This reminds me of a cartoon I saw in MAD Magazine. Guy has a condom vending machine next to his store that is getting no action. Guy has a stroke of genius- Buys a second condom machine. On the first one he puts "small condoms". On the second one he puts "LARGE condoms". As you can imagine this results in a line all around the corner.

This wouldn't be necessary if they were to make condoms out of an elastic material that stretches out.

This doesn't tackle the girth issue, which I've found to be the bigger problem.

Length ways, I'm only slightly larger than average and in that respect most standard large sizes fit. However, I'm as big around a child's forearm. This is much more troublesome. Some condoms cut off circulation or leave a deep indentation that can last for days.

I think the only time a laughed at bathroom graffiti is some I read on a condom vending machine in a college bathroom. "Don't buy this gum - it tastes like rubber!"

Japan already sells contraceptives where you can decide how thick the rubber is. They're here in Korea now too. You can get ones as thin as 0.03mm (feels "almost" like you don't have one) . The thinner the better I think, but that's me! I'd gamble before wearing the industrial rubber ones - no matter how well they fit. Maybe it's because I'm Catholic, or maybe I just prefer Asian sensibilities on the matter. No idea

The Okamoto zero zero three.

From the website: "New feelings. Warmth easily go through." Sounds like a good company slogan. Laughing
