"Men's Health" is All About Getting Dudes Laid, Safely

Posted by Emily Farris

Maybe this is news to no one but us, but we never bothered to look at Men's Health because we have a vagina. We thought it was all about teaching men to exercise, eat their greens, and check out another guy's dick in the shower without looking gay. But, no, it's like Maxim up in there.

There must be some coded language on the cover that keeps women from opening it in the doctor's office or maybe it's an ancient secret passed down from fathers to sons, but Men's Health is chock full of articles about "Sex & Relationships," including February's "Seduction", "Decode Her" and "The 10 Best Things to Tell a Naked Woman." But once you "get past the grind," Men's Health just wants you to be safe. For example, their "Test Your Condom I.Q." quiz. We scored "not bad but not great either" and only because we think condoms expire earlier than they really do and because we thought dudes were lazy, not stupid (see question number 7). And you can't blame us for being careful and forgiving, now can you? Luckily, we answered this question correctly:

5. The best way to put on a condom is?
_Place it on the head of the penis and unroll it all the way to the base
_Remove it from the package, unroll it and pull it over the penis
_Remove it from package, inflate it and pull over the penis like a sock
_Without even removing it from the packaging

We know, you’re busy. You’ve got a to-do list more extensive than Bret Michaels’ bandana collection.

I don't read this magazine, but condom expiration dates vary depending on the kind of lubricant on it.  Some expire earlier than others.  As for question 5, it may depend on what you mean by "best"....
