I'm turning 19 soon I've never had sex yet, no idea when I'm going too haha...I'm a horn dog just like any other teenager, but I can control myself, I wouldn't like sexually harass someone, NEVER. I would only do stuff if a girl wants 2 do It also. But anyway, I don't know when I'm having sex, wether its with s friend, or a girlfriend. Lol but just to be presafe, how often do condoms break? I heard stories from kids ik about like condoms slipping off and stuff, or stories of condoms breaking, that stuff scares me. I wouldn't mind having sex now, just I'm afraid of the condom failing. My friend said you need to put it on right, but can't it still slip off? Lol
BQ: is this true about the pullout method, I heard if you piss before you do it, the uretha will be cleared of any sperm and their wont be sperm in the precum? Making it safe, is that true???

The pullout method does not work, under any circumstances. There's always pre-***.
I'm a girl but I ONLY trust the Trojan brand condoms, the ones in like a light purple package. They have never failed.
Whatever you do, do not buy/use the condom called "one" they easily break.
My boyfriend always says guys most of the time know when it breaks, just some keep going cause they don't really care. I guess you'd feel it break. Also a few condoms have slipped off when I have had sex, and I've gotta say it's one of the scariest things for me. I have my boyfriend constantly feel to make sure it's on, but it mainly only slips off when in odd positions. Not trying to give too much information haha, but say, on a counter or table. The way a girl is sitting when in that kind of position makes it easy to go deeper than usual, which causes the end of the condom to get caught inside of her and slip off. So if you just feel for the ring of the condom occasionally and make sure it's still there, you'll be fine. :)
How Often Do Condoms Break
i've had like 2 condoms break in 15 years of sex.
BQ: the pullout method is NOT safe. you can't "clear" the urethra by pissing, it's 2 different streams. don't try to do this unless you want babies
When used perfectly, condoms fail about 2% of the time. When you use them incorrectly, they tend to fail (which can include breaking, spilling, etc.) about 15% of the time.
To make sure that you're using a condom correctly, I'd suggest watching a few educational videos on how to put one on, and reading this handy list of tips I put together: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=201107...
BQ: If you are going to use the withdrawal method, it is important to urinate to flush any remaining sperm cells from the urethra prior to sex, yes. But no, that does not make the method fool-proof; it only makes it slightly more effective. When used perfectly, withdrawal is about 96% effective against pregnancy, and when we account for user error, it's about 82% effective: http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Economy/sex-study-pul... . Remember, though- withdrawal does NOT protect you against STD's, and when you rely on withdrawal as your primary method of birth control, you can easily make a mistake and accidentally ejaculate inside . . . a risk you do not take with a condom.
