You can do more research on your own by Googling something like condom sizes, but http://www.condomdepot.com/ does give measurements of condoms (look at the menu on the bottom left of the screen). Most experts suggest trying out a regular condom, and if it's in danger of falling off, try a "snugger/closer fit" style. If it's cutting off circulation or painfully tight, try out a larger style. But be very careful because if you don't actually have a gigantic member, it's likely to slip off, exposing both of you to pregnancy and STDs. I'd think if you're 4-8 inches and have a fairly normal width, regular should work the best.

LOL I think condom sizes are dumb...mostly a way for men to feel bigger than they really are. However, I was talking to a rather clueless male friend who just started dating after many years, and he said the condom cut off all feeling... his words were, "I had to ask her if it was in or not." He's a big guy physically, so I suggested the larger condoms might be something to try. So in that kind of situation, an XL is probably warranted.LadyG said:Well don't I just feel stupid now.
kinda had that happen to me, i used condoms, but never could get any feeling with them. i just figured it was normal. then while picking some up at a walmart the only typy they had left was magnum. i need them so i bought them, they were a perfect fit for the width. and right away i noticed more feeling during sex.

First let me say that this isint a way for me to feel larger than I am, that has nothing to do with it. I have tried regular condoms they are hard to get on and feel like they could burst. I understand that a condom being too large can be dangerous, but i think one streched to its limit is dangerous too. I just want a condom that fits right so I can be safe.

Brands also differ. I don't exactly have a sledge hammer but Lifestyles are really tight and I can't even feel my member after having one on for more then 10 minutes. I remember having sex once and not being able to feel if I was hard or not.
Regular Durex are the way to go in my book.

Condom Size Joke!
During WW2 the Russians made a request to Great Britain for 100,000 condoms of size 12" long by 3" girth. As this would require a huge amount of scarce rubber it was referred to Winston Churchill for a decision.
He thought about it for a few days and then said ' Send them but mark them British Made, Medium Size'

Goog Churchill joke
I remember that Playboy was suggested, when going to Japan and planing eventually sex, then carry own condoms, as the asians are mostly smaller...
And small condom is a problem, because it is not only very hard to even slip it on, but it also make impossible to stay hard, when it hurts like bi*ch
...who could say that nonstandard size could bring such problems to one...

I have tried various brands and despite their claims there really isn't much difference in size. Small is too small for an average sized guy and large refers to length and I didn't feel them being too loose. I think the most important factor is the thickness - the thinner the condom the more natural the sensation. I even tried ribbed and dotted condoms and my partners didn't think much of them. So try to find the thinnest standard fit.

Too tight is definitely a bad thing, and limits the effectiveness of the condom. Try Magnums or Magnum XLs, if you need larger-sized condoms. They're available pretty much everywhere, and you can experiment to see which ones work best. Worked for me.

I dont think im huge, but the woman seem to think so lol. I had issues with regular condoms tearing almost 50% of the time though (tried a bunch of different ones) and always thought they were kinda tight, but I figured they were supposed to be. I went up to the trojan magnums and havnt had a torn one yet and they seem to feel better. Im probably aorund 8" and fairly thick, so I guess the woman maybe werent just trying to make me feel good by saying its big? lol

Wow, I had completly forgot about this thread. needless to say I have since solved the problem...lol
I watched a demonstration on an HBO special one time where this woman said she thought that condom sizes were mostly to bolster the sagging male ego. She then proceeded to take a regular condom and stretched it over her hand and arm, all the way up to nearly her elbow. It was pretty hilarious to watch. She told the women in the audience to "mention this little demonstration next time your man starts going off on a tangent about how he needs a bigger size."

Of course, I can punch a wall and not hurt myself nearly as badly as if I cock-slap a wall with the same force. Hmmm...

Tell that woman to stick to giving advice on womans body parts. Its hard to say what works well if you dont have the equipment your talking about. It would be like a guy trying to say ribbed condoms are the greatest thing in the world, how would he know?
