I am a graphic designer who recently did an ad for Trojan. When I gave the pitch, I asked them how they tested the condoms, and he said a regular condom should hold 3 Liters of water. I have bought magnums before, and the are more expensive. Is my ego costing me money? My cock is not as big as a 3 liter of Dr. fuckin'Pepper. I know I like em tight so no babies happen, but my roomate once put a regular sized condom over his head and blew it up with his nose until it popped.

Our ego and our posture gets us good jobs, and with more confidence you get paid more, and with more ego you have to pay more. Are we really supposed to believe that until abut 10 years ago our hung forefathers went without? Or is that the sole explanation of the existence for this site?

It's like Ben says, the fact that it is physically possible to fit a large penis into a standard sized condom does not mean that it's the size you want to wear.

The condom size issue is not a matter of physical impossibility, but more a matter of comfort and safety. Comfortwise, yes, a standard condom will stretch far enough to cover a large penis, but it is not going to feel good. Did your roommate find the condom comfortable when he had it stretched over his noggin? I'm guessing not. Obviously, that's more extreme than stretching the condom over even the largest penis, but it's the same principle. Safetywise, it's obvious that a too-tight condom is more likely to break during sex. There is also more danger of slipping off--yes, ironically, a too-tight condom can be a factor in slipping off because of the increased friction when squeezed during intercourse (or something like that, I'm no scientist). Also, for those of us who are significantly longer than standard condoms, when the ring at the base of the condom goes into the vagina it can catch on the out-stroke and lead to the condom being pulled off.

I speak from some experience. I'm probably not old enough to be a forefather, but I am old enough to have started sexual activity a couple years or so before any larger size condom options were available. So I had a period of struggling with standard condoms for lack of any alternative. About 15 or so years ago the first "larger" condoms came on the market--Kimono Maxx. I was thrilled when I first heard about them--turned out they were only very slightly larger than standard, not really big enough for a good fit for me but better than nothing. There was only minimal improvement over the years when Magnum and Trojan Large came on the market until Magnum XL was a major advance. Then they finally come out with They Fit--finally offering a size that is a really good fit for me. Just my luck, though, by then I was in my current longterm relationship with the woman I will eventually marry, and I have no need for condoms.

Sorry for the long post. But you whippersnappers don't know how good you have it. :smile: Bottom line, yes, condom size matters, at least for those of us with penises that are significantly outside the range of average.

Donk hit the nail on the head with his quote, "when the ring at the base of the condom goes into the vagina it can catch on the out-stroke and lead to the condom being pulled off."

That has always been my major problem with "normal" condoms. And they are uncomfortably tight as well (especially when you're already used to using Magnums).

As far as my first experience buying Magnums, I don't actually remember. The first condoms I bought were in Mexico on vacation, and I did indeed by larger ones. I still remember the name..."Trojan Mas Ancho." I knew enough Spanish to understand that meant "wider." The reason I tell this story is because the clerk (female) was hilarious. She knew I was a Gringo, and young at the time, and assumed I didn't understand that these condoms were larger than normal. She kept asking me if I was certain I wanted these ones, and I was like, "yes I'm sure!" LOL

yeah, once you go to the magnums, you can't really backstep any... got some free lifestyle's "tuxedo" condoms... when i have no magnums, i have put them on. they feel like a tight rubberband going down my wang.

uhh.. i always had an issue buying condoms, period. i guess it was because the first time i bought condoms, the Indian guy at the counter looked at me and made a "ehhhhhhhhhh...!" sound, and from that point on, he'd give me and my chick looks everytime we were in his store together. so that gave me a complex.

the first time i bought magnums, of course, i got the very attractive female clerk, who gave me the "you don't need these, shorty" look. then i saw her later walking towards me on the street and she laughed as i passed her. the best reaction though was just two days ago at a wal-mart checkout. the clerk was ringin me and my wife out after having a horrible 20 minute wait for a manger to fix a problem with her EBT card thingy (the place was PACKED, there were no other queues to go to). she was kiding around, making small talk, trying to make us feel better about being stuck in a wal-mart check-out line for about 40 minutes, and then she unearthed the condoms, quick looked at me, quick looked at my wife putting bags into the cart, turned bright red, and stopped talking until she was done ringing us up.

that was funny. i felt a lil embarassed, but i don't think i felt as bad as that poor girl did.

and in classic internet-literary fashion, "WTF," i say...

I bought my first Magnums off the internet so I didn't have to worrie about anyone seeing me purchase them. I also found the same problem with regular size condoms, just too damn tight. So I bought some Magnum XL just to see how they fit and too my amazement they almost fit! Wow, I didn't think I was that big. But the Magnums fit me alot better. So just because I can wear Magnum size condoms does that mean anything as far as size? So am I hung?
