Q: counterfeit and/or defective condoms

Just busted 3 in a row on 3 consecutive nights. I'm not bragging. That never used to happen back in the states. Supposedly, they were name brands; Durex, Lifestyles & Trojan. I even bought them all from different stores. You would think a country with a one-child policy would put tighter restrictions on this kind of thing. What's your experience?

Don't by Chinese condoms. If you buy the name brands you are at risk of them being fake. If at all possible, shop in bulk when you are out of China or order from the web. I think in the past there was a thread where someone had found a good source for party balloons from Thailand.

I am sorry if I have offended the 5000 year old tradition of making faulty contraception, but as long as less tha 5000 people reads this, I will not go to prison.

I used to buy mine from big name supermarkets.

Always durex and always the same style.

I never had a problem. However, the wife is preggers now so I don't need them at the mo'.

I've never worn condoms in my life due to... size issues. Might explain why I've knocked up several women, have no money, and am stuck paying massive amounts of child support. Still dunno why I'm disease free. Oh, you wanted advice? I'm irresponsible and I wish I could help you... OH WAIT! Import them.

size is a very bad excuse^^

  I use dustbin bags and gaffer tape. Cheap, easy to use, and snug as a bug in a rug.

It's just difficult to get garbage bags that are large enough
