Condoms 'too small' for Uganda men, MPs say

Condoms 'too small' for Uganda men, MPs say

Ugandan MPs have been inundated with complaints that many condoms on sale in the east African nation are too small, warning the problem is a blow to the fight against AIDS.

Insisting that one size doesn't fit all, MP Tom Aza of Uganda's Parliamentary Committee for HIV/AIDS said a recent tour of areas worst hit by the virus revealed that some men "have bigger sexual organs and therefore should be considered for bigger condoms."

"When it comes to action, when they're having sexual activity, of course with the pressure, it bursts," he told NTV Uganda.

"Some youth are complaining that the condoms they are being given, some of them are too short, their organs can't fit in them," MP Merard Bitekyerezo also told the channel.
