People getting ready to walk 2012 AIDS WALK

On July 21, 2013 I will be walking with the MAXPRO team in the San Francisco AIDS walk for the 3rd year in a row. This is the 28th annual San Francisco AIDS Walk. This event raises money and awareness for those living with AIDS in San Francisco Bay Area. This year I’ve been given the opportunity to take a bigger part and help put together the MAXPRO team for this event.

I would love to have you come walk with me and the MAXPRO Team, SF AIDS Walk.

The SF AIDS walk is held at Golden State Park every summer and has been going on since 1987. It was designed to raise funds for the SF AIDS Foundation & fight against the stigma that many associate with AIDS. The first walk raised $667,000 and had 6,000 participants. In the last 27 years this number has grown and we see thousands more people come and walk, and our donations grow. All the funds raised through the SF AIDS walk enables the SF AIDS Foundation and other health service organizations to continue providing services and knowledge about prevention as well as care and to advocate for the thousands of people living with HIV/AIDS in the San Francisco and Bay Area residents alone. Take a stand against the stigma that has become associated with HIV/AIDS by donating or walking with us.

I’d love to have you participate as a part of the MAXPRO team, Sign Up Page.

If you are unable to walk with us, please consider making a donation in our name to the San Francisco AIDS Walk through The MAXPRO Team Donation Page.

Don’t Fret If You’re Well Endowed

Posted on January 18, 2013 by MAXPRO Condom

It sounds like the opposite of what television, movies and dirty jokes would have us believe, but the truth is that life is not necessarily easy for the guy with a large penis. If you are someone who has a large penis, it might have been as much a source for angst as it is a source for fun, and in some cases, you may be facing serious problems for it.

For example, what is the best condom for a guy who is well-endowed? If you use normal condoms, you may find that they split on you between the friction and your girth. If you are larger in size, consider purchasing large condoms. This does not include a price hike, but you will find that not only are the condoms safer for you to wear, they are also more comfortable as well.

Some men who have large penises have issues with getting erect. There is some anecdotal evidence that states that people who are more generously endowed take longer to achieve erection, and this may be somewhat embarrassing for you. If this is an issue that you face, consider stretching out the foreplay. Lingering sex gives everyone time to get ready.

Many men who are well-endowed are worried about hurting their partner. Though this can be the case, the key is simply to concentrate on preparation and lubrication or to look into alternative forms of intercourse. Stretching your partner and being very generous with the water-based lubricant of your choice can have very positive results. There is more to sex than penetration after all. Oral sex and intracrural sex are not lesser forms of penetrative sex; they are great sex acts in their own right, so start trying those as well.

If you are well-endowed, remember that there ways around almost any problem that you can think of. Get creative, and when in doubt, ask a professional. There are answers out there that are waiting for you.

Plan Ahead And Buy Your Condoms

Posted on January 4, 2013 by MAXPRO Condom

We at Max Pro Condoms believe that safe sex is a right, and one of the best ways to make sure that you are prepared for your big night is to make sure that you have condoms on you. Some people think that having a condom on hand makes you look sleazy, or as though you are expecting something after a date. The truth is that it just means that you are prepared in case things take a turn for the truly exceptional!

If you have ever had that moment where you realized that you were ready to go, but you didn’t have a condom on you, remember that preparation is key. For example, if you know that you won’t remember to pick up condoms the next time that you are out, or if you are too shy to do so, you can always buy condoms online. Not only does this take the embarrassment factor out of the equation, you don’t have to worry about whether or not the store has the type that you need. For example, if you need extra large condoms or thin condoms, you can be sure to stock up.

There’s an old trope about keeping condoms in your wallet, but the truth is that you should really skip this classic. Condoms that reside in wallets often get flattened over time, which promotes tears. Similarly, because many people keep their wallets in their pockets, the heat can degrade the latex. Instead, choose a keychain that has a condom holder on it. A condom holder keeps your emergency condom from getting torn or overheated and if you have your keys on you, you’ll be good to go.

It is always a good idea to have condoms on hand; check the expiration date on the condoms you own right now and make sure that the ones that you have are still in good shape. If they’re not, why not order your favorites online and make sure that you are prepared?

The Film Industry Can Help Portray Condoms Positively

Posted on December 14, 2012 by Steven

Promoting the use of condoms in movies is one way to expose young people to the importance of safe sex. Many teens and young adults watch movies at least once a week. This is an excellent opportunity for movie producers to start a dialogue about using condoms. It can even be done in a way that is so over the top that people have little choice but to talk about it. A commercial a few years ago featuring pigs that turned into men once they purchased condoms definitely got the conversation going.

The genres most commonly watched by groups of teens and college students include comedy, action and horror. A scene featuring characters obviously stopping the physical action to get a condom is easy to include in these films, since they typically have at least one sex scene. Romantic comedies with dialogue between the two lead characters about safe sex, condom usage and sexual history can spark a conversation between a real life couple on a date.

Movies hold the potential for a great deal of power. Groups of friends start congregating at movie theaters as early as middle school. The ritual considers through high school graduation and beyond, especially in small cities and towns where there isn’t much else to do aside from go to the movies.

We applaud films that expose viewers to content and conversations about using condoms and participating in safe sex. Showing condom use on screen, regardless of if they are premium latex condoms, ultra thin condoms or any other variety the props department has on hand, helps to take the stigma out of buying, using and talking about them.

Our company has a commitment to promoting safe sex and we salute those who join us in this effort. Reaching teens and young adults requires something that catches their attention. Embedding it in the comedy, action and horror films they are already viewing is a great way to accomplish this goal.

Top 10 Non-Traditional Things To Do On A Date

Posted on December 7, 2012 by MAXPRO Condom

It’s true that traditional date methods are classic and respectful, but they can also cut short what could have been a beautiful relationship. The following’s a top-ten list of unique and fun activities to plan for a non-traditional date.

10. Game Night
This dating activity is a bit on the tame side for those not choosing to get too extreme just yet. Schedule a game night in which you and your date play anything, from classic board games to newly released video games.

9. Sporting Event
This activity is a great way to get to know one another while sharing a pleasant experience with an interest you both like. Even if your date likes a team that you don’t care for, consider offering to go to the game anyway.

8. Circus/Carnival
The circus is a fun and playful place to get to know your date. Bright lights, music, games, and rides will keep both of you in awe while enjoying each other’s company.

7. Arcade
Just as fun as the circus, but not nearly as expensive, the arcade is a great old school play ground full of close and personal opportunities for love to bloom.

6. Shooting Range
The shooting range is for the more rough and tough couple who enjoy danger. It’s a great choice, even if you’re scheduling a date with someone who’s never experienced it before.

5. Mountain Hiking
If you’re interested in the outdoors and exercise, this activity may be a great choice for your date. Enjoy beautiful sceneries while breaking a good sweat.

4. Urban Exploration
Urban exploration is the act of exploring unknown and unique areas, such as abandoned houses presumed to be haunted. This can be a very creepy experience, creating a very personal atmosphere between you and your date.

3. Road Trip
Are you a wild child with the compulsion to do crazy things? Consider going on a weekend road trip with a date. This activity is a little risky for those just getting to know each other, but it can cause sparks to fly if the mood’s right.

2. Strip Club
This choice definitely isn’t for anyone, but it can be a fun, intimate, or funny experience for couples on a first date. If you’re worried about things getting a little steamy, browse all kinds of bedroom supplies, such as small to large condoms, at retailers offering personal products. Remember, you can purchase condoms online as well.

1. Bungee Jumping
If you want to attempt being extreme as possible, consider bungee jumping as a date activity. If you’re brave enough, that is.
