Lifestyles assorted 3 pack - male condom by Ansell - review by SomewhatSomewhere

I’m all for anything that's flavored. Really, I am. But when the flavor “banana” comes into play, I sort of shy back. Strawberry? Yummy. Tropical fruit? Delicious. Mint? Go for it. But banana…

Eh, not so much.

However, that's what I got with the Lifestyles assorted 3 pack. Granted, there are other flavors besides, banana, but it is this particular one that has me bothered. To me, bananas aren't a very sexual fruit like, say, strawberries or raspberries are, so I really do not want to taste a lubrication that's imitating it, but that's just what I got.

As for the condom itself, I have nothing against it. It's very typical without any ridges or studs or any other special designs, so it is quite ordinary. However, it does the job. The different colors are a plus; I adore colored condoms. I think it spices things up.

But on to the lubrication. To me, it left a greasy feeling, which one is exactly a fan of. The condom's amount of lubrication, however, was fine, if not just a little bit too much. So far I've been discussing the banana lubrication, but, obviously it is not the only one (remember: the packs are assorted). Let us jump to strawberry. This one, unlike banana, I love. It tastes just like candy! It's rather nice if you're giving oral and don't want to worry about the disgusting taste of latex (I can't think of anyone who likes that taste). In all honesty, it's rather tasty. Because of this, it would be great for anyone who's new to trying oral with a condom on, as long as they skip the banana (unless they like banana-flavored objects. Then they should go for it).

Overall, these are just like any other condom, except that they are flavored. It would be nice to have some studs or something, but it also does just fine on it's own. The only reason I give it three stars is because of that stupid banana! Take that flavor out, and I give these a four or so.
