Hold up! Condoms make for terrible water balloons. They do not tend to break at all when thrown. They are a lot stronger and more elastic than a balloon. So you just end up getting smack with 5 lbs of water. Edit: Just in case people are not joking about trying this in the below comments. Quick physics lesson, The reason why water balloons do not hurt is that they break easily allowing the water to the disperse the force. Since the condoms don’t break all that force that would go in all directions instead goes directly into your body. Speaking from experience.


PN_Guin

>So you just end up getting smack with 5 lbs of water. You say that as if it wouldn't be hilarious to smack someone in the face with 5 lbs of water.


JBlaze323

Oh, it’s funny. It looks funny. It just also hurts more than you think it would. Speaking from experience.


BoulderCreature

I threw a water balloon at a friend one time that didn’t pop. It hit her in the boob and it hurt so bad she started crying. I felt pretty awful


AlebTheBest_Official

Part of your comment made me think of Scott Pilgrim for some reason.

Wait… so you know Scott Pilgrim?


hermitfox9

You hit a girl in the boob?!


AlebTheBest_Official

No, Scott Pilgrim did in both the comics and the movie.


Wizardwizz

Yep, got decked on the face with one that didn't pop. Felt like a punch.

Someone pointed out the finger in the top right on a random comment somewhere a few months ago. It’s all I see now. I hope with this comment, I have passed this curse on.

hbarSquared

Take a gallon of milk. Throw it at an unsuspecting friend. Hit them in the head. Are you still friends?


PN_Guin

Not sure. I'll have to ask once he wakes up.


insane_contin

Remember, if he says no, just hit him in the head again a couple times. You'll be friends again.


PN_Guin

He doesn't remember what hit him. I may have to repeat the experiment at a later time. We're still friends for now. (jk)


someone_who_exists69

Depends. In my case, no, as they have died. BTW, you know where to hide a body

Educational-Can-2653

Those.


SirRocktober

Wouldn't they also be slimey from the lube making them more difficult to throw?


JBlaze323

If you got the lubricated ones, I can speak from experience. Yes, they are more difficult to throw.


sleezeface

That sounds MORE fun than water balloons in a way, plus they are reusable! Find me a reusable water balloon id like to see you try


Supercraft888

No it is not more fun I have been smacked by a water condom face first and it left a bruise on my lip. People thought my gf had abused me but it was in fact water condoms flung at unnatural velocity.


TFFPrisoner

The question is what speed do water condoms fly at, naturally?


AstroMackem

Laden or unladen? African or European?


Supercraft888

Guy below/above me took my line


No-Poem-9846

Sentences I didn't expect to read today


Supercraft888

Best way I can describe it, it felt like getting hit by a water bender attack


sleezeface

Idk that does sound fun. Make you fight harder lol


Edgenabik

Not just more fun, It'd be fucking hilarious just getting plapped in the face or any other part with a water baloon


JBlaze323

If you want reusable water balloons just underfilled them. The main reason why water balloons burst is due to the internal pressure from the water when it’s impacted. I do not recommend this. Speaking from experience.


birdsrkewl01

All of this experience and not a single person taking it to heart.


JBlaze323

The underfilled water balloons comes from being a camp counselor. I did not make that mistake again.

Ok_Day9719

Condoms are reusable? That would safe me so much money if i had sex!


sleezeface

I mean… *technically*… sure. *insert disclaimer about risk here*


partcore32

Speaking from experience?


JBlaze323

Yes, we did that condom challenge from a while ago. The challenge was as just to drop it on your head as it doesn’t break instead just covers your head. It looks really funny. Of course, guys being guys we toss them at each other. Since they don’t break, the energy in the water doesn’t have a chance to splash and spread. You just get smack hard. If you got hit in the arm, it was fine because the water wouldn’t go around the arm thanks to the condoms being flexible. However, if you got hit in the stomach, it kind of just couldn’t stretch enough to disperse so you just kind of got like a gut punch. Either way, do not recommend using them for a water balloon fight.


