    Not sure if you’re serious but i will answer as if you were.

    A common attack against people with large trucks is that they have a large truck to compensate having a small penis. This implies having a small penis is bad/unacceptable. This is obvious body shaming but also contributes to toxic masculinity.
    Both of these are unacceptable.

    There are many alternative ways to talk shit without playing into these kinds of comments and TBH, the compensation comments have been used so much and are so obviously baseless that they don’t hit very hard, IMO.

      well, i didn’t actually say that, and i’m not responsible for others filling in the blanks with their own negative thoughts. as you can see, several others actually managed to conclude something different.

      don’t blame the Rorschach test because you see something you don’t like.

            It was implicit. If you can’t deal with being called out on your rhetoric, perhaps you shouldn’t use it.

            Body shaming is dumb and so is owning such a huge truck.

              you’re projecting your own insecurities onto me and making yourself angry over something you imagined. I a not to blame for things your imagination does.

              work out your problems with a professional, not by attacking random internet strangers.

                What percentage of people do you think would believe your current line of reasoning?

                  There are the facts, whether you like it or not. And I am not responsible for what other people believe.

                    The facts? What are you referring to? I am simply asking a question about percentages. Are you imagining that my question was somehow related to an earlier post?

                This is hilarious to read, my guy.

                Listen, you said what you said. Own up to it and learn, or don’t and move on. But you really don’t have to sit there and dig yourself even more into the shit. You sound silly.

                  What sounds silly is people insisting I said something other than I did when my comments are right there for anyone to see.

        Blocked. User has nothing useful to contribute and will argue in bad faith when called out.
