We’ve lost count of the times we’ve seen guys buying Magnum condoms during their Vegas visit. It seems to be a time-honored Sin City ritual.<\/p>\n

We get it guys, you’re huge. But here’s the thing. You’re also big dopes.<\/p>\n

\"You're<\/a>
You’re in for a rude awakening.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Perhaps not surprisingly, Magnum condoms are a marketing ploy. Trust us, Las Vegas knows a thing or two about marketing ploys.<\/p>\n

Here’s the skinny. A box of 12 regular Trojan condoms sells for about $6. A box of Magnums goes for about $8. That’s a hefty mark-up, especially when you consider they’re virtually the same product.<\/p>\n

See, regular Trojan and the Magnum are each two inches wide at the base. A regular Trojan condom is 7.8 inches long, as opposed to 8.12 inches for the Magnum. That’s a mere 0.32-inch difference.<\/p>\n

The only real difference between regular and Magnums is the width of the shaft end, and it’s not much of a difference at all.<\/p>\n

Regular Trojans are two inches wide and Magnums are 2.5 inches. Given that the length and base widths are virtually the same, that difference really only amounts to Magnums having a strange shape, not any real accommodation for a guy’s perceived awesomeness.<\/p>\n

\"By<\/a>
By the way, real men don’t litter.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Fun fact: Trojan has never advertised Magnums, because it doesn’t need to. Guys are swift like that.<\/p>\n

So, save your self some bucks and skip the ego trip during your next trip to Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
