Condom tricks?

[evolution]

Looking at condoms from a different perspective, besides buy one, put it on, toss it in a can.

As a young man I heard on the street 'put a drop of lube inside the condom to transmit better sensations'.
Well that just made the condoms slip off - so don't do that.

Recently I've been hearing about condoms transferring heat & I was wondering about warming a condom before putting it on. I just haven't thought of it in the moment. Has anyone tried that? Put an unopened condom into a bowl of warm water for a moment or tuck it into a heat pack just to get it slightly warm? Really not sure it would do anything beyond having it in a tight pants pocket, but....?

Any condom do's / don'ts, maybe not obvious for the new & future users who will read this down the line?

Any women / bottoms have points you wish to make about condoms use?

(...and hey, it's in other thread but - Condoms come in sizes! One size does NOT fit all. - but that's not this thread - sizes.)​

I also heard that it was a good idea to put a little lube inside the condom. I've found that lube inside seems to cause condom breakage more for me. I don't think that you need to worry about warming it up. A condom is pretty thin and I think the the combination of a hard cock and warm hole will bring things up to temperature pretty quickly.

From what I understand, putting some lube in the condom is specifically for unlubricated condoms only. If you've ever used one then you know that lube is needed.

I don't think putting a condom in warm water would change any feeling. It's so thin and its going to pushed between two hot pieces of flesh. If its not hot by the time it goes in, it will be almost immediately.

I don't have any condom tricks. I know its not supposed to be a problem, but I feel like condoms aren't really made for guys who still have their foreskins. If I wear a condom that isn't large enough I find it will slide up and down with my foreskin, so oddly a smaller condom is more likely to slip off. If I wear a magnum XL I don't get that same slipping, and it doesn't feel like my cock is being crushed by the condom.

The only other trick I know of is to hold one open out the window of a car while driving. I've seen videos of them blowing up to comical proportions. Supposedly it proves that there's no such thing as a condom that's too small. I disagree.

Never heard of warming a condom up. Over tried a variety of condoms over there years. Latex free for me. Lambskins are good. Expensive but good. But they only work to keep from getting a woman pregnant, since they are membranes.

All condoms are not the same. Magnum is a good fit for me but still a little tight since I am 6" thick. Lifestyle is very tight.

I've never put lube inside a condom, although I have had several break on me before.

They may go on cold but they'll warm up quickly.

There is no point in warming it up. It quickly warms to your own body heat after you put it on. I've only put a drop of lube inside if the condom wasn't already lubricated. Just a drop is all you need. It just allows the tip to slide across your head. Some people get irritated otherwise. You could alternatively just put a little lube on the head before you put the condom on. Some people are sensitive to the spermicide on some condoms, so a little lube helps dilute it. If it doesn't feel right, pull out and look at it. I had one that felt like it had folded over on itself a little. I didn't pay much attention to it, and when I was finished I discovered the condom had torn to pieces.

I always put a drop of lube inside the tip and works amazing for me.

Other tricks, for anal try to find condoms without spermicide (it irritates anus).

I have foreskin so I retract it before unroll the condom.

Dry condoms (non lubricated) are great for toys but also if you are thick and have issues unrolling the condom
