1mm wider. Is that significant?
It reminds me of the old story from the Cold War days. Russia ordered 12 inch condoms from America. America supplied them marked 'medium'.

Dear Timmy,
there's a lot to say about condoms and certainly insufficient room here!
On me most are inclined, when fully 'on', to roll up a bit and trap hairs and so become uncomfortable. I guess this only happens if the penis diameter increases as the root of it is approached. Do other people find this?
In my case, since I don't really get hard enough for penetrative sex, even with chemical assistance, that means I am no longer either as thick or as long when erect as I used to be in my youth.
The largest size of condom such as Trojan Magnums are sufficiently roomy to accommodate my balls as well, without squeezing them. That, of course, brings them (the condoms, silly!) into close contact with more hair and consequent discomfort in taking them off.
Hence the rationale for shaving or at least trimming some of one's pubic hair.
Does anyone else find the same problems? Do I have to admit to a condom fetish to draw you in?
Love,
Anthony

I don't think 1 mm is significant. Common diameters vary from at a minimum 43 mm to 54 mm (which I think is too loose for anyone but giants).
I'll try to attach Condomania's list of sizes of popular condoms.
Love,
Anthony

Madame de Sevigne (1626-1696) described condoms as "gossamer against infection, steel against love."

The paradox has often been noted that the United States, founded in secularism, is now the most religiose country in Christendom, while England, with an established church headed by its constitutional monarch, is among the least. (Richard Dawkins, 2006)

Madame de Sevigné was right for those times. The latex condoms of today are another question.

In his response to me Anthony hints - very gently - that I perhaps should have thought twice or three times before posting that quip of Madame de Sévigné. And he is absolutely right! In this day and age condoms are an essential that no one who is sexually active should be without at any time. Mea culpa.

I was amused earlier today that over the in-house 'radio' system my local pharmacy was offering "Buy one Durex, get one free".
Hmm, packet of three plus a packet for free.

Dear JFR, the thought of such a hint hadn't entered my head. All I was doing was teasing you - but I had to avoid the suggestion that you are so old as to remember her because I know I'm older than you!
Love,
Anthony

Did I ever tell you, Nigel, that I was Management Services Manager for LRI, the manufacturers of Durex?
The staff got free samples!
Love,

Anthony, is that how they were tested? And did you make Marigolds as well?

I couldn't attach the table (of sizes) but here is a link to it:

If you buy anything from him send Christopher Filkins my best wishes.
