Is It Trashy for a Woman to Have Condoms?
El Toro Grande? I'm not familiar with this brand.
Will.I.Am did an interview with "Elle" magazine recently, and he said he'd never date a woman who had condoms in her house, because it's "tacky." Which brings us to our next reader question:
What's up guys. I've been on a few dates with a girl I'm really into, and last night, I went over to her apartment for the first time. I'm embarrassed to say it, but I looked through her medicine cabinet when I used her bathroom. And right there on one of the shelves was a stack of Trojan condoms. I couldn't believe they were right there, for anyone to see. Does that mean this girl is good-to-go at all times, with any guy? Or is it normal for women to have condoms in their bathroom? --Daniel, 32
Jessie says: There is NOTHING wrong with a woman who has condoms in her bathroom, or anywhere. Come on guys, enough with the double-standards, it's 2011. I'm sure Will.I.Am has boxes of condoms hidden in his dresser drawer, and that's totally fine with him. But he's not okay with a woman who might do the same? Nonsense.
(As a side note, a couple months ago Will.I.Am was in front of me in line at a grocery store in L.A. He was with his special lady, and they decided to buy produce... at midnight. I wish I could say they bought condoms, but they didn't. Still, random.)
Maybe I'm naive, and women who are confident sexually will always be viewed as sluts by guys. I'm 28 years old, and even when I was in a serious, monogamous relationship with a guy for three years, I made sure to have condoms in my medicine cabinet, even if I didn't use them. Does that make me "good-to-go?"
Daniel, you're 32, so I'm a little surprised. I would expect this question from someone younger than you. You're mature enough to know that single adults have sex. You should be jumping up and down with excitement that this woman is PROTECTING herself when she does it. Keep in mind, too, that you breached her trust by snooping through her private things. A medicine cabinet is very personal. Don't write the woman off for being safe.
Kyle says: Unfortunately, Daniel left out the best part of the story: what happened after you snooped through her cabinet and saw the condoms dude! Did you use one? How can you leave us hanging like that! Sorry, but we're all thinking it. Plus, it might shed a little light on your question. Because now I'm secretly wondering if you're sexually frustrated by that first uneventful night at her apartment, and pissed off that she didn't want to use one of her slutty condoms with you. I digress.
I'm glad she's cool and confident and doesn't care who sees where she keeps the condom stash. And since sometimes I get accused of not answering the question here at Jessie/Kyle: No, it doesn't mean she's good-to-go with any guy at any time. And no, it's probably NOT normal for women to keep condoms in their medicine cabinet. They probably have them stashed in a drawer like most guys.
Weigh in, faithful readers! Where's the weirdest place you've ever heard of hiding a condom supply? Or do you not hide them at all?
