'Extra Small' Condoms for 12-Year-Old Boys Go on Sale
Thursday, March 04, 2010
A leading condom manufacturer in Switzerland has created extra-small condoms for boys as young as 12 years old, the U.K.’s Daily Telegraph reported.
The condom, called the Hotshot, was produced after family planning groups and the Swiss AIDS Federation campaigned to have the condoms made following several studies that showed adolescent boys were not using proper protection when engaging in intercourse.
"The result that shocked us concerned young boys who display apparently risky behavior,” Nancy Bodmer, who headed the research, told the newspaper. “They have more of a tendency not to protect themselves. They do not have a very developed sexual knowledge. They do not understand the consequences of what they are doing and leave the young girls to take care of the consequences.”
Bodmer said the results of the study suggest that early prevention makes sense.
A spokeswoman for the company, Lamprecht AG, said the United Kingdom would be a “top priority” if they expanded abroad, especially since the U.K. has one of the highest rates of teen pregnancy in Europe.
A standard condom has a diameter of 2 inches; the Hotshot's is 1.7 inches.

12 year old boys shouldn't even be thinking about sex nevermind having it. How about a lot more proper parenting?

I think it's not the size that matters... It's lack of knowledge and/or responsibility... sad, but true.

Jesus Christ.
LET KIDS BE KIDS!!!!!
They aren't kids for very long, let them enjoy being kids running around with their friends, riding their bikes, playing wii sports, cuddling their stuffed animals.
Stop trying to sexualize them, leave them alone.

Even a 12 year old boy isn't going to buy something marked 'extra small' for pete's sake!

Maybe it's a delicate way to corner the market for Japanese men?
