When you hear the word condom what do you think of? I think of the standard latex male condom, but what about the female condom? Honestly, until I just googled it I didn't even know what one looked like.
In an op-ed piece by Yolanda Young in USA Today: www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/forum/2010-04-23-column23_ST2_N.htm
Ms. Young talks about how women are among the highest at risk for STDs and we women need to take our sexual health into our own hands, especially if our partners are not willing to protect us.
From my experience it seems that many women are willing to take some control of their bodies by taking "the pill" but unfortunately that doesn't protect women from STDs. Using condoms is one of the best ways (whether it is male or female).
In the end I think that whether you use a male of female condom isn't really important as long as you are taking precautions to protect yourself. And you know all of your options.
