Good meme, but we really ought to end small-penis hatred.

[–] [email protected] 147 points 3 months ago (5 children)

It's not the small penis we hate, it's the loud car.

My most satisfying sexual experience was with a small dude

I begged him for a second date. I think he was self-conscious about it. Dude was marriage material

[–] felykiosa 5 points 3 months ago

I m a small dude thx to give me confidence

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Yes, but we use the small penis as an insult, which is not fair.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't understand nudity options in games. You got average and above average. Few people gonna go with average then.

I hate a lot of things.
Guess i should start body shaming because of that?

No. Only insecure losers bodyshame.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It's like with the "do you punch a Nazi?", even pacifists have limits.

Then again, I think for me it's ok to hit people where it hurts when you want to hurt them--- and penis size is the "alpha males" easy and effective target just like crowd size is a certain assholes weakness.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

Not even remotely comparable. When you punch a Nazi you are only hurting a Nazi.
When you body shame you hurt every single person who has that characteristic.

If everyone started shitting on characteristics you possess you probably wouldn't like it either.
Have some fucking empathy.

It's not about the actual size, it's more like a mindset

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Testicle size and reproductive potency are entirely unrelated to penis size, for all the men out there. And if you only ever have one partner at a time that you want to make babies with, you don’t really need to be a super stud in the testicle department. You just need regular sexual contact with your lady half.

But this shows that even if you do want all the ladies, large testicles don’t matter.

(Aside; people with breeder fetishes who impregnate multiple women are fucking gross and weird. Musk is one such and just.. eew.)

It's not the size that counts, it's how you use it.

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

It’s the compatibility with a partner imo, the match is everything - the technical details are mostly irrelevant once events take place

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

this (the study) is about the crystal balls, not the magic wand.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 3 months ago (1 children)

In primates small testicle size is correlated with how many males a female typically mates with. More males mating with the same female means the male that produces the most sperm has an advantage. So gorillas have tiny balls because every troop only has one silverback male, and chimps have horrifically huge nuts because there’s a lot of competition for mates from other males in the troop.

Interestingly, humans fall roughly in the middle of the scale in terms of ball size!

Yet the head of a human penis is shaped for removing competing semen from a woman's vagina

You don't wanna know what your ancestors got up to

Kinky by nature.

General rule amongst those groups: "If you can't be good, be loud."

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

As someone with a loud car, I can confirm

Those three monkes look like they're singing For the Longest Time

I have been told all through my life I have a voice that carries

😬

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I'm conflicted because I love cars and how they work (including EVs!!!) but also don't entirely love how loud they can be.

I got a GR Corolla which has a little tiny 3 cylinder engine, but it's so loud on cold starts. Luckily I live in the woods, because I would feel so bad cold starting it in a neighborhood.

I'm conflicted because I love my car, but can also appreciate how cars just don't have to be so loud that they give you temporary deafness as they drive by. Unfortunately with internal combustion, louder generally equals better flow in the exhaust which equals more power.

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

Enjoy it! You could be driving another fun car with a completely boring sounding engine (cough FL5 cough) with almost no good sounding exhausts that aren’t just noise.

I can literally hear these monkeys singing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Boy, maga cultists sure are loud AF...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

This makes me sad. I installed a loud as fuck exhaust on my car, but it broke sound limits at the track so I had to get a quieter setup. Mostly I’m sad because of my tiny penis tho.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Gives new meaning to 'speak softly and carry a big stick'.

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

How was the TMI calculated in this study?

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

I can't handle stupid right now.
