A 2-year study by Indian Council of Medical Research concluded that the condoms made according to International standards are too large for Indian men.

The study claims –

50% of the penises measured were smaller than the International standard for condoms.

1 out of 5 condoms either falls off or tears during sex

60% of Indian men have penises which are between three and five centimetres shorter than international standards used in condom manufacture.

The study concludes my suggesting condom manufacturers to make customized condoms for Indians.

The study was done on 1200 Indian men from different areas of the country.

Over 1,200 volunteers from the length and breadth of the country had their penises measured precisely, down to the last millimetre. The scientists even checked their sample was representative of India as a whole in terms of class, religion and urban and rural dwellers. The conclusion of all this scientific endeavour is that about 60% of Indian men have penises which are between three and five centimetres shorter than international standards used in condom manufacture.

It seems like different sizes of condoms are available in India, but people are not made aware about it.

Mr Puri said that since Indians would be embarrassed about going to a chemist to ask for smaller condoms there should be vending machines dispensing different sizes all around the country. “Smaller condoms are on sale in India. But there is a lack of awareness that different sizes are available. There is anxiety talking about the issue. And normally one feels shy to go to a chemist’s shop and ask for a smaller size condom.” Source: news.bbc.co.uk

But then again, I doubt if a guy would go into a store and ask – “Is this the smallest you have?”
