I’m Mack, one of the answerers. Something occurred to me after the earlier question about condoms.
This content is machine-translated.
A female college student I was intimate with yesterday is close to getting a boyfriend. She recently went as far as his apartment, but apparently nothing happened, which left her disappointed. While we were talking about it, I asked, “By the way, do you have any condoms?” She replied, “Aren’t those something the man is supposed to prepare?”
“Well, yes, but I think women should carry one too, just in case. Why not put one from here—the love hotel—in your pouch and take it home?”
“Okay, I’ll do that.”
Last night, I had dates with two college girls back-to-back, so I told the second one about it. She laughed and said, “Girls don’t carry condoms. If the guy doesn’t have any, we’ll go to a convenience store together to buy some. If a girl pulls one out of her pouch, wouldn’t the guy feel like she’s too experienced?”
That girl also said this was more of a high-school-couple perspective, and since she hasn’t had a boyfriend since starting college, she really doesn’t know. Maybe once women reach a certain age, they do carry condoms just in case, but she’s never discussed anything like that with her friends, so she can’t say.
So my question is: Once women reach a certain age, do they usually carry a condom with them on dates, just in case? Or, even on a papa-katsu date, do they assume the man should naturally provide one and therefore not bring one themselves?
Personally, if I were a woman, I’d make sure to bring a condom even if I forgot to put on underwear.

I got a little curious and looked into it. Apparently, there’s such a thing as a “condom case.” I had no idea. They even sell them on Amazon.
There seem to be more options for men, so I looked for something aimed at women. Apparently, there’s a stylish, portable condom called SAIB, and it’s supposedly a hit product in Korea.
It seems to have been launched in Japan in 2020 as well, but it apparently didn’t sell very well—Amazon currently says it’s unavailable with no restock date.
It got me thinking: Korea is supposedly even more male-dominated than Japan, so maybe men there often don’t bring condoms? That would explain why women carry them for self-protection.
If that’s the case, maybe the fact that women in Japan don’t tend to carry condoms around is actually a good thing.
I wonder what it’s like in the West.
The next time someone asks about Christmas gifts, I think I’ll suggest, “A condom case would be a good idea.”

I’m Nana Ayase ☆
I’ve recently received several offers without condoms, so unless the allowance is especially good, I bring two condoms with me.
Why two? Because after things are over, if I’m touched on my back or elsewhere again, I might let out a sound and get aroused again. If you’re sensitive that way too, I recommend bringing two.

I think women should carry condoms too, just in case, because quite a few men say things like, “We don’t have any, so it’s fine to just do it this way, right?”
That said, some men dislike it when a woman has condoms with her, so it’s a tricky issue.
Some men even dislike it if you ask for your allowance as soon as you enter the room because it feels too “professional.”
I sometimes wonder what they’re talking about, but at the same time, it would be a shame to lose future opportunities over something like that.
Although, come to think of it, men like that tend to offer low allowances anyway, so I’m not sure they’re really opportunities at all…
> “If you want, why not put one of the condoms provided here at the love hotel in your pouch and take it home?”
Love-hotel condoms are quite thick, so considering the possibility that the man might then decide he hates condoms and want to go without protection, I wish she had given him a 0.01 mm or 0.02 mm one instead.
That said, I imagine she was worried that a size LL condom she brought herself might slip off.

I don’t have one, and I’ve never bought one myself. You’ve got me thinking that maybe it would be better to have one! Thank you!!

Basically, I don’t think women carry them for use with men.
Some women apparently carry condoms in their wallets because they believe it brings good luck with money, or keep ones at home that an ex-boyfriend left behind. But even in either of those cases, they probably wouldn’t take them out because they’d be seen as experienced.
Adding this after reading Mac’s answer: Come to think of it, I once received a Gucci condom case from a woman.
