Husband embarrassed to buy condoms
So why is it that when it comes to buying condoms, I still find myself going bright red at the counter? Why am I suddenly struck with an all-consuming embarrassment at the prospect of handing over contraception to someone on the tills at Boots? I chatted to a few friends of a similar age by which I mean between the ages of 23 and 37, just in case condom-shame is something you really do grow out of in your mid-thirties , and found that even the most sexually liberated among them felt a little embarrassment when picking up contraception. Loads of them felt it was embarrassing because by buying condoms, they felt they were declaring their sexual escapades to the world.

Why are we still so embarrassed of buying contraception?
In class the other day, my professor was telling us to not be afraid to ask questions. He said he won't pretend to know the answer when he really doesn't, and that there was only one question he didn't have the answer to. He said that a student once asked him if condom sales had gone up since the installation of self-check-out machines. Then we briefly talked about how it's embarrassing to buy condoms and that got me thinking, why is it so embarrassing to have safe sex?





Over 60 years ago, I overcame my hesitations before a first time date and entered the pharmacy to buy some. In those days you had to go to the pharmacist as they weren't sold on the shelf. The pharmacist sold them to me without any problems and I looked forward to that night.
