Abstract

Results of a survey of 318 university students show that condoms (CNs) were considered effective but offensive and unattractive to use. Women considered CNs more offensive than men. Concerns about the CN may be a barrier to intentions to change behavior to prevent the spread of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and need to be addressed by health education campaigns.