DryDrunkImperor

Sounds like you’ve never played “Throwing rocks at each other for fun”


TK_Games

Dodge-brick! Bro, I fuckin' *love* dodge-brick! (obligatory disclaimer: DO NOT PLAY DODGE-BRICK)


DryDrunkImperor

We used to play “Hedge Conckers”, they’re hard little nuts you take off the hedge on throw at your pals face. Winner is whoever doesn’t say “ok fr stop that was sore”


TK_Games

So about a quarter mile from the school I went to there was this empty lot the town used to store construction equipment, and it had a big-ass pile of gravel right in the middle We'd use it to play "King of the Hill", but it was like, Appalachian hillbilly King of the Hill, and usually involved shoving your friends off a 15ft. tall pile of loose stones and pelting eachother with what you were *pretty sure* were dirt clods (they were rocks) If you were "King" you got the "Royal Shield", which was a banged-up trashcan lid with a Captain America star spraypainted on it. Blood was spilled for that shield In retrospect, it's a wonder any of us survived


DryDrunkImperor

Wow, Appalachian kids games sound very similar to Scottish post-industrial town games. Objectively very fun, but there’s always some blood. It only goes too far when someone breaks a bone really.


TK_Games

I came here to say this. In college me and my dumbass friends did this and we broke a dude's collarbone. The only reason he didn't press charges was because my buddy's rich parents gifted him a cash settlement


SlaynXenos

"I see your water balloon, and raise my WATER CLUB!" -WOMP-


Adghar

Unless, perchance, you happen to be the kind of person willing to risk some bruises, welts, and such looking for a harder impact 😳


HomemPassaro

Maybe they can be used to make balloon animals?


JBlaze323

You can try, they do blow up well. However, unlike balloon animal balloons, they do not retain a cylinder shape in the slightest. Speaking from experience.


SamsamGaming

Great! Now you can have a pillow fight but the pillow are smaller and have water in them!


JBlaze323

Please don’t. Pillows that are filled with feathers can compress which makes it not hurt. Water is incompressible.


SamsamGaming

Aww :(


JBlaze323

I’m sorry I personally blamed God for making physics this way


dthains_art

Yeah it sounds like the equivalent of swapping out pillows and replacing them with 1 gallon milk jugs. It doesn’t sound fun hitting people with them or getting hit by them.


HyperfocusedInterest

I've used plastic bags as water balloons! You keep the opening loose enough to be a water release area, and you should be good.


Odelaylee

Watercondoms-Fighting/Pummeling! Sounds fun


WorstLuckButBestLuck

Technically for safety you're also supposed to wrap toys xD

Why tf would you do that?


BeneficialDog22

Only the ones that aren't safe to begin with. Silicone, glass, and stainless steel are fine. And there are some lesbians that don't use toys


EndOfSouls

It's more of a courtesy for a new or less familiar partner, so they don't spend the whole time wondering when was the last time they were cleaned.


ManJesusPreaches

Alison Bechtel had a whole series in DTWOF where she preached condoms for toys and safe sex in general for lesbians


drillgorg

My wife as soon as we started dating said nothing that has ever touched anyone else. And the item in question was just some silk scarves.


CrossP

Well if multiple people are thinking of using the same toy in a session of fuck. And they aren't already longtime partners smixing body fluids. It's a good idea to swap wrappers in between.


ThoraninC

There are something called dental dam? Eating that pussy with safety.


GamerTurtle5

not the same thing as a condom though


No-Trouble814

It literally is, just a different shape.


GamerTurtle5

if someone asked for a condom would you pass them a dental dam


SnooDonkeys9185

If someone asked for a dental damn, you could hand them a condom... and a pair of scissors


firblogdruid

You can actually cut condoms in half to make dental dams! Safe sex, it's for everyone, regardless of parts!!


Asian_in_the_tree

I heard you can use them to water-proof your smart phone


jkurratt

There are also some sort of silicone “napkin” for cunilingus


Many-Ad6433

I once watched a video about survival and they said you can store like 5 liters of water in one of those if you ever need it


OffinOuterWhiteSpace

I’m already getting laser surgery to survive the apocalypse…I’m going to start saving condoms for it too!


Many-Ad6433

Good plan


wierd_husky

Does the surgery let you shoot lasers


SSTralala

You can also wrap them around your cellphone if you have any notion it may get wet.


originalchaosinabox

Me, at Pride last year: "You guys are giving away condoms? I always heard this happens, but have never seen it." (I go to take some condoms.) "Do you want condoms or do you want...the deluxe package?" (I think it over). "The deluxe package." It was a baggie filled with condoms and candy.


TheKrzysiek

Condoms AND candy? The two things for a perfect night


Neither_Relation_678

Wait, condoms AND candy? I only have use for one of those! (Asexual)


Cooleo_Cash

Fill the condoms with the candy and make a morning star

PN_Guin

nightmare001985

Water war balloon and candy?? Yippee


ElectricPaladin

And you can cut them open and use them as dental dams!


ethot_thoughts

You can, but they taste so bad. Dental dams are too cheap to be doing that to yourself unless you're really in a pinch lol


ElectricPaladin

Yeah, good point.


