Marc, 19, condom

It’s usually assumed that we’re going to need condoms.

Can guys really feel a difference between thin and regular condoms? Marc says yes. (And he also says thinner condoms offer a more intense sensation and regular condoms can help a guy last longer.)

We love his ultra-simple, super smart advice on condoms: Have them. After all, you never know when you’ll need them—and sex is often unplanned—so do what Marc does: Put one on and have fun.
