He had a Peter so small she had to get a pair of Tweezers and a Magnifying glass just to see his junk.

(44,130 posts)Wish you'd drop this, we are better than this.
Also to give you some food for thought: I don't trust women who attack exes who dumped them by saying the exes' penis was small.
First it is in poor taste thing to talk about genitals of an ex, and it says a lot about her character that she would do that.
and second if a women is feeling vindictive agains an ex who dumped her, she'll say anything to get back at him, true or not.
Yeah vindictive men do this too to women who've dumped them as well, I just didn't what to deal with writing he/she. Male version is 'her vagina is loose.' I just assume a mad person who got dumped is lying when they say vile stuff like that.

(2,375 posts)I'll have to disagree with the 'we are better than this' portion of your sentence --- we most certainly are not better than this.
Gun owners -- including gun owning Democrats -- listen to this rubbish all day every day.
So no. We are most certainly NOT better than this. It's who we are.

It should stop. Especially here.

(44,130 posts)So many more important characteristics make a good man: honesty, integrity, keeping your promises, respecting women as equals, the list goes on and on.
These cultural references, these 'jokes', etcetera say to them that your main/only your as a man is your penis.
I am on a men's fitness board that has a subforum on sexual health.
I have read posts from young guys who are afraid to get into a loving relationship because of size anxiety.
I have read posts from young men who are in relationships who are psychologically impotent because they confused pornography w reality.
They judge themselves against male porn stars, not understanding that men that size represent less than 5% of the male population.
They heAr this shit in popular culture and they internalize it. I'll repeat what I said before, we are better than this. Has no place on a message board for liberals and progressives.

(44,130 posts)Media tells young women they must have 'perfect bodies', leads to lots of damage psychologically and physically damaging 'dieting' etc.
Media tells young men they must have 'perfect muscular bodies', leads to lots of psychological damage and physically damaging things like over dieting and steroid abuse.

(82,383 posts)we don't know that she is vindictive. Probably not, since the 70s were 40 years ago.
And we know about the men in locker rooms.

(44,130 posts)Show-ers: flaccid and erect dimensions are pretty much the same
Grow-ers: flaccid dimensions and erect dimensions are radically different. With extreme growers, flaccid size can triple or more when erect.
So locker room 'judgements' can be way off the mark.
As to vindictive ex-es, I have one friend who I know, who has "pornsized endowment." Dumped girlfriend, she screamed in a public place he had a "tiny penis"
He believed it!
Later they got back together. She admitted it was vindictive anger that made her say that, because she knew that was a very effective way to hurt him. They got married and are doing great.
As to Trump's ex, even if she is 'truthful' I don't give a rat's ass about the size of Trump's penis.
It is as irrelevant to me as your shoe size is irrelevant to me.
And yes this kind of shit can be damaging to young men in the same way body shaming is to young women. I do not know why liberals would want to say shit like this.

(10,926 posts)You might want to watch your inbox. You're probably going to get inundated by requests for you to appear on television. Political science professors are about to come calling, and in fact if be willing to bet that you're going to get some offers for adjunct faculty positions.
I mean, you met someone who claims that Donald Trump has a small penis. Why are you even posting that on DU? That information is worth untold millions, and in fact it should be transcribed, notarized, placed in a vault, and insured. And not for nothing, but this is the kind of opposition research that the Clinton campaign is desperate to conduct.
Someone told you Trump has a small penis. Man, the weight of that information must be an awful burden. Go with God.
