Germans think they're well-hung - but they're not

BERLIN (Reuters) - Most German men wear condoms of the wrong size, a condom distributor has said, after asking more than 2,500 men to measure their erect penis.
"People measure their feet when they buy shoes. Why shouldn't they measure their penises? A man would not wear children's shoes," said Jan Vinzenz Krause of Vinico, which released the study's findings on World AIDS (news - web sites) Day.
Most condom boxes in Germany indicated size but men, due to embarrassment or vanity, rarely checked or just bought those marked "extra large", he said on Wednesday.
Vinico's survey recommended various brands to be used -- depending on the endowment of the wearer.
The study found the average erect penis size was 14.7 cm (5-3/4 inches), with 40 percent of participants reporting lengths between 12 and 15 cm (4-3/4 and 5-7/8 inches).
When compared with the condoms normally used by the participants, the results showed only 18 percent wore the right size, with nearly half squeezing into condoms that were too small and 34 percent trying to use those that were too big.
Hi mojojockey...
Believe it or not, you were never created to be "gay". Please know that your Creator can make you the way He intended you to be...and He is more than willing, because He loves you.
There is help. Focus on the Family has people who love to work with "gay" people to bring them into the fullness of life which was meant for them. I don't know if you have to go to one of their seminars, but please check out their website...lovewonout.com.
They do this because they know the truth, they love God, and they love you. I will pray for your healing.
I'm a festive conservative.
I think what he does sexually with other men is disgusting.
Ditto.
I pointed this out earlier in another thread, and I wonder if you concur. Is it easier to come out as gay to straights, or to come out as a conservative to other gays? I said that it's probably tougher to do the latter.
No.
haha! that was funny! :) like the sarcasm mojo!
