      In this case it’s not about body shaming but about shaming a means of compensation. Also it’s not really a literal take. “Big dick energy” has nothing do with actual dick size. And being a “Karen” has nothing to with a persons actual name or gender.

      Neither is trashing the climate with pointlessly big vehicles just to compensate for whatever insecurities they have. We need to either tax or regulate these stupid vehicles back to a reasonable and safe size.

        It’s not just big vehicles that do that. For instance I wouldn’t call a supra a big vehicle but when they wake me up at 3 AM because they have to be louder than fire sirens I feel like that is compensating as well.

      But the body on right is so much bigger, and takes up so much wasted space!

      The smaller body on the left is more fuel efficient too.

      Plus, body shaming when you’re ugly and useless like that is okay.

        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.

            Disingenuous to the point of absurdity

                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?

                    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.

              At least I won’t be hearing anymore from you.
