BERIGAN Posted November 8, 2004 Report Posted November 8, 2004 Ananova: German penises 'too small for EU condoms' Germany has demanded a rethink on EU guidelines on condom size after finding its average penis did not measure up. Doctors around Essen were ordered by the government's health department to check out the average size suggested by Brussels. They reported the EU has overestimated the size of the average penis by almost 20% and insist other countries will discover the same. Urologist Gunther Hagler, head of the team compiling the research, said: "By checking hundreds of patients we found German penises were too small for standard EU condoms. "On average they were 14.48 cms long and 3.95 cms wide. That makes them much smaller than the EU standard condom size of 17 cms in length and 5.6 cms in width." He denied the German man was any smaller than the rest of Europe, adding: "We think the EU has got its sums wrong, and if other countries were to check out their men's assets they would find the EU has made a mistake in its calculations. "There should be a rethink and the EU statisticians should check their figures again. After all, they have also ruled EU standard condoms should be able to hold 18 litres of fluid without breaking, which also seems a bit excessive." http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_358876.html Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted November 9, 2004 Report Posted November 9, 2004 First I wonder if the name deus62 ia code for something. Next, an amusing story. .About 10 years ago my great wife Ann accompanied me on a sales trip to the "deep" south side of Chicago. She mentioned we needed condoms, since we were "off the pill". She noticed an Osco across the street and said, after looking around the neighborhood, "But I don't think they will have your size". Quote
Shrdlu Posted November 9, 2004 Report Posted November 9, 2004 Well, I always knew that the E.U. was a lot of devilish nonsense, but this really takes the cake! That there would be E.U. regulations about something like this is so idiotic that it's probably true, and not a put-on. The famous English writer Malcolm Muggeridge resigned as Editor of Punch magazine because he found that the real world was far more ridiculous than any satirical article that they could come up with. He is no longer with us, but would have added this to his list of reasons, I'm sure. Quote
