    Anyone else find the “haha tiny penis” thing to be cringe?

    Tesla owners in a convey is obviously a huge gathering of idiots.

    But I think it’d be cool if we stopped employing body shaming men’s genitals as a way to make attacks on people’s character.

    Body shaming just ain’t cool. Find something of actual sustenance to attack, like “ah man the missing finger brigade showed up” or “the spontaneous combustion convoy just rolled into town”

        I mean body shaming also unintentionally targets non-nazis too. In fact they get the worst of it; not only people make fun of a physical problem tgaty they have but they also get associated with Nazis through this problem

      I don’t find it cringe, no. It’s pretty conventionally funny because penis size is so often a big deal to small people. When I say “small people” in this context, that has nothing to do with penis size.

      Anyone who is so sensitive about their penis size that they are offended by this may need to reassess their priorities, or find a better echo chamber than Lemmy.

      For a lot of people Trucks are tied to masculinity so the attack has to be against that.

      Tiny Penis fits best!

      That said if we were in Ancient Rome we would proclaim “Oh no, the big dick brigade is here” so just fit what you want there.

        Thats the point, perpetuating the concept that penis size is a representation of who you are is gross.

          Within the confines of making fun of toxic masculinity could you give a better more fitting joke?

          There is a reason “tiny penis” has stuck around

          My original reply attempted to go for “T Levels” or something along those lines…

          However, “Tiny Penis” is the most fitting

          On the “T Level” side of things, a person concerned about “T Levels” due to some chud influencer could very likely shrink their penis with supplements

        There are more abstract indicators of masculinity though. I say that and then can’t think of anything as obvious and likely to offend them lol
