Thailand rises to condom challenge

Thailand rises to condom challenge

Senator Mechai Viravaidya is Thailand's undisputed Condom Tsar. He's worked tirelessly to promote their use and many Thais now refer to a condom as a "Mechai." He owns the popular restaurant "Condoms & Cabbages" on Sukhumvit Soi 12 - where diners are given a condom with their bill instead of a mint. If your girlfriend ever finds one in your pocket, it's an excuse worth remembering.

Thai condoms make excellent finger puppets but they're not much use during sex. Even the branded imports are thin, weak and thimble-sized (See Thai lust for farang monster cock). Pity the careless sex-tourist who forgets to bring an adequate supply. A Thai pharmacist would probably advise him to slit open a fertilizer sack.

It seems that farang calls to "supersize me" have finally reached Mr Mechai's ears. He's responded by promoting a new "international" sized condom which will be handed out free to tourists arriving at Bangkok airport during the global AIDS forum in July. Here's the full story from AFP, entitled "Thai tourists to get free condoms."

Tourists travelling to Thailand will be greeted with an "international" size condom along with the traditional smile in July to mark a global AIDS forum in Bangkok, a Thai senator said.

Senator Mechai Viravaidya said larger condoms would be handed out for free at the airport while a choice of sizes would be on offer in some taxis, the main train station and at freeway toll booths throughout the July 11-16 International AIDS Conference.

"There will be two sizes. A larger international condom and a smaller local one," Mechai told AFP, adding "but if a local feels they need an international condom then they will certainly be given one."

"It's just to let people realize we do have a problem with AIDS in the world and condoms are the major way of preventing it," said Mechai.

He said about 350,000 condoms would be handed out, but that if stocks dwindled more would be supplied.

Mechai spearheaded Thailand's first condom awareness campaign in the late 1980s which is credited with dramatically reducing the kingdom's annual rate of new HIV infections.

The $US15m AIDS conference, themed "Access for All", will bring together up to 20,000 delegates including world leaders, scientists, activists and people living with HIV-AIDS.

It was announced this week that the AIDS conference is to be cancelled because most of the World's leaders, including Kofi Annan, are too busy to attend. However, the Thai authorities remain tight-lipped about the fate of our free johnnies.

"supersize me".......i love it !

Jules says:

A recent survey by Durex Condoms revealed that the length of an erect penis can range from four to nine inches, while penis widths can vary from just over one inch to more than two inches. Phew, I am definitely.......

A Durex XXL when laid flat will have a width of 54mm near the base. A Trojan Magnum XL will be similair.

In comparison a Trojan Ultra Fit measures only 48 mm.

Bodyguard are a Thai leader and they claim it is a standard 52mm. Yeah, pull the other one on.

But why oh why do they not make a flavoured Durex XXL for use with oral sex. I end up using food wrap.

New partner asks, "what is that big bulge in your pocket, are you happy to see me?" Answer 'I am Glad"

For those who are not Yanks apparently this is a brand of food wrap!!!!!

Size matters!!!!!!

Iffy says:

Just as a minor point, the AIDS conference isn't going to be cancelled, just the Leaders Meeting (as it's hard to hold one without any Leaders).

Also typical of local environment that a conference with the title "Access for all" is charging the very inclusive price of $1000 per delegate.

wilbur says:

Har! Just another reason to thank my lucky stars for my relatively "modest" proportions. That and I don't have much trouble persuading the ladies to take me in the tight one. "Ham you not beeg too mat!"

A wise man once said, "A man is measured not in inches, but in hours." Maybe also in quarts?

Please note that a mile is nothing but an inch repeated 63,360 times. Wonder how many hours that would be? :)

the big man says:

wee nob.

wilbur says:

Maybe, but can YOU boast to the girls that your tongue is longer than your dick? LOL! Cheers!

Madam Edith says:

Can you still get 'Bodyguard' in Thailand ? I have not seen them for ages.

Hmm, those are for whom, I wonder!

Gimpy1 says:

Did you know that:

The average erect penis is 6" long and that the average depth of a pussy is 8".

Based on an estimate of 15,000,000 women over the age of 18 currently living in Thailand, there would be almost 450 miles of unused pussy.

mr peter says:

Edith

You can of course still get bodyguard see:

Jules says:

Gimpy1 is entirely right that the average dick is only 6" long and the depth of a pussy 8" but these are only averages.

A smaller than average Asian lady with an above average farang can have it bouncing on her cervix in deep deep penetration.

And how about all those farang girls who pay for sex with Thai men? Are they getting a good fit? Love to hear!!!!!

Be a wanker says:

Take it from a guy on the other side.

the "asian sized" condoms do NOT fit all Thai men
