Remember guys and gals, it's not body shaming when men are on the receiving end!

"This person conducts themselves with a confidence that usually comes with physical traits typically considered desirable."

That's why I prefer 'big ballsack energy' It's something every male can achieve with enough waiting or the right diet.

Are you implying the term Big Dick Energy is body shaming men?

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 21 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Yes. It equates body types with positive/negative traits. ie. "Big dick energy" implies "small dick = bad"

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I could see how the phrase implies that, however this meme subverts that by saying that dick size doesn't matter as much as your energy does. And the meme literally says that small dick energy is bad, not having a small pp.

Small dick energy is bad but not small dicks? How does that make any sense. Think about it.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 year ago

Bruh the only time I've ever used the term BDE is to imply that the size of your pp doesn't matter with this meme. Im sorry its upset you, but i dont really care. Trans men can have BDE without even having a dick. YOU are the one implying that small dicks are bad, not me.

Saying small dick energy is just a different way of calling someone out for acting insecure it has nothing to do with the size of their dick.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Insecure like someone with a....?

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

Insecurity problem

[–] crystal@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

doesn't matter as much

I think it's analogous to referring to balls the size of wrecking balls or something. I don't know of anyone who thinks bigger physical balls are superior to smaller balls, but the phrase is still common to denote courage. I think big dick energy is not as decoupled from people's biology as big balls, but it's still mostly decoupled in common usage.

Can we shut the fuck up about being sensitive to everything. Just for a day. Sincerely guy with small dick. Its cold out. Always.

[–] flicker@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

The thing about this is, you're saying you have a small dick, but this is big dick energy for real.

Maybe someone needs to come up with a better name for it because it's a very real phenomenon and most of us know exactly what it's referring to.

Sorry that adapting is uncomfortable but no

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works -4 points 1 year ago

Serious small dick energy bro.

[–] irmoz@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

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.

Try raising your speech level above 0 before responding.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bruh you just compared using the term BDE to the N word.

[–] irmoz@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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 help yourself.

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

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

[–] irmoz@reddthat.com 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never said small dick till YOU did lmfao

[–] irmoz@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

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?

[–] Zehzin@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

MFer did you just compare "small dick energy" to the n word 💀

[–] irmoz@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

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

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

spoken like one with little dick energy.
