I would never call it a curse, but there's a couple of quibbles. I've never found a condom that wasn't too tight around the base and some sex positions (like the cowgirl) just don't work that well. The first time you have sex with someone new, there's always some anxiety that you might cause them discomfort or even pain.

I've always thought it was kind of like a owning a big Cadillac: It looks great and it's fun to show off but it's not always practical in a tight situation.
