A cover for a male's penis during intercourse. It could be made out of thin latex (rubber), polyurethane (soft plastic) or natural membranes (animal parts/skins). They can be bought one at a time or in packages without a doctor's prescription. They are unrolled over an erect penis before it goes into or near a vagina, anus or mouth. When a man ejaculates, the CONDOM acts like a bag and catches the semen. If the penis is inside with a vagina with a CONDOM on, a woman cannot get pregnant... unless the condom is torn or used incorrectly

It is a rubber like thing that a man puts on his thing so he makes his chances of getting a girl pregnant or getting an STD lower.
One thing that many people do not know is Condoms do not always protect against STD's and pregnancy. Some STD's can be caught by skin to skin contact and sometimes condoms have holes in them in which semun can seep out of and get into the girl and cause her to get pregnant and sometimes condoms break. If you plan to have sex I ureg you to use both a condom and Birth Control.

It is a rubber or latex shield that covers the mans penis so as to not let sperm enter you. They are rolled up and the penis is inserted. When sex is complete it should be taken off and flushed and then it looks like a baloon.
Be careful if you are young and thinking about sex. Condoms are great to help prevent pregnancy and STD's but they are not fool proof. They do slip off regularly.

either you are way too young or from another planet. A condom is a rubber made "device" or "balloon" (I dont know how to explain it) shaped like a penis, that guys put over their thing right before having sex, and it doens't only help with pregnancies but also from getting sexually transmitted desease.

A condom is a covering made of latex, and sometimes sheepskin, and is rolled over the penis to help prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. They come individually wrapped in foil, and can be purchased individually or in boxes. You don't need a prescription to purchase them.
Did that answer your question?

If you have to ask what a condom is..Then I hope you don't plan on having sex!!!
Not only does a condom prevent pregnancy, it ALSO prevents Sexually Transmitted Diseases. Condoms are not 100% protection. Although, using a condom is better than not using one at all.
The best way to protect yourself is not have sex. WAIT until your wedding night. There are all sorts of consequences for having unprotected sex and having sex outside of marriage.

its like a sock that the male puts over his penis. it is usually made of rubber, sheepskin, or polyurethane blends (really soft thin plastic). It is disposable and to be used only once.
Female condoms are like a sock that is inserted into a woman's vagina to prevent semen from coming in contact with her body.
