    It does literally refer to penis size. Hiding it behind the word “energy” is just obfuscation. It reminds me of racist people defending the N word by saying, “there’s black people, then there’s Ns. Black people are fine, Ns aren’t.”

    You’re just kicking the can down the road. It’s the exact same idea, phrased differently. You just wanna say “small dick” and get away with it, that’s all.

        Did you just describe what I did in a reductive way, without even attempting to explain your point? Why should I listen to you?

        Try attacking the idea itself: “You’re just kicking the can down the road. It’s the exact same idea, phrased differently.”

            Attack the argument or accept that you’re wrong.

            “Small dick energy” is just a way to say “small dick” without getting called out for it.

              Begging people to debate you about how saying small dick energy is like dropping hard Rs is the most small dick energy thing I can think of, no thanks

                See, you still show no evidence you have any clue what I’m saying, so how can I take you seriously? I never said it is “like droping hard Rs”. Seriously, get up to speed or get lost.

                  Here’s an actual, completely serious input for you: If you want people to take you seriously and actually engage, don’t start by comparing them to outspoken racists. People will prefer to roast you

                    I’m not. I didn’t realise people would be so confused by analogies.

                    I compared the rhetoric. That’s the point of such devices. You don’t have to be a racist to use similar logic to them.

                    This isn’t complicated whatsoever.

                    The guy is hiding behind semantics, so I described another instance of hiding behind semantics. I deliberately used an extreme example so the error was more clear. Basic reductio ad absurdum.

            Ooh, name calling! Based on a willful misinterpretation of what they said, too. A sure sign of a solid argument!

            I compared one instance of belittling offence to another instance of it. Keep up.

            I even added explicit reasoning afterwards in case you got distracted, but you still couldn’t control yourself.

            Maybe try responding to my point itself, instead of the analogy that came with it?

            You’re just kicking the can down the road. It’s the exact same idea, phrased differently.

              Lmao you have such debate lord energy, the meme i shared literally says your pp size doesn’t matter. The fact that you equated BDE with using the N word shows how out of touch with reality you are.

                Yeah, you say dick size doesn’t actually matter, but you’re still talking about dick size. The word “energy” is just an excuse, so you can say “small dick” without being called out.

                    Sure buddy. “Big dick energy” exists in a vacuum and isn’t the counterpart to “small dick energy”.

                    How gullible do you think I am?