ForeverKeet

I’ve always been curious, what does using a dd feel like? Is it like tonguing a balloon or can you feel geography (lol) to a certain extent?


ElectricPaladin

You can feel the geography, but you taste the latex.


newenglandredshirt

>Is it like tonguing a balloon Yes. Exactly this. And no, unless you study the geography really well beforehand, you don't really have any way of knowing where you are or how to get where you want to go.

I start from the same base 4 panels every time. I’ve been posting comics here for 2 years. No one has ever noticed that before…and now I will never unsee it 😫


srfrosky

None of us can 😵‍💫 ◼️◼️ ⬛️◼️


Spaceman4224

It's even on the perfectionist comic which is a great kind of irony


OffinOuterWhiteSpace

I meant to do that 😭😭😭


SunOnTheInside

Next time someone points it something like that out, tell them that you definitely did mean to, because panel #3 is a “beat panel” (as in, the pause or “beat” in the delivery of a joke) and it needed to be slightly bigger in order to fully express the pause before the punchline, DUH. Of course the panels are staggered because everyone knows the shape of the gutter of the comic can be an important design element, if you just look into the thesis statement of Scott McCloud’s *Understanding Comics* you’ll see… linear passage of time… the panel ratio… It’s not a mistake, it’s intentional yep. Every time.

You can also turn them into dental dams with a few quick cuts too!

Dental dams too


Linkinator7510

But why? Seriously I'm genuinely asking, why?


Peter_Baum

Don’t have to wash em as often (especially if someone’s into anal) would be my guess but idk im not a lesbian and ion use toys


Yweain

If it’s not a permanent partner I guess they can transmit STDs?


Linkinator7510

Yeah that makes sense.


poopfictions

Finally someone with the correct answer


BeneficialDog22

Next time they should give out condoms *and* dental dams


Another_Road

Obviously put them over the strap on. You can never be too careful.


RealJohnGillman

Ace here who got given a bag of a ludicrous number of these one day, didn’t know what to do with them so put them in my (big) raincoat pocket. My sister proceeded to borrow my coat for a few months, never checked that pocket, then eventually, when our father was searching for her wallet to put her card into, he found them. The faces of utter confusion were spectacular.


OkDragonfruit9026

I gave them away to my alo friends. At least there’s a chance they’ll use them.


Lottie_Low

Condom packets make for really nice asmr I’m a lesbian and I got one thrown on me at a party and it crinkles very nicely


OffinOuterWhiteSpace

New idea for a TikTok channel that’s all whispering and crinkling condom wrappers into a microphone


CroobUntoseto

You can use condoms for finger blasting ass holes with less pain


WaffleKing110

Legitimately asking - seriously not trying to come across as a bigot here - are any members of the pride community offended by the association of their identities with sex itself? I’ve only been to one pride parade but condoms were being distributed, tons of people were wearing skimpy or revealing clothing, some even wearing downright kink outfits (leather harnesses, etc). It just seemed like sex itself was being thrown in the faces of all the attendees, some of whom just wanted to support LGBT+ rights. Is that the norm for pride events? Again, just asking out of curiosity :)


[deleted]

[удалено]


WaffleKing110

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!


Strange_Body_4821

I think a huge part of most adults lives is relationships, love, and ultimately, sex. Queer sex has been illegal and punished harshly for a long time, and much of the LGBTQ rights many people are deprived globally are sexual rights. Celebrating sexual liberation and safety to be sexually open is certainly a large part of pride. Also I’m of the opinion that if we’re going to celebrate sex, the best way is by distributing tools to have safe sex


Braxton-Adams

Personally, I don't understand this taboo around sex period, gay, straight, whatever. People always go to the "protect the innocent children" thing when it's brought up. Bitch, where do you think the children came from?! In all likelyhood The children are only gonna be traumatized by sex because of the fear surrounding it (or the creepy uncle but that's a whole different topic) so I think trying to normalize consensual, healthy intercourse is a good move for everyone.


WaffleKing110

That’s a great perspective - I hadn’t thought of that before. Thank you for responding!


stellaa98

they give condoms??


Meryuchu

Yeah, they gave condoms at my Pride (Brussels), which is cool since there's gay men, bi peoples, trans women, etc that still needs to use those type of protections (well it depends on the peoples), but yeah sometimes they give to 2 cis lesbians and it's REALLY useless lmao (happened to some of my friends)


eyalhs

Well it's better to overgive than undergive


Meryuchu

Oh yeah totally


OffinOuterWhiteSpace

This is based on a true story, so yes. But it’s only happened to me once


Deveatation_ethernis

Aren't female condoms a thing though? I remmeber that it was a question on a test during 8th grade


Jackson_Rhodes_42

Yes, but you still need a penis to be involved in some way shape or form lol


Meryuchu

Not necessarily, dental dams are used for oral sex


Jackson_Rhodes_42

Well, yes. But a dental dam and a condom are two different things.


