The worst part about condoms - and how a company can reform it

We all know how important condoms are for safe sex, but until now, condoms have been uncomfortable. With Boston Global Conservation launching a series of new condoms, men can now choose a customized condom that suits them.

According to the New York Times, the Myone Perfect Fit condom series has 60 sizes, 10 lengths and 9 perimeters in different combinations. So, in other words, it makes sense for everyone. Hallelujah! The length of the condom ranges from 4.9 inches to 9.4 inches and the circumference from 3.5 inches to 5 inches. To find the perfect size, the company offers a "FitKit" with a printable measuring tool that specifies the size with random letters and numbers rather than inches.

The company then provides free samples to ensure that condoms are a perfect fit and that customers can purchase them at one time or set up monthly subscriptions (all orders arrive in prudent packaging, guaranteed by the company). The price of 24 condoms per package is 66 cents; the price of 6 condoms per package is $1.66. The concept of

may change the rules of the game in condom use. A recent federal study found that only one third of American men use condoms. Past complaints are generally related to health. Yes.

According to the Times, although studies have determined that the average erect penis is one inch shorter, the standard size of a condom is at least 6.69 inches long, which obviously causes problems in condom comfort.

Debbie Herenick, a sexual health expert at Indiana University, told the Times. In Hepburn's study of 1661 American men, the average penis length was 5.57 inches, and 83% of the participants had shorter penis lengths than standard condoms.

The Times pointed out that although the excess latex could be rolled up, men complained that condoms slipped and that larger condoms sometimes became too tight due to the accumulation of latex at the bottom. Ouch. Customized condoms first appeared in Europe in 2011 and were produced by theyfit. Yfit was acquired by the Global Conservation Organization, but it took years of collaboration with the FDA and other public health organizations to launch the product in the United States. This is due to strict testing standards to ensure that condoms do not leak when water is added and do not burst when inflated.

Since the approval of the Global Protection Organization, the response has been promising: Davin Wedel, president of the company, told the Times that they had received all 60 sizes of orders within hours of listing. But he acknowledged that there was still work to be done, mainly because of the huge image problem of condoms, which they hoped to change in the process of continuing to work closely with the Public Health Organization.

So there is absolutely no reason not to have safe sex now. If for any reason you don't have sex yet, here's how you can benefit from both.
