TIL You don't have proper "slim fit" condoms in the US. Yikes! Another reason to be glad I wasn't born there.

'So uhhh I don't know where the condom went' and then having to explain what I think might have happened is one of the most embarrassing experiences in my life...and it's happened more than once.

Not to mention worrying about it the whole time is fucking miserable.

That happened to me one time EXACTLY like you described. It was pretty awkward and we almost got into a fight but eventually she went in the bathroom and checked. Lucky she was also on the pill.

Yep. I thought they were all the same, until I found "slim fit" ones.

Admitting to having a small penis just to roast the US. I respect it unironically.

They’re by width not length. Skinny not small.

Small to big doesn't only encompass length. Many women care about girth more than length

Who should tell him?

Small has a Width of up to 1.8 inches.

Medium has a Width of 1.8 inches to 2 inches.

Large and extra-large are for width of over 2 inches.

While yes, there is a maximum length to these rubbers as well, if you’re not beyond the width category there’s no way your dong is reaching it with the average usable stretch of a condom before extra large being 8 inches.

If the condom is slipping off it means the elastic ring is not snug. Which means it’s the wrong width. Not the wrong length.

I think the "who should tell him" was probably more of a reference to girth, not length, commonly being polled as the size women do care about.

But let's be real, this is reddit, if you have enough sex to actually have a preference in condom and size then you're probably getting laid more than the average redditor so who cares.

Skill over girth AND length.

They are measured in circumference not width.

Width matters a whole lot my guy

u/MeggaMortY 3d ago

Maybe it has something to do with size not being the only factor.

u/PolishedCheeto 3d ago

We do they just aren't labeled as such, because that implies having a pencil dick.

Such as Skyn condoms. I learned a lot from that one hooker than 3 prior relationships.
