Body shaming is ok when it’s against men I dislike!!

Just noticed that you forgot to censor the usernames. I mean, a post with 70k upvotes borders on being "of public interest" in and of itself, but still... please remove the usernames (reddit and facebook), the facebook profile picture, and the name of the subreddit. I am aware that the original post left the facebook name there, but we need to hold ourselves to higher standards. Feel free to repost after.

Edit: You can keep the names of Tate/Thunberg.

Andrew Tates a dumb twat but dick shaming is cringe.

Insulting a guy like him is fine, but using the phrases like that shows that you believe in the the stereotypes that, "small pp is less masculine or inferior or the guy is a loser because of it", also indirectly shames other people suffering due to such insults.

I don't get it; he's wearing swim briefs so how can anyone determine the size of it? The difference in size between when it's flaccid, and when it's in a state where the word "pole" makes sense, varies wildly from man to man (some are "growers" and some are "showers"), so if her point is that there isn't a large bulge, that proves nothing (except possibly ignorance of how male anatomy works, and by extension possibly something about Thunberg's sexuality, but I won't go there).

That said, if anyone, man or woman (and this actually does seem to be something that is mostly done by men) uses their car(s) to make some kind of point about themself, I think that legitimately raises certain questions about the quality of their personality, but not necessarily their physique.

Whenever there's a pedo or rapist or whatever in the news, people also love judging their appearance and say shit like "He looks exactly like you'd think a pedophile looks". No, he doesn't, because pedophiles don't have a distinct look. All you did is insult anyone who looks similar but isn't a pedophile.

Yes, that is how they think.

This kind of hypocrisy is very common with liberals nowadays. Do as I say, not as I do.

There's also a lot of borderline homophobic comments with a lot of people they dislike. Comments such as "dick rider", "suck a dick", etc. You know the deal. A lot of that indirectly suggests being gay is bad. That doing gay things is bad.

As long as liberals say it to people they dislike, anything goes. But at the same time they cry about anything mean others say about groups they cherish, they call for cancellation and deplatforming.

This kind of behavior is really annoying. Either anything goes or we watch what we say. I don't even care that they do it, I'm just mostly annoyed by the hypocrisy. That they can't be consistent. The highroading.

Btw Andrew Tate is a moron, just wanna make that clear. Don't mind at all people laughing at him. But they could, if they wanted to, just laugh at what he says. There's enough dumb shit he says that's easily mockable.

fuck him, but this’s photoshopped

Some comments here are discouraging. Many of them receive community disapproval, which is a good start. Still, I want to make it clear that I take this issue very seriously:

This isn't misandry technically but still, body shaming publicly is wrong. I hate that guy and I honestly don't care how one insults him. But the issue here is that she isn't just insulting him, but indirectly everyone who's not so gifted down there.

Tate deserves the hate. I dislike the body shaming but I hold no sympathy for him whatsoever.

SnooBeans9101 · 2024-08-10T11:32:48+00:00

Ima let this one slide, this twat deserves what hate he gets imo.

GNSGNY · 2024-08-10T13:47:31+00:00

tate deserves it. he's the kinda person who'd do it to others.

2ndchancetodothis · 2024-08-10T09:07:59+00:00

It might not be misandry, it could just be body shaming in general

PurpleBoltRevived · 2024-08-10T09:47:52+00:00

He's just Ken, everywhere else Top G 'd be ten.

I'm gonna confess here, knowing I'll probably get downvoted (but before you do, please read the whole comment), and say that I admittedly actually do, albeit very rarely, use this as an insult.

For the vast majority of cases, I do agree that it's an insufferable insult that's wrong on so many levels. Yet, to me, there's these rare few instances where it seems deliciously appropriate, specifically when the guy is clearly: - blatantly misogynistic/otherwise a top-tier asshole, - that would likely use such an insult himself, and - seems to be projecting their own insecurity.

Usually, after the interaction (when the guy I've insulted is no longer there) I'll make a point out of clarifying to any spectators that I don't actually believe the bullshit I just spouted, but did it as an exception specifically to spite said asshole. This is also the reason I tend to not use this insult on the internet; because making that clarification is usually equally visible to the one I'd've just insulted and thus defeats the point (by exposing my own, admittedly, hypocrisy on the matter).

Anyway, in other words, I deeply dislike it when it's so often used against someone who, say, merely has a nice car, or something like that (or equivalently, the "midlife crisis" insult). In that case, it always just seems to me like the person saying it is just being baselessly and needlessly judgmental and likely projecting their own insecurities (say, envy).

But I'll also admit that this post is making me reconsider my stance (that it's sometimes, but very rarely okay to use this insult), because: - as many others have pointed out, it just perpetuates this admittedly stupid penis-manhood equivalence, and the nuance I personally utilise is not apparent to others, and - I don't think this has been mentioned by others, but I'm thinking it's actually also misogynistic in certain contexts in that, if the guy has an SO, it also casts judgement on her for (by extended judgmental logic) being a gold-digger, or whatever similar kind of "not with him because you like him" sentiment.

So yeah. I personally think someone like Tate specifically deserves it; he's such a huge, misogynistic asshole and likely to really get hit in the feels by something like it. Yet, I think I'm gonna stop using it (and endorsing it), because of the "collateral damage." It's just as fun anyway to attack the shit they actually say, or their personality directly.
