15 Côndom mistakes you are making

Putting on a condom may seem second nature to you by now, but are you actually doing it the right way? Sadly fellas, the latest research suggests you might not be.
Researchers from Indiana University analyzed 50 studies on côndom usage, and after punching the numbers on 16 years of data, they found a laundry list of errors. Could you be making one of them? Check out the top 15 things that couples are doing wrong when gearing up for getting down.

1.Late application
Across the numerous studies, between 17 percent and 51.1 percent of people reported putting a côndom on after intercourse has already begun which doesn't quite cut it when it comes to STD prevention.
2.Early removal
Between 13.6 percent and 44.7 percent of the respondents reported removing the côndom before intercourse was complete. (We'll take 'defeating the point' for 1,000, Alex.)
3.Completely unrolling the côndom prior to application
Between 2.1 percent and 25.3 percent of people admitted to completely unrolling the côndom before sliding it on. How does that even work?
4.No space at the tip
Failing to leave space for semen at the tip of the côndom was reported by 24.3 to 45.7 percent of the respondents.
5.Failure to remove air
When looking back to their last sèxual encounter, 48.1 percent of women and 41.6 percent of men reported that they didn't squeeze the air from the tip before use.
6.Inside-out côndoms
Between 4 percent and 30.4 percent of participants reported they began rolling the côndom on inside out, but then flipped it over and continued its use. And that's bad, since it can expose her to your pre-ejaculatory fluids, which can get her pregnant. (Nope, that wasn't just a lie your gym teacher told you.)
7.Failure to completely unroll the côndom before use
When looking back to their last sèxual encounter, 11.2 percent of women and 8.8 percent of men had begun intercourse before the côndom was unrolled all the way.
8.Exposure to sharp object
Between 2.1 percent and 11.2 percent of people had opened côndom packets with sharp objects. The problem: If it's sharp enough to rip the wrapper, it's sharp enough to rip the côndom.
9.Failure to check for damage
When removing the côndom from the package, 82.7 percent of women and 74.5 percent of men reported that they fail to check for damage before use. What to look for: Make sure the wrapper isn't worn down or ripped open; keep your eyes peeled for expired dates, and check for visible imperfections while unrolling.
10.No lubrication
Between 16 percent and 25.8 percent of people reported using côndoms without lubrication. The trouble? If you're having sèx for an extended period of time, the côndom is more likely to tear without lubrication. (Check out our tips for outstanding lube play.)
11.Lubrication complications
Roughly 3.2 percent of women and 4.7 percent of men reported using an oil-based lube with a latex côndom. That weakens the latex, which can make it prone to breakage.
12.Incorrect withdrawal
Nearly 31 percent of men and 27 percent of women reported that (post-sèx) they failed to promptly and properly withdraw after ejaculation. No matter what the Cranberries sang, guys, this isn't a time to let it linger.
13.Reusing a côndom
Between 1.4 percent and 3.3 percent of people reported reusing a côndom at least twice during a sèxual encounter. Gross.
14.Incorrect storage
Between 3.3 percent and 19.1 percent of people in the studies had stored their côndoms in conditions that did not comply with the recommendations on the package. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or your walletboth can degrade the latex.
15.Not wearing one at all
This wasn't actually part of the study, but we should add that #15 is this: Not using one at all. According to the (most recent) National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior, only 45 percent of men ages 18 to 24 used a côndom with their last sèxual partner. And as the age groups increased, the stats only got worse: Only 29.3 percent of men ages 25 to 34 used côndoms and 21.3 percent of men between ages 35 and 44.