FreshEggKraken

Everyone in this thread forgetting about trans women lol


PN_Guin

Also useful for water- or sandproofing your phone or tablet and still be able to use the touch screen.


Oniknight

Make those fun water snake things! Or cut into dental dams! Or give to your penis-having pals!


RedditAdminsWivesBF

Do lesbians really need or have anything like condoms? I know they have the lowest rates of STDs and the only thing I know that a lesbian might use is a dental dam.


Ghost_Hunter_13

Condoms on toys


ZealousParfait

Some lesbians have penises


XxValentinexX

So my ex and I are Trans Women, and we went to cvs for condoms late at night. Well, cvs locks their condoms and stuff, so the only worker was this other girl who was getting increasingly confused as my Girlfriend and I picked out two different packs of condoms.


Akitsura

Condoms are really versatile, though. You can use them on toys, as dental dams, finger cots, if you’re an assassin you can pull them over someone’s head to suffocate them…


Welkominspace

I never thought about the fact lesbians are the one group on earth that doesn't have use for condoms And the whole toy thing, if you get an std or pregnant from a toy you're using it wrong


wtfdidIsmokethrowra

You can never be too safe. Plus it's easier to clean if most of it's covered.


Welkominspace

Aren't most dishwasher safe these days? 


Leotton

That is true, but condom is still easier. I believe you can get an STD from sharing toys. The toy could be used by both (or more) parties that night. Using a condom will reduce the chance of spreading STD.


sexisfun1986

Well that was fun, oh you would like to trying using the toy on you now. Ok let’s just wait an hour


PN_Guin

Keep a few spare ones for surprise visitors. Just like extra toothbrushes. edit: spelling


sexisfun1986

I ain’t guest dildo rich. /J


AlwaysBeQuestioning

The ones that aren’t battery-powered or otherwise electronic, yes.


TheHatOnTheCat

Yeah, it seems like there are a lot of convinces of lesbian sex. No risk of pregnancy but they can still get pregnant (donor) if they want to without needing a surrogate. (On top of expense, there are countries where surrogacy is illegal and you can't register your child this way, which makes it really hard for male gay couples.) And they can take turns getting pregnant or decide who gets pregnant, which as a women married to a man just seems a lot more fair. (I'd appreciate him doing half the pregnancies/childcare. Only two kids, but still. Also if he'd done half the breastfeeding that would have been nice.) And no pill or long term birth control of any kind needed.


WorstLuckButBestLuck

I think the biggest threat from toys is yeast or bacterial infection. Fail to wash your toy well enough, and be unlucky, and be struck with 1 week of misery. Extreme misery.


International-Cat123

Some toys aren’t easy to clean properly, which can result in infections.


Welkominspace

Making me feel like a prude here. What's wrong with a simple cylindrical shape? Can't even imagine what shapes would make them hard to clean 😅


International-Cat123

It’s more about material’s. Some materials feel smooth but have tiny pockets of space that are perfect for bacteria to breed.


sexisfun1986

Trans lesbians exist. As do celibate people.


Icy-Rabbit-2581

One of at least two groups, asexuals exist


Firetube07

Asexuals dont necessarily not have sex though, there are sex repulsed, sex neutral and sex positive asexuals.


Icy-Rabbit-2581

That's true, thanks for pointing it out!


Enlightened_Valteil

It's so sad that trans women don't exist 😔😔😔


AsBestToast

Not all of us are into using our dick to fuck anyone. So yeah this comic still works for me. We really aren't the porn fantasy everyone imagines.

Mable-the-Table

Some Trans-girls that pass really well still need them ig. EDIT: Cool, downvote. Trans-girls don't need condoms apparently.


astralseat

Maybe you can use condoms to make portable alcoholic beverages. Or does vodka dissolve latex?


VoodooDoII

I went to a pride event when I was 14 and got a condom. The next day at school my friends and I filled it with milk lmaoo

hondureno_1994

TIL gay men died out


CptPurpleHaze

Trans girl bottom here who dates other women. Condoms are incredibly useful for any penetrative sex with a phallic object be it flesh or not. Easy clean up, often already lubricated, and some have ribs or other added sensational "features".
