Today’s culture regarding condom use

My wife and I are a senior couple and venturing into the swapping lifestyle. So here’s the question.
How important is condom use today in your age group.Why.
Please list your age group. 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, 50 and up.
Am I wrong, but it appears to me that condoms are not widely used.
I did talk to one couple that track condom use during swaps. That why interesting.

 

At any age, if you don't have long term history with a person and you're going in, wrap it up. Yeah, condoms suck.

 

I don't have a problem wearing a condom as I carry the correct type and size for me. Lube up my cock and slide it on. I really can't feel any difference. But the rest of Gig's statement should be heeded in certain circumstances. I'm in the over 50 group and unless there is long term history between us I am covered. But I have one on one relationships outside my marriage. Seniors are experiencing a rise in STD's the last 20 years or so which is attributed to the ability to be active with medical help. The odds of passing along a disease is relatively low but it is there. So unless you know the history of the interested partners it just makes sense to cover the cock up. I expect being exclusive with the swapping couple and negative testing results will preclude condom use and many are comfortable with not using them. I have too many different partners to throw caution to the wind and fuck them all bare. So unless we are exclusive as in fuck buddies it's condom time.

 

I'm 30 and I do not use condoms. I am however only involved with one couple who I know well. She's on birth control and we've had the discussion about us being exclusive within the three of us.
I would absolutely use condoms if this wasn't the case.

 

I believe if you don't have the level of trust and commitment to go bareback you shouldn't be having sex.

 

To find a exclusive couple would be the ideal situation for my wife and I. We are not looking to bed hop between many, but we understand you got to start somewhere. We have agreed to use condoms until we find the right couple.

 

I agree but their importance cant be under estimated .With any new sexual partners Condoms are necessary .

 

In each phase of our lives, my wife and I have required condoms when she had sex with other men. During her brief sexually active phase, I provided condoms for her to keep in her purse, just in case.

 

I used condoms w guys for almost 40 years, then Scotland gave PrEP & 3 monthly testing to everyone that wanted it and I've hardly used any condoms since...just have them to hand as an option... I'm a sub. Most guys don't want, think everyone prefers bareback.

Since I started on PrEP 20 months ago I must have met around 300+ different guys, and it's so nice not to bother with condoms!

I have had lots of female partners.
I get the ok to go bareback.
Then I ask if they want me to come in them, they always said yes.
If they get pregnant, do the adopt the child out?
