Apparently in Europe they are soon going to have available 70 or so different sized condoms. In the states, the FDA doesn't allow very small or very large condoms, and supposedly the Magnums are just slightly larger than regular ones. This
HERE is the printable sizing chart which is used to determine the size necessary.
It is also true that using the wrong side condom also increases the risk of breakage or slippage which in turn can create more problems then not using one in the first place. I know this for a fact whereas I've had condoms break multiple times, and I kind of don't trust them. Bought a pack of magnums once but didn't really have sex with someone I didn't know well enough not to trust.
Has this ever been a problem for you or your SO? Would you like to see multiple sizes of condoms available in the United States?
True

Yeah. The Durex kind seem too tight and we've had them break, but another kind was too loose and fell off. We said forget it and started using other methods instead.
It would be pretty nice to have, I will admit.
This is such an interesting concept!
Awesome.
I think the states should try.
maybe condoms would feel better if they fit better? people would definitely use them more then
The Lifestyles one are perfect for me, but Durex are way too tight and it hurts my tiny mini-me.
But honestly, it'll cost a lot of $ for companies to produce this. It's easier to always form one "universal" shape 'cause it's faster and easier for them to make.
I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon (in very affordable prices that is). But then again, it's a nice idea and it should implement soon if it increases performance and anti-breakage.
That's hilarious!
We should definitely have it in the US.
lol
Interesting. Haha.
Interesting... this will be useful.
thats weird that durex is tight for some people because my boyfriend is quite large and says they feel the most comfortable for him... maybe he just likes being squeezed.
i think we should definatly have different sizes over here too.
LMFAO.
The third one on the first row looks scary. D;
@mywordsx@xanga - Yeah, talk about it...it looks like that medieval weapon that has a big metal ball covered in spikes at the end of a wooden stick.
LOL.
@mywordsx@xanga - AHH omg i didn't even notice until i read your comment O_O
lol
i think this is a great idea.
theres too many people buying magnums out there just cuz they think its the cool thing to do when the magnums are actually kinda BAGGY on them. All personal opinions aside, a condom taht doesnt fit properly definitely does change the mood [if its too loose u spend the whole time fuckin w/ it.] and not only that it could also increase ur chances of pregnancy [too tight = rip or invisible holes = sperms free to roam if u know what i mean lol]
over all,
i think we should definitely have this new system! =]
It's a good idea, but I think it'd be a hassle needing to find the right size.
Meh, sometimes its kinda "huge", while other times its not as huge by comparison to what its like when it IS "huge". I've found my brand/type that fits me like i need it to so i dont think spending the extra loot to get a custom fit will solve any problems other than low blows to my bank account.
I think it's a good idea. They should do this in the US.
The only problem would be extra cost =/
Hmmm. They should have a promo pack first? lol.
that's interesting.
some of those condoms on that clothesline look painful :shudder:
i think thats a good idea but wtf are those spikes and shit on the condom for?!? lol
Seems like an excellent plan, honestly. I mean if us women have 40-bajillion different bra sizes, it would seem sensible to need a variety of condom sizes for you men. It would make us women being stocked up on condoms a little trickier, however.
lol.
