Remember guys and gals, it's not body shaming when men are on the receiving end!

"This person conducts themselves with a confidence that usually comes with physical traits typically considered desirable."

Are you implying the term Big Dick Energy is body shaming men?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Yes. It equates body types with positive/negative traits. ie. "Big dick energy" implies "small dick = bad"

[–] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago (4 children)

Can we shut the fuck up about being sensitive to everything. Just for a day. Sincerely guy with small dick. Its cold out. Always.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The thing about this is, you're saying you have a small dick, but this is big dick energy for real.

Maybe someone needs to come up with a better name for it because it's a very real phenomenon and most of us know exactly what it's referring to.

Confidence ? E.g: "he is very confident !" = "he has big dick energy !"

everything is better with dicks.

Especially girls. My gf has a bigger dick than me and I couldn't be happier, no homo

The term is secure or self-secure.

As in: “it didn’t bother him because he is secure in himself”

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Yes; and more specifically, it’s a quiet confidence.

I think it's analogous to referring to balls the size of wrecking balls or something. I don't know of anyone who thinks bigger physical balls are superior to smaller balls, but the phrase is still common to denote courage. I think big dick energy is not as decoupled from people's biology as big balls, but it's still mostly decoupled in common usage.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I could see how the phrase implies that, however this meme subverts that by saying that dick size doesn't matter as much as your energy does. And the meme literally says that small dick energy is bad, not having a small pp.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Small dick energy is bad but not small dicks? How does that make any sense. Think about it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Saying small dick energy is just a different way of calling someone out for acting insecure it has nothing to do with the size of their dick.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Insecure like someone with a....?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Insecurity problem

Bruh the only time I've ever used the term BDE is to imply that the size of your pp doesn't matter with this meme. Im sorry its upset you, but i dont really care. Trans men can have BDE without even having a dick. YOU are the one implying that small dicks are bad, not me.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (3 children)

Honestly your whole argument is very reminiscent of people in the early 2000s using the word "gay" synonymously with "bad" and insisting it's not only inoffensive to gay people but that anyone who thinks otherwise is the real homophobe.

The whole "big/small dick energy" things is inherently rooted in body shaming for reasons that have already been pointed out. It doesn't matter that you didn't mean it in that way or that you're trying to flip the script by saying your energy doesn't necessarily reflect or corporate to your penis size.

doesn't matter as much

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (2 children)

It does literally refer to penis size. Hiding it behind the word "energy" is just obfuscation. It reminds me of racist people defending the N word by saying, "there's black people, then there's Ns. Black people are fine, Ns aren't."

You're just kicking the can down the road. It's the exact same idea, phrased differently. You just wanna say "small dick" and get away with it, that's all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

MFer did you just compare "small dick energy" to the n word 💀

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Did you just describe what I did in a reductive way, without even attempting to explain your point? Why should I listen to you?

Try attacking the idea itself: "You’re just kicking the can down the road. It’s the exact same idea, phrased differently."

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (2 children)

"That's reductive", said the N-word comparer 💀💀

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Attack the argument or accept that you're wrong.

"Small dick energy" is just a way to say "small dick" without getting called out for it.

Begging people to debate you about how saying small dick energy is like dropping hard Rs is the most small dick energy thing I can think of, no thanks

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (8 children)

See, you still show no evidence you have any clue what I'm saying, so how can I take you seriously? I never said it is "like droping hard Rs". Seriously, get up to speed or get lost.

Ooh, name calling! Based on a willful misinterpretation of what they said, too. A sure sign of a solid argument!
