Sadly, there are far too many women (and men) who’ve had the experience of a bloke they’re about to sleep, with refusing to wear a condom.
Amongst the many excuses offered up to avoid protection from sexually transmitted diseases, are that the condom ‘won’t fit’. Why? Because the gentleman in question has an appendage that is just SO LARGE it couldn’t possibly be squished into that tiny banana sized plastic bag of a thing.
We’ve called bullshit in our heads on this many-a-time but now the myth of penises being ‘too big’ for condoms has been officially debunked.
Swedish Pop Star Zara Larsson has laid some harsh truth on that claim, stretching a condom over her entire lower leg like some lubricated latex stocking.
So to blokes flashing a gold-packet of Magnum condoms around like you’re Jon Hamm, claiming they’re too big for regular condoms? We’re onto you.
Condoms can get big. Very big. As anyone who has tried to prove it by blowing one up as a balloon knows. (If you haven’t, take our word for it. Inhaling lubricated latex air is actually terrible).
But this is the first time we’ve seen a condom used as point-making-fashion-accessory. And while we like it, we’re hoping that condom leggings don’t become a thing any time soon.

My boyfriend has a large penis. Even the extra large condoms are veey difficult to put on and (reportedly) uncomfortable to wear. No so much the latex but the ring. Yes, it can probably be stretched to fit over something much larger than a penis (e.g. a leg, a head) but anyone who's put a very tight hair elastic around their wrist would know that jusy because it fits, doesn't mean it's comfortable. The ring of condoms digs in to large penises and it certainly looks uncomfortable to me as a female. It's not always an excuse to get out of wearing one.
Some men genuinely do find some condoms uncomfortable, just find the ones that don't cause them pain! Sheesh, a leg is not a penis.
