This Is How Big You Need To Be To Fit Into A Large Condom

All men have one pride and joy.

It is of course their manhood.

There's all those old quips about 'size doesn't matter' and 'it's not how big it is, it's how you use it' - but fuck that. We all want massive lengths.

You'll find an awful lot of things that will define and determine whether or not you have a 'big' penis. However, I reckon fitting into a large sized condom is pretty much the best way to justify what is considered as 'big'.

So how big do you need to be to fit into a large condom?

Men's Fitness revealed that you need to have a length of 8.07 inches, a width of 2.13 inches and a head width of 2.36 inches to get the proper fit into a Trojan Magnum condom.

Durex's XL condoms, however, are slightly bigger and if you're buying those on the regular - well done, I guess.

They have a length of 8.46 inches, a width of 2.20 inches and a head width of 2.48 inches.

To put all of that into perspective, the average penis size is 5.13 inches according to research published in the journal BJU International.

According to Men's Fitness 25% of men in America have tried large condoms. But I suspect a fair portion of that percentage is made up of men trying them, and then throwing them away because they don't quite meet the requirements.

The condoms you're probably used to slipping on are standard Durex ones. Whether it's 'extra sensitive', 'extra lubrication', 'thin feel', 'ribbed', 'dotted' or 'extra safe', Durex are usually your go to brand.

Their standard Johnnys are a total length of 7.5 inches and a width of 2.05 inches, which isn't too far behind Trojan's large ones.

If you think that a Durex XL condom still won't fit you - and I won't believe you if say that's the case - try My Size condoms, which boast a length of 8.77 inches.
