Insisting that one size doesn’t fit all, MP Tom Aza said 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.”
“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.
Another committee member, Sarah Netalisile, said the size issue was “exposing our younger boys and girls, and all those users of condoms, to the acquiring of HIV and AIDS.”
NTV Uganda’s report said the MPs would push for better condom supplies and bigger sizes.
It is not the first time the penis size issue has been raised to condom manufacturers.
In 2006, the Indian Council of Medical Research found 60% of men in Mumbai had penises at least 2.4 centimeters (one inch) shorter than international condom sizes, and that for 30% of men, the size deficit was five centimeters (two inches).
AIDS in Uganda
AIDS is seen as being resurgent in Uganda after years of decline, with as many as 80,000 people dying of the disease every year.
From a peak of 18 % infected in 1992, Uganda’s “ABC” strategy – Abstinence, Be faithful, Condom – helped slash rates to 6.4% in 2005.
But rates have crept back up to 7.2% in 2012. As many as 1.8 million people in the country now live with HIV, and a million children have been orphaned after their parents died of AIDS. Source the Rappler
