Are lambskin condoms more natural feeling than latex, polyurethane, or polyisoprene condoms?

Never tried them but I understand they DO NOT protect against STD's.

SexyGirl69,

Being a woman, I can't answer that from experience and I know from other questions similar to yours that when you ask about what feels good, natural, etc. you'll get a variety of answers because what feels good to one, may not feel good to another. It's all personal preference. I did find some info about lambskin condoms that I recommend you check out:

Igor is absolutely correct though in saying that they DO NOT protect against STD's because according to the link above:

Small pores (or holes) in lambskin condoms make them ineffective in protecting against sexually transmitted diseases since the viruses that cause STDs can enter through these pores.

As a guy - I like lambskin condoms for those times when I need a condom for contraceptive purposes *only*. They transmit heat very well and from my perspective feel almost like wearing nothing at all.

Lambskin? Sounds creepy to me! I don't think I would enjoy having sex with someone who is wear and placing part of an animal inside of me. How cruel!

I'm just wondering. Are there any alternatives to lambskin condoms as far as heat transmission goes? I would buy some of these but they are sooo expensive!

[Kace]

Any condom that is non-latex is going to be more expensive than its latex counterpart. For heat transmission, look at the Avanti condoms by Durex. The ones I used were before 2008 and were made of Polyurethane. These have been discontinued but may be old stock at stores with low product turnover. The polyurethane material transmitted heat very well but was a little "crackly" and felt a bit strange - like wax paper. The new Avanti condoms are being made of polyisoprene which has the same heat transmitting characteristic but don't crackle and are more flexible like latex. Polyisoprene condoms will be a little thicker than polyurethane or latex but give them a try anyway. The Avanti and Skyyn condoms are primarily marketed at folks who have latex allergies.
