report a poor fit
Guess first
Show me the answer
Manufacturing defects are close to negligible — every condom from a regulated producer is electronically tested for holes. What fails is use. In surveys around 45 per cent of men report using a condom that did not fit properly, and poor fit is associated with breakage, slippage, lost erection and reduced sensation.
Length matters far less than width, which is the dimension almost nobody checks. The nominal width is printed on the box, and standard sizes cluster around 52 to 56 millimetres while the actual useful range runs from about 45 to 69.
Did you know
The second most common failure is putting it on late — after some contact has already happened. Typical-use failure rates for condoms run around 13 per cent per year, against 2 per cent with perfect use. Almost all of that difference is behaviour.
The sex-toy guide
A shop has two hundred of them. One of them is right for you.
Seven questions: who it is for, what sounds appealing, how quiet it has to be, what it may cost. Out comes one type — with what to look for, what it costs, and what nobody prints on the box.

For the two of you
Find out what you both want — without either of you saying it first.
You each answer twenty questions on your own, and neither of you ever sees the other’s answers. Only what you both said yes or maybe to comes back. A no and a maybe look identical from outside, so saying no costs nothing — which is what makes the answers honest.
