I don't think I've ever seen a box of condoms labelled "small".
Normal marketing practice would seem to dictate "large", "extra
large", and "enormous".

Or "large", "grande" and "venti"....r

Is this size thing a joke? I ask because I had no idea that condoms
would be sold in various sizes. Aren't they "one size fits all"?

The display rack for condoms at the CSV where I get my prescriptions
filled is right next to the prescription counter. While I have not
checked for what range of sizes are available, I have noted that
Trojan offers "Magnum" "Larger Size" condoms.

I think that's pure marketing genius. If you wanted to introduce a
brand, and wanted some instant sales, offering a larger size condom
would do the trick.

Now if Trojan wanted to *really* nail a market share, they should make
Magnums 15% *smaller* than standard condoms and advertise them as 15%
larger. Imagine the pride when a guy can say that he tried extra
large condoms but they were too small!
