    Have had “blue balls” before it’s painful but never enough to make it someone else’s problem.

    I’ve deleted a bunch more replies because it’s too frustrating to not be able to have the conversation about boundaries and red flags without people first making sure everyone knows blue balls are real (no one said otherwise) and highlight how uncomfortable and painful they can be (again, no one said otherwise) when both are FUCKING IRRELEVANT. It’s just another example of those who have a penis making it all, or at least first and foremost, about them.
    It isn’t about the person with the balls, THAT’S LITERALLY THE POINT.

    I mean, yeah it’s a real thing, and it’s really not comfortable, but don’t do what you don’t want to do. If he can’t accept boundaries, that’s a 🚩

      Nowhere did it say it isn’t real, please keep the focus where it belongs.

      Edit: I’ve deleted that comment because I realised it’s exactly the manipulation the tweet is about and it’s derailing the conversation.
