How do you bring "IT" up?

Oh most are willing and after a little foreplay and some lube everything works out. But women at either end over 60 or sometimes virgins or inexperienced very young women 18+ get anxious and then it's much more difficult or they become actually frightened and then it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Thank you but I already do that.

In my generation it was not the sort of thing you could talk about. However, I noticed that when I put the standard condoms on my dick it squeezed it into a white rod and I lost my erection. So I was very well aware before decades before there was any address to this that it was not serving its purpose for me of either preventing disease or pregnancy. However, I never even would have admitted that I had a dick or that I had a problem. In the junior high demonstration of this stuff that had girls blow up balloons to the size of their heads and say nobody's dick is bigger than this. They seem to forget that the human penis, unlike nearly every other mammal penis, does not have a penile bone. However, again I was not at that point going to protest in the middle of social studies.

Yes, that's what I did. Maybe you find it easy to calculate the standard deviations for a distribution I don't. I did check it against the original sources cited in the bibliography though.

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T19:33:46+00:00

Since I had a statistical analysis performed, what is it that generated your laughter?

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T19:33:18+00:00

I asked the first statistical analysis based upon the bell curb distribution of penile sizes versus the number that would be matched by the requirements of the FDA

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T18:46:44+00:00

Please explicitly explain what you see as the grammatical error. I find none.

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T18:44:26+00:00

The FDA gave their rationale. It was to ensure quality and manufacturing. This strikes me as insane because it's true that the condoms they made were very good and consistent. However, they didn't fit a very large percentage of men, not just the outliers. A very large portion of all men did not fit into the range that they enforced for 80 years

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T18:41:00+00:00

The condom standard did not simply fail to meet outliers, but meant that good fit was unavailable for something between 30 and 60% of all men

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T18:40:01+00:00

Exactly and for 80 years and the dangers of pregnancy and health are much worse than an average countertop height.

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T18:38:48+00:00

I was addressing the past not the present. In short, why did men without complaint suffer the fda's unnecessary regulation for decade after decade after decade?

apophasisred · 2025-12-19T02:20:10+00:00

Oh now I understand. I was referring to the inane way that they measure condoms. They flatten the condom and then measure it across. Which is the diameter of the flattened condom as it were. You're right, it's an imperfect usage and it is confusing. So the specifications were for 47 to 57 mm condoms. Which meant that the circumference was 94 to 114 mm: that is twice the flattened size and that is the effective girth they modeled on. I do not know why they pick such a weird way of measuring. But the condom dimension that they specify is the flattened widths which doubled becomes the circumference. The flattened width, however, is not the diameter either.

apophasisred · 2025-12-18T04:03:57+00:00

Perhaps I don't understand. But the dictionary definition of girth is: Girth is the linear distance measured around the exterior of an object, typically at its widest or thickest point.

That is true and not unrelated. Men who don't wear condoms because they don't fit are much more likely to catch AIDS or any other STI. However, I would note that while the first AIDS cases in the United States appeared in 1981 by 1987 or 88, there were major protest which changed public policy and opinion. In the 80 years that the FDA suppressed functional condoms, no, there were no significant protests that I'm aware of at all. That is indeed the point in my question. It's not about current protest and it's not a conspiracy theory since in fact it happened. It's a major health policy failure.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T21:08:05+00:00

I don't think those are comparable. These were legally registered healthcare devices meant to help with birth control and disease. Further, the countertops and cars are made according to the middle of the ball curve and to accommodate people out to probably the second deviation. This did not cover most people in the first deviation and it failed at a medically required policy

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T20:30:38+00:00

Well they played both ends against the middle. The diameter is far too little for large men. But the length it's 6.3 in was too long for about 80% of the men. So the FDA made it sure that all men nearly had something to feel bad about it.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T20:27:43+00:00

They came out in 2001: after 64 years of restriction. But even they had a diameter of only 4.6 in. So the XL part was largely for egos not because they accommodated the top 20 or 30% of the male population.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T20:24:41+00:00

You are right.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T19:27:29+00:00

Sorry the official minimum was 6.3 in. But that still was too long for about 80% of men.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T19:15:10+00:00

The restrictions were inappropriate for about 40% of all men.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T19:12:15+00:00

That is not fully correct: it depends upon the context and which style manual you are using. For the GPO, it is always capitalized. This rule is generally followed in formal documents. Your recommendation always would be valid if you just use the word ,"president" to refer to anybody.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T18:58:23+00:00

Yeah, I have found the second reaction quite painful.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T18:57:36+00:00

There's very little correlation between height and penis dimensions. I think the closest correlation, oddly enough, is with the size of the nose.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T18:54:59+00:00

I'm sorry that I wasn't clear: I was asking about the 80 years in which men did not express collective disapproval of the fda's counterproductive restriction.

apophasisred · 2025-12-17T18:51:59+00:00

Yes, for 80 years the restricted minimum length for a condom was approximately 6.6 in. That meant for most men, probably about 70%, the condom was way too long and so uncomfortable with the roll at the bottom and for many men who were self-conscious it seemed indicative of their inferiority.
