(+) Yeah! (+)

No, but racial slurs are much more to the point and rarely need a paragraph to distinguish the intent. Toxic masculinity however is a much more complicated subject, and sometimes just hitting someone where it hurts is much easier than launching into an intellectual diatribe when someone is just gonna ignore it.

Let us not equate the two either. Racism has caused far more harm than penis insecurity (I am not disputing that penis insecurity doesn't harm people) but the two aren't even remotely the same in levels of denigration.

The fact that we can distinguish a nuance between "small dick energy" and "you have a small dick" is not the same as just straight up calling someone a slur when putting them down.

I also don't think I personally ever specified men in this.

Fair. Still doesn't change that Twitter is a shithole and you're expecting a place that promotes snappy clapbacks to avoid the low hanging fruit.

If you want to call it body shaming and do without it, cool, but getting this hung up over what was a targeted attack at a manchild's masculinity versus his outright bragging of contributing to global warming in sheer spite is ridiculous.

whats "fat and ugly energy"

It's not being fat and ugly, it's when you're fat and ugly and insecure about it.

It's making fun of men who try to attract attention using big, expensive purchases.

There's no way to actually know their actual penis size. That's part of the joke and why your other comparisons aren't working.

yet, people like lizzo aren't allowed to love their bodies either, so what is it?

The comparisons made earlier to race or being fat and ugly.

All she can do is try to shame him, and rage while he laughs at her while enjoying his wealth.

It could be. But you could also jam a square block into a circular hole. You know better than that. It doesn't hold up the same.

People are really siding with Andrew Tate on this. Seriously?

Never liked Greta to begin with and her bullshit outrage gimmick.

There was a lot of Gamers who became fans of Alligators when Women's Rights became a thing around video games, so they became reactionary Men's Rights Activists. Some of them went even farther and started to champion "White Rights" and stuff like that too, no matter how much of that is alarmist, reactionary and 'slippery slope'.

Having a small penis is only going to be a concern for intimate settings. 99.9% people won't (or shouldn't) know.

It looks like he is really enjoying his wealth, constantly taking to Twitter to seek approval on it from incels in his 'university'

What a hilariously unhinged leap of logic there.

Everyone must be uncomfortable with themselves.

"Because its wet" is a good argument for why you dont want to eat a potato chip, but a bad one for why you dont want to pick up the paper towel.

See, arguments have times and places, no one here is arguing it's okay to be racist, or would use that argument for being racist. It doesnt fit there. It does fit with what others are saying. Little dick energy is shorthand for saying they're overcompensating. See how one is easier to read for the dumb dumbs on twitter and one might be outside their vocabulary?

That's why we use the term (I mean, I don't but I understand it).

The funny thing is it's still overall men who care the most about the size of their own dick. All of those snake oil products about increasing penis size is all targeted towards men instead of unsatisfied wives.

So yeah it's no wonder dick energy is a thing.

She walked into that one, she should just quit now and take the L.

You know damn well where it is, and you're not getting any more consideration for your bullshit of changing the subject when you can't answer for why no one gives a fuck about the nuances of body shaming the same as racism on a platform with a 280 character post limit.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Fuck, he's gone into micro dick energy territory

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


I do really like that he's been so caught on this he's been retweeting people that support him for like 3 hours and this is his third response tweet.

I understand there are people here upset about the terminology, but like, if this isn't small dick energy, nothing is.

Tate just used her own stupidity against her, savagely at that but she did it to herself with a poor come back.

Does he realize how weak he is making himself look right now? Just walk away

I mean, about a third of it was about Masculinity and fragile male egos.

The 2/3 that wasn't is still a lot of dicks.

What part of him picking a fight with a teenager are you not understanding?

She is a legal adult at 19 years old, and if she is a child to you then she should know better to not get into an argument with an adult man.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Shut the fuck up.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I did not. I never made that argument. I pointed out that you are reaching. You are bringing up a whole different subject. I pointed out efficiency, and the (lack of) intelligence a lot of people on twitter have.

You are making an argument that does not fit the situation.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


And once again, shut the fuck up.
