While I don't doubt that many XL condoms are bought by guys who don't really need them, the common suggestion in this article that no one needs larger condoms is PC, feel-good crap at its worst. One thing that's really stupid--this article has an example--is the same people who will argue that "one size fits all" since latex stretches will, in the same breath, say that small differences in condom length and width can't make that much difference in fit. (For the record, though, the Durex so-called XXL, while very long, is very average in width and a tight fit if you are over average girth.)

Someone is buying the big ones or the companies wouldn't keep making them. And I bet most average-size guys who buy one box of Magnum XL's to boost their ego donot go back for a second box. Think about it--how good can it be for the ego to slip on a condom and have it be a very loose fit?
