Define only men like
Are we talking hobby scope or like alpha extroverted abusively insecure narcissistic misogynists with very small penis... rule

[–] boboliosisjones@feddit.nu 65 points 1 month ago (5 children)

having a small penis doesn't make anyone a bad person, all your other terms are fair and objectively bad, but how do you bot realize you are potentially hurting perfectly decent people with the last one? I know its a widespread practice and that and I am not really mad about it, but it still amazes me how the insult is still used. If someone is an abusive, narcissistic misogynist then that's bad enough, don't gotta go there.

Think about your harmless bros with insecurity issues over this thing that doesn't make them a lesser person.

End rant, again not mad at you just a thought.

I apologize if anything I said appears judgemental or degrading. It was intended as I personally view people that are concerned with size like someone handed a fine instrument that is concerned about the recycling value of the metal and wood. Or, someone that compares movies and songs where they focus on brevity as a primary measure of performance benchmark. I will try to avoid the comment in the future

Yeah you know what this is so much better than my comment.

[–] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

There's nothing wrong with a small penis, but misogynists usually disagree with that so it's a jab to say they have a small penis. I'm not making fun of the penis, I'm making fun of the misogynist who cares so much in a bad way.

Although it does come across like you say, so maybe I should stop.

I think the key is not "small penis", it's "misogynist small penis". You can't decide your penis (and side note, sometimes a below average penis is sooo much better to handle for the othet party than an oversize log that poses so many problems), you can decide to be an asshole though

As a man with a small penis, it's the second.

I think you can answer your own question. Either men will like it and their will be other genders that see the appeal or it’s an assoholic male hobby.

I've met women who like the most assholish of hobbies, like rolling coal and crossfit. I don't think this is a useful definition.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unsupported by the logic at play. Just because some women like it doesn't make it cool

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is there a critical mass of women where it becomes cool?

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Excellent example.

No, the only thing that makes anything cool is being different confidently; Popularity is coolness' diagonal opposite.

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

men will like it and there will be other genders that see the appeal

[–] WhyDoYouPersist@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I think there's truth in it either way. Although I can't think of many things only men like, expanding it to "anything dominated by an overwhelming proportion of men to woman" still works. I think they're more cringe than uncool though.
