    The association from otherwise well meaning people with dick-size and body shaming when it comes to cars is weird/creepy.

        Yup, this. And because old habits tend to die hard. To redesign this without body shaming I am looking for other, non-genital related associations that make suv drivers just as fucking mad

      I have never understood this. And for some its not even a meme. Some people HONESTLY BELIEVE every single person who buys a large car only does so because of their dick.

      It would be a lot stranger if there weren’t such a direct correlation between projecting masculinity and buying large vehicles.

      But there clearly, objectively, openly is.

        You’re mistaking being toxically masculine with having a small dick. It’s not the same thing and you’re actively participating in bodyshaming when you do this. It’s just hurting people for no reason.

          I’ll believe that when you convince me that saying overly proud people have big heads is body shaming.

              So there’s an insult for every kink and a kink for every insult and something can’t be insulting if there’s not a kink for it. Got it.
