Did you hear about how during the Cold War, Russia had a shortage of condoms, and - figuring that the fewer Russians being born, the better - America decided to pitch in and help them in a rare gesture of friendship? America sent over a plane-load of condoms, all of them thirteen inches long, and about two wide. The boxes were marked:
Are you sure those weren’t referring to the size of the box – that is, the number of condoms in the box?
The difference in size is mainly in the width, and isn’t that much in actual measurements – a quarter-inch. Regular is 1.75" wide, large is 2", and extra-large is 2.25". There’s not much difference in length. It’s not critical, since the latex stretches in that direction.
I don’t have a problem as long as I keep using these. They’re a little snug but they work.
Seriously, though, they are latex and will fit the width of an adult man. If they are too long, just don’t unroll it all the way.
Regular is 1.75" wide, large is 2", and extra-large is 2.25"!!!.. Laid flat or is that diameter? I need to know for peace of mind…
I recall one lady at work who had a package of those finger cots neatly packaged from a novelty store; labelled as “ultra-reliable condoms, for your husband. These have been tested extensively on lab rats and are guaranteed to work.” Some other woman at the office got them for her as a birthday gift.
Back in high school, and friend of mine told me about his first time condom buying experience, saying he had accidentally brought to the counter a box which was labeled ‘snug fit’. This would seem to be as non-offensive way to say ‘small’ as I can think of. I’ve never noticed them marked that way myself, but I’ve only looked hard enough to make sure I didn’t buy them by mistake.
… and I’m not going to google ‘snug fit condoms’ from work.
If they never get dates, how does anyone ever find out they’re too small? It seems to me that, by the time your date is finding out how you’re hung, you’re already at the point where you can call the evening a success.
It stretches in width, too. You can stretch a condom to about a foot in diameter before it breaks.
The name for … smaller sized condoms from at least one common manufacturer is “ultra fit”. And yeah, I know it, because … well, yeah, you know. Ahh-yeah. So. Uh–yeah. Next question?
That’s only funny if you read it out loud, slowly.
They should label them like my high school labeled their academic tracks: Honors, Advanced, “____”. Of course, the students just said “he’s in stupid-English”.
Precisely the reason why I don’t work out my legs in the gym. If my pants are off, mission: accomplished!
Yes, when inflated by a pump, or stretched by hand. But in use, if it has to stretch a lot, it feels way too tight to be comfortable for people. Apparently, about 1/4 inch of stretching is about as much as customers will accept. At least, that seems to be what manufacturers have decided on as the difference between sizes.
George: Do women know about shrinkage?
Elaine: What do you mean, like laundry?
George: No.
Jerry: Like when a man goes swimming… afterwards…
Elaine: It shrinks?
Jerry: Like a frightened turtle!
Elaine: Why does it shrink?
George: It just does.
Elaine: I don’t know how you guys walk around with those things.
