Man With Small Penis Worried Obama Will Take Away His Right To Overcompensate

It wasn’t long after the string of recent massacres that Eddie Johlen started to worry about himself. In fact, many Americans were feeling the same way. This fear for some is all-encompassing and for many it takes over their every thought.



You see, Eddie has a medical condition that requires the use of semi-automatic weapons with maximum capacity magazines that fire as fast as a finger can pull the trigger to inflict the most amount of damage possible. He needs this weapon to feel strong and secure and solid on his feet. He needs it to quench the thought of impending intrusions, uprisings of vampires, and the zombie apocalypse. He also needs it because he has an incredibly small penis and needs it to feel strong and worthy of a woman’s love.

Recently, President Obama has been looking at solutions to end high body-count massacres, and diminish other acts of gun violence. Eddie however feels that this is a direct attack against him and his medical condition. He told Free Wood Post, “That there president has no right to take away my right to show others that I can truly be a man by holding a piece of weaponry. It’s all I got. I need it. I have a doctor’s note and everything. My psychologist even told me that it helps with my paranoid personality disorder and delusions of grandeur. It’s a medical necessity. I thought the president cared about the health care of Americans, now this just proves he is a socialist commie marxist buddhist muslim hindu anti-American nazi. There’s a reason they call it a Bushmaster, because it helps you master getting bush. Without it, I’m just a man with a small willy.”

Even Bushmaster advertises that they offer their consumers a “man card” with every purchase. They have a partnership with the American Medical Association offering their services to those in need of overcompensation.

It’s apparent that Mr. Johlen will not give up his fight against his manhood. When told that he could still have a gun even if gun and ammunition reform were to pass as long as he showed he was mentally capable, passed a background check, and showed responsibility he replied, “It’s just not the same. If I can’t own the biggest and baddest out there I’m not going to be able to overcompensate to the best of my ability. I’d have to resort to just driving monster trucks with hanging balls off the back, and that’s just not good enough.”

If a woman has a problem with a small penis she can always go find one bigger.

I am sure those men on DU with small penises will be offended but such is life, you got to break a few penises if you want to make omelettes.

women tend to shoot smaller caliber firearms (.38 revolvers, .22 pocket/purse, derringers, 9mm, etc) and drive small cute cars to undercompensate for large gaping vaginas... that shit would cause WWIII here on DU. Given most of the comments on this thread ths far, I'd also say DU has quite the double standard. I'm pretty sure the average gun owner's dong is just that; average. Most men have average penises, that's just how statistics happens work out.

It's unfortunate that people complain about sexism by blaming others who are equally unhappy about sexism, instead of directly challenging the posters of sexism.

A more efficient approach would be to respond to the OP by asking them to self-delete the sexist post, not passively-aggressively blame this on feminists, who had nothing to do with this OP.

23. "Compensation" armchair psychology usually comes across as bunk.
Thu Jan 17, 2013, 08:32 AM
Jan 2013

Usually, it's as simple as being very selective who is "analyzed" for signs of compensation. One could claim that any flashy, aggressive, or non-mainstream action by any man is a form of compensation. However, partisan logic is applied to determine which items to apply the small penis theory to. Hence, you won't see many posters on DU claiming that owning a Prius or a Tesla Volt is a form of male compensation.

As for the sexism, I agree there. Holy hell, if someone posted a comment suggesting that women who owned a particular item had huge vaginas and that having a huge vagina makes a woman unworthy of love or sexual attention, people would be screaming bloody murder.

engage in jokes about guns and penis size.

BUT the fact is that there are many men out there who DO use guns to prove something about their manhood. Not all of them, of course, but many. Guns are an area where men do this. Women really don't. I am sure there are things we do that we think prove our femininity, but I can't come up with any corelate to men and guns.

Even Bushmaster recognizes this and awards that "real man" card to their purchasers. I find THAT offensive. Much more than jokes that take that attitude to its logical conclusion. Advertisements for guns center around men's men going on missions and proving their dominance. They all imply that guns are for the man's man and if you don't get that, you aren't a man's man.

If I were a man those ads and that attitude are where I would direct most of my outrage over misandry. It is the gun companies and the gun owners themselves who are suggesting that guns make one "more of a man."

Edited: downthread the "man cards" are pictured. Notice how it says that the purchase of the gun saves the man from "complete humiliation." I would really think that would be a LOT more offensive to men than a joke that plays off on that ridiculous attitude.

whose logic hinges on long-discredited Freudian bullshit, in which the only two motives in life are sex and death, and assumptions about human nature which derive from those alleged natural instincts/drives/whatever.

I'm not sure if I find it offensive, so much as I find it predictable among older feminists and rural, uneducated ones, and thus, I can't be bothered to check in, most of the time.

It's a kind of argument that's been done, over and over. Not exactly what I'd call bold or provocative, lol.

This particular one was a bit over-the-top, and since you so bravely pointed out the low-down man-hating sexism here, I applaud you, and wanted to add my own thoughts. Cheers.

There are people with small penises, and they endure a lot of taunting as it is. They don't need to be equated with gun nuts. In fact, I doubt that most of the people opposed to gun control have small penises. I don't think that the two things are related at all.

This OP is similar to OPs that mock Republicans by speculating that they are gay. In both instances we end up ridiculing people by equating them with something bad.

Let's make fun of gun nuts for being gun nuts.
