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

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

        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.

            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.

        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.

      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.

              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?

                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.

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