Well, I think they do compromise the sensitivity levels of my cock and reduce the pleasure noticeably, HOWEVER, if you are in a situation (even with your girlfriend or wife) where you wish to avoid pregnancy or you don't know your own or your partner's disease status (i.e., do you have any or not?), they make a LOT of sense.
As for the pregnancy, I look forward to a contraceptive pill for men.
As for disease protection/prevention, condom probably have a long future.
I don't **** them, but I don't love them, either....
They are simply, sometimes, necessary.
