Condoms may not decrease the perceived pleasure associated with sex, says a new study from researchers at the Indiana University School of Public health in Bloomington. For the study the research team surveyed a collection of couples between the ages of 18 and 59.
They found the majority of couples reported both unprotected sex and sex with a condom was “highly arousing and pleasurable.” According to lead researcher Debby Herbenick:
“This may be because men are more likely than women to purchase condoms and to apply condoms. However, it’s important for more women to become familiar with the condoms they use with their partner so that they can make choices that enhance the safety and pleasure of their sexual experiences.”
