Well, that's why we don't use em.

Just found that out, did they? Not too late, I guess we can still stop before we reach the 2 billion mark.

How relevant is a survey of 1,000 men to the entire population of Indian men?

...and the point being?

Back in the dark ages of the Cold War, as a propaganda exercise, the Russian army placed an order with a US condom maker for 50,000 condoms to fit 14 inches long by 4 inches diameter.

The American condom manufacturer fullfilled the order with each condom clearly marked "MEDIUM"

I don't if this happened here as well, but several years ago the company that manufactures Trojan® condoms came out with a brand in the United States called "Trojan® Large," which were for men of... let's just say "significance" and leave it at that.

Sales of this new brand went through the roof -- people couldn't find them anywhere at first. I mean think about it from a guy's perspective: there's the beautiful white-trash checkout girl who looks wide-eyed at the counter as you casually slide your box of extra large condoms over to the register.

Now reconsider the above in the polar opposite, as you slide that box of "Trojan® Small" across the counter...

Ouch.

Oh -- and the sales of "Trojan® Large?" They tanked after awhile -- and women all across the United States could be heard giggling the words "who are you kidding?" for years...

I remember back in the early days (start of the AIDS era) when they rebranded small/medium/large condoms as large/extra-large/jumbo.

Usually smaller size condoms have deceptively tactful names, such as "snug fit".

But like they say, it's what you do with it that counts. And Indians wrote the Kama Sutra, so an extra inch can't be much of an issue ;)
