Trojan condoms
2006-04-16, 5:43 PM #1
Okay my friends and I are on a search. We're desperately looking for the number for the Trojan Condom company.

It all started earlier today, while we were all procrastinating (exams? what exams?) and a debate arous...uh...came u....um, we had a debate. We cannot for the life of us figure out why a condom company would name thier product after an event involving something that penetrated, or snuck inside a city and dozens of men came spilling out attacking the city from the inside. The imagery is a little too much. Especially since that is exactly what you are trying to prevent when using a condom. Even if they're referencing the trojan army, they lost!

You can see how the search for the number became of paramount importance. How can you study for exams with something like that weighing on your mind? or work on your paper? The problem is, we've had people look on boxes and we've searched their website and we can't find a number! we're trying to get a PR person on the phone. Any help you can give, ideas about why or any idea about where we may find the phone number would be much appreciated. Thanks!

to quote how my friend put it while explaining our predicament to a friend was:
"The image of the Trojan Horse penetrating the walls of Troy makes sense, but then the fact that the men came out of the horse and then destroyed the city seems to go against the whole point of using a condom in the first place"

Well, judging by the intellect of your post, you obviously were the result of a broken condom.

Now, is it wrong that before I clicked the thread I thought that this would be about condoms that contained a virus that lay in wait, then strike the uterus unexpectedly?
nope.

This coming from someone who could not put on a condom right, leading to his girlfriend's pregnency.

Who says I can't put a condom on right? Not all pregnancies are accidental, mate. That child was wanted, we tried for a while for it to work right, too.

This coming from a guy who doesn't realize that condoms aren't 100% effective. Nevermind that you don't know the facts of the situation.

Maybe they're called Trojan because it puts up an energetic fight for a little while before going limp.

I'm going to hell.
2006-04-16, 8:11 PM #27
Yeah I've always wondered about the name, too.

Either way, Trojan condoms suck. Durex FTW.

Why are they Trojans?

Because all men want to be [endowed] like a horse.

Originally posted by Wolfy:

A large horse made of roughly-hewn, unsanded and unfinished wood, that is not anatomically correct?

I have a theory:

1.) The horse did, indeed, contain an invading army. These soldiers were not Trojans: they were Greek.

2.) The Greeks poured out of the horse into the city of Troy.

3.) The condom is supposed to be the city of Troy. Troy isn't supposed to be what you are thinking.


On the other hand, the issue is further confused by the fact that Trojan's mascot is a Roman centurion. Because the Troy Homer wrote about was razed in 1290 BC, and the Roman Empire wasn't even founded for another 300 years after that (at the earliest).

The Romans believed that their founder (Romulus) was the descendant of a Trojan survivor, though. I guess.

but the city of troy got decimated, why would the condom want to be named after that

but I just made a connection! It's a wood horse!

...maybe?

bah! I still think Spartan Man would be a better name for a condom

I've been wondering why they were called Trojans ever since I heard about them. The name has NEVER made sense to me.

You aren't supposed to reuse them.

Would you rather have condoms named after a walled city that successfully prevented intruders from entering it? Think about it. That's even worse.

Edit:

No, the Spartan Man is what you're trying to prevent.
