Is it awkard when you buy condoms or birth control from stores?

Question

LesterJester · Accepted Answer

Nope. I purposely request a price check so everybody in the store knows what I'm getting.

Seriously though, put yourself in the cashier's shoes. Do you know how many people and how many items they process every day? They don't care what you buy and just scan the items and tell you the total.

Of course certain combinations of items you buy might raise an eyebrow... Like if you rock up with a pack of condoms, a cucumber and a pack of duct tape.

The first time I did it was no problem. Went smooth. I acted like I knew what I was doing even though I didn't. But the second time wasn't so smooth because I started getting all confident and stuff. So I was asking the people at the store what size would be good for me and that didn't go so well. I was trying to be funny but it didn't work.

Nope, granted I tend to get mine from doctors but if in an emergency of the relationship kind we run out well off we buy some or it isn't happening. If people are caring about my adult purchases, I just grin because at least I am happy and exercised 😂

Nope Chris, not awkward. As soon as you wake up you ask questions with condoms, birth control.. how do you dream at night?😄😄

Arivor · Answer

Why? You are just showing yourself to be a responsible individual.

Nope. It's a necessity and makes you a responsible adult. You should be proud.

No. People will know you’re having sex. But that’s how we all got here.

No, but if you do find it awkward you can get them online. Also in UK the vast majority of shops have self-service checkout so there's no human interaction anyway.

summiter · Answer

When I was in high school it was. In college and after it was no big deal. There is nothing wrong with others knowing that you are having sex and even better safe sex!

Soporific-san · Answer

It really depends how you are. If you don't give a fuck what others think. Well, its like bread n butter. If it's a cutie, try your luck.

MikeTheBartender · Answer

Almost 40 and it's still a bit awkward mate! But much less awkward than paying child support and getting a paternity test!

belle_kai · Answer

Birth control is from the doctor and condoms I've never used them as it was a serious relationship

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Only done it once, usually buy online. Was a little hesitation but was on a promise so had to just get on with it. It shouldn't be awkward, it is a health product.
