You have been advised how condoms look when one fails. They never get little holes.

I stand by my statement that I have never read anything believable where someone said they had a hole in the condom. You know what causes people to fill a condom with water? Anxiety. What does anxiety do...plays with your mind. Someone sees a drip of water after filling the condom up, but there is no way that any water would be on the outside of the condom right? It has to be a hole right?

IT DOESN'T HAPPEN.

Do an experiment...go out and get condoms. Make a hole in one down at the tip or near the tip, then masterbate and see what happens.

When a condom fails, it fails catastrophically. You never have to put water in a condom to check it.

I have never saw a believable post where someone found a hole. I have had a condom break and it breaks wide open. Condoms are designed that way. They do not get small holes, if it gets a hole it's done on the next thrust.

If you were supposed to check condoms for holes they would tell you to and it would not be a reliable use to stop for STD/HIV transmission and pregnancy.
