Also? The more practice you get at using barriers, the better you get at using them. It really doesn’t take much time at all to learn to open up and apply any barrier in no time.
An experienced barrier-user is not at at all likely to have “so much pausing.”
But you’re going to often have a bunch of different pauses with consensual sex involving two or more people anyway. Pausing to communicate, for instance, takes time too, as does all kinds of things like finding positions that work for everyone, adding more lube, or even just using the bathroom.
Lastly, with or without HPV, unless in your life you and your partners just don’t want to protect yourselves from STIs at all, which isn’t likely or advisable, you’re going to have to learn to use barriers anyway.
