It's a joke. And it's metaphorical more than anything else. I have no desire to care about the size of anyone's penis. The idea is that they are compensating for something, and those dudes are the ones who actually do care about that shit

In the same vein, things can "suck dick" without it mattering who sucks dick and any value judgments were placed on that in the past. It's an expression.

So you body shame women too or just men? Lol

Weird question. Why not read replies if you're gonna pretend to care?

I read it, but I just don't know how to reply to your mental gymnastics

In the same vein, things can “suck dick” without it mattering who sucks dick and any value judgments were placed on that in the past. It’s an expression.

How is this the same vein as making fun of someone's appearance? You have a choice to suck dick lmao. It feels so stupid to even type this out, that's why I didn't take the bait

So what situations is it acceptable to make fun of how women look if this is so nuanced?

...I never said there was nuance. It's pretty simple. If someone chooses to be a shithead you can use their insecurities against them.
