NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Condoms designed to meet international size specifications are too big for many Indian men as their penises fall short of what manufacturers had anticipated, an Indian study has found.
The Indian Council of Medical Research, a leading state-run centre, said its initial findings from a two-year study showed 60 percent of men in the financial capital Mumbai had penises about 2.4 cm (one inch) shorter than those condoms catered for.
For a further 30 percent, the difference was at least 5 cm (two inches). A poor fit meant the prophylactics often didn't do the job they were bought for, and led to some tearing or slipping off during use.
"One of the reasons for a failure of up to 20 percent (of condoms) is the association of the size of the condom to the erect penis," the council's Dr. Chander Puri told Reuters, adding another reason was couples often put them on in a hurry.
Puri said many men in India, which has the world's highest HIV positive caseload, were too shy to ask for condoms.
"We need more vending machines for condoms of different sizes so people can pick a condom with confidence that is suited to their needs," he said.
The Times of India reported the ICMR survey had studied 1,400 men between 18-50 years of age in cities like Mumbai and New Delhi as well as in rural areas in a report. It en led its story "Indian men don't measure up".

I'd kill myself if a condom ever just slipped off. Geez, how sad for these guys.
Pakidan won't post for a month now...
I guess before saying, "Thank you, come again". They should make sure they are able to make their ladies "come" the first time.
So finally we learn how scientists figured out that Indians are related to white people!
Ah, never thought I'd see the day.
White people cracking on another race about size.
( For the record, I'm not Indian. But I know a lot of you don't know, or care to know, the difference. So I'll just assume Paki/Indian are interchangeable in your insults)
In general I think every ethnicity besides Black people have smaller penises. Asians, Whites, Middle Easterns etc........... There will be, however, many misnomers in the other ethnicities.
None of the groups you mentioned is an ethnicity.
It's called "Plan B" and it sells for 45 bucks
oh really? they are selling Plan B for AIDS/HIV infections now?
Sorry, it's the conservative in me that was assuming while he was banging her he would have already known that sort of thing
Because impoverished peasants and slum dwellers take their dates down to the friendly neighborhood Planned Parenthood before their passionate nights of Kama Sutra lovemaking, yes?
On the bright side, some states have proposed making HIV testing mandatory for people applying for marriage licenses, although none of the proposals has yet passed to my knowledge.
