Durex might be really overly optimistic or there is this guanxi with being an Internet addict (does not bode well for me?!).

Sorry for being a bit simplistic here, otherwise why are people in the south shorter, have “other” shortcomings (no word play intended) compared to their brothers in the north?

Men bouncing check of love in Dongguan
A quarter of the male population in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, is suffering from erectile dysfunction, a polite way of saying they are impotent, coming up short, or disappointing Miss Daisy. According to a recent survey, more than 25% of male residents in the prosperous Pearl River Delta city are not rising to the occasion.
Many of the men are so ashamed of their ejectile dysfunction they only seek medical advice after being forced to do so by their sex-deprived wives, who complain of zero copulation growth.
