'm dating and I pretty much know we'll have sex. But I say its the year 2009 and you're the only one you can trust when it comes to your health and safety. So be smart.

For me, it would depend on the situation. If a guy was a cad about it, like if he made a crass and/or suggestive comment about having them or made some referral like that, then it'd be a HUGE turn-off and definatly a deal breaker. But if he just pulled one out during the deed, then it'd be a turn-on because obviously he respects himself (and me!) enough to be prepared and to be concerned about our safety and health.

Men and women should keep condoms in their wallet/purse just in case sh*t happens. You will never ever know what might happen, my mom has been telling me that for a while

I think it's just smart to be prepared. It's kind of like always keeping change in your purse....

No condom is a deal breaker when I was casually dating if a guy didn't have a condom we DIDN'T have sex. It was just one technique of many for me to remain selective.

Don't want the guy to think of me as a "slut" so if he really wants it. He needs to work for it. (i.e. go run to the hotel lobby shop or drive to the nearest 7-eleven for it) thanks but I can control myself.

Just to add that my comment is based on my own situation, the situation described by many above is extremely unlikely to happen to me. I've not had sex with anyone for over 3 years and counting everyday. Perhaps kinda of depressing for others, sorry to upset you.

Have we learned nothing from the Boy Scouts? Always be prepared. Simple as that, I always have two just in case one breaks.

I wouldn't know what kind to get if i were to keep some on hand! (diff. sizes, types, etc)
I figure, since it's going ON him, he should be the one getting them.
not a set in stone rule, but in general, yeah.

Better be prepared.

I keep two in my purse at all times.

Since so many people are saying they keep them in their wallets.. I'm just wondering if you've ever read the little paper instructions thing? It says never to keep it in your wallet.. they become ineffective.. same with purses or cars or anywhere with extreme heat..

Anyway, I wouldn't bring one out because I would assume if thats going to happen it'll probably be at his house, where he can store them safely.

Hmmm, it depends on the situation. If it's some random guy (which will prob. never happen with me...but just saying) or if it's early on in the relationship and he whips it out and just assumes that's where things are going, I would prob. get pissed. If the random guy didn't have one, I would assume he wasn't assuming something would happen which would be good. But if he then tried to do something without a condom, I would get pissed and never talk to him again...and wash myself very throughly!

If it's a guy I've been with for a while, then yeah he better have one. Being prepared and responsible is good.

I always have some in my apartment, but not in my purse. My feeling is that the host or hostess should supply the, ahem, party favors. So if we wind up at his place he better damn well have condoms. Otherwise I'm leaving and there will be no loving.

SingleGIRL that is a good way to put it! lol...party favours. I don't have one because I am in a committed relationship and I am on BCP and he has some at his place all the time. And we end up over there all the time anyways, I do keep some at mine too. So we are covered on all our basis.

In terms of single, sometimes I did just in case like if I was going on a date with teh guy for I really liked and thought the night might be 'it'. But I don't normally carry it to the bar or anything.. my Chanel wallet doesn't have room for it and look pretty/without obvious condom ring hehe. And my purse is a mess..good luck finding anything in there!

Im joining a convent in 5 yrs so i keep mine in my school bag.

It's good to be prepared. If he's a disrespectful horndog expecting sex, it will show in his personality and behavior in other ways.

Candace, I was wondering the same thing, reading these comments! Being in a wallet causes a condom to deteoriate and develop microscopic tears from extreme heat, cold, bending, friction, pressure, etc. I hope my fellow sugar readers aren't putting ther wallet condoms through any harsh conditions and that they replace condoms regularly. :/

If you're allergic to latex, you hate to carry.

have not hate

I keep one in my wallet even though I'm in a committed relationship and use BC. The condom is pretty old though so I'd be more inclined to use it for a prank instead of in the sack.

My partner usually has one on hand though, just in case I miss a pill or one of his mates picks up and doesn't have one.
