It's just their knees, it's all g.

Both sexes can have or lack tits. So the first one is okay, the second one is sexist.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Who said anything about sex? I’d rather read an essay comparing these:

Just keep these fellas out of it:

Blue footed booby bird

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

They’ll eat all the nuts for sure!

In the same way people of all genders can have tits, so can people of all genders have nuts, so if that's your reasoning, either both are sexist, or neither are.

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

If you read my comment carefully you will notice that I was talking about Sex, not Gender.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

ovaries are just nuts in the inside

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I Snickers at this comment.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Colloquial "sexism" is heavily based on gender, so if you want to be precise you should probably use another phrase entirely

[–] ShareMySims 4 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

And if you knew anything about either, you'd know that both are a spectrum, so your argument is still invalid

Just say it's ass, then you're good. Unless that's assogynist

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 days ago (3 children)

pick something neutral - that's the shit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Hey everybody poops...except for Kim Jung Un, so maybe don't use that one on holiday in North Korea...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

No no, the neutral ground is the taint.

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

Not to be confused with "shit"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

This post is the clap.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I used to say 'the bomb' until I thought about it a bit. Am I really comparing your slick dance move to nuclear annihilation? How does that work out?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Is it da bomb bc it's so good that it blew people away, or so bad that it bombed?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

The lap dance was a bomb, I just exploded in my pants

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

To be fair the vast majority of bombs aren't nuclear.

I’m pretty sure that everyone likes boobs, and nuts are just not awesome in any way. If someone’s using nuts as a superlative thing, their priorities are definitely askew.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Hard disagree. Nuts are awesome. They're soft, and they're fun to play with, and they're also a fantastic emergency stop button in a fight

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Um, are they supposed to be soft? I might need to see my doctor.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The testes themselves aren't soft ime, but if we're talking about the overall (scrotum + testes), then I would say it's pretty soft.

Though I'm going to take this moment to soapbox about the importance of regular testicular self examinations: https://www.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-information-and-support/testicular-cancer/how-to-check

The key thing is checking regularly enough that you know what's normal for you, and thus can see a doctor if there are any unexpected changes in shape or texture. (Apologies for lecturing in reply to what was probably a joke)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

My doctor has been extolling this (correct) perspective lately and you are excellent for supporting it.

But because the original post was a joke, I have to share: I've never had a professional testicular examination before. I'm in my late thirties now and recently changed doctors due to moving. My new doctor, the first time I saw her, offered diagnostic testicular palpation. I declined, as I had no cause for concern, then when I got home told my wife how surprised I was at the suggestion. (Not offended or anything, just caught off guard.)

My wife, whom you might have guessed is a woman, was not sympathetic to my surprise, as she'd had genital inspections throughout her life.

I normally try to make the last line of a post like this pithy and humorous, but three other conversations I have going on in the background have robbed me of any joy as I typed this (if you knew me you probably would observe the change in tone between paragraphs), so I will merely present this as factual.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Late thirties?

Suprised by a doctor offering to fondle your balls?

... Might not be long before they insist on calling Doctor Proctor in for a... mildly invasive exam.

You can also grab twist em upside down and squeeze them into a wee little fly face to thrill all your future partners.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Bop em! Twist em! Pull em!

I didn't like your comment and I didn't like posting this response, but commenting this seemed necessary.

[–] ShareMySims 4 points 5 days ago

At least your reply gave this one person a good chuckle, so you have that going for it lol

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 days ago

Dude that's nuts

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That's such a straight male thing to say

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

My lesbian friends would disagree.

[–] ignoble_stigmas 7 points 5 days ago

I agree, and moreover, no one is allergic to boobs, but people are dying from nuts allergies!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

They look like a mountain range covered in cheap shampoo and burnt trees.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Ok but that scrote skin is definitely pretty great.

[–] Ookami38 5 points 5 days ago

That's nuts, my friend.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

This thread is the cloaca.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

This post is the reproductive and/or maternity organs.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

It's the duck's guts

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago
