Do gay men have to wear condoms?

Yes, although the purpose of wearing it may vary slightly. Since homosexual intercourse cannot result in pregnancy, condoms are worn primary to prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases.

It is important that couples who engage in homosexual intercourse also use a water-based lubricant on top of wearing a condom since the anus does not release a natural lubrication. This will also prevent the condom from getting damaged during intercourse.
