Yeah, 'cause having a small package is just as bad as being a murderer. sadbear Jan 2013 #1
I hope the sarcasm isn't aimed at me. Are there any studies about penis size and anything? UTUSN Jan 2013 #8
No, you're right. We're wasting our time talking about penises. sadbear Jan 2013 #10
I could go with that. n/t UTUSN Jan 2013 #18
And you are a potential rapist? rl6214 Jan 2013 #74
Yep... sadbear Jan 2013 #86
What were they saying in the 70s? morningfog Jan 2013 #2

Yeah, I used to like Corvettes, too. sadbear Jan 2013 #7
I have it on good authority that cars and guns can't be compared. ;-) nt flamin lib Jan 2013 #12
Corvettes don't kill people... sadbear Jan 2013 #16
And you're being a very large dick. Bake Jan 2013 #91
Then compare their respective owners. merrily Jan 2013 #62

And what about good, non-gun crazed men on the sidelines of conversations like this... Silent3 Jan 2013 #65
How is it just like saying gays are frustrated killers? merrily Jan 2013 #5
Uh, it's a rhetorical/propaganda technique of denigrating the opponent without factual argumentation UTUSN Jan 2013 #11
IOW, like any insult that has not been proven? merrily Jan 2013 #19
Look, I cited a movie in the o.p., then another movie in another post, off the top of my head UTUSN Jan 2013 #26
The movie you cited in the OP had nothing to do with gays. merrily Jan 2013 #31
You are playing a really old and well known game: UTUSN Jan 2013 #40
Your O.P was flame bait--and, by your own admission, you knew it when you posted it. merrily Jan 2013 #57
I'm 64, and old enough to verify that anti-gay psycho-babble referenced by the OP. Eleanors38 Jan 2013 #72
I never questioned that gays were maligned in the 1970s. merrily Jan 2013 #73
The OP was clear enough: One's contempt for another Eleanors38 Jan 2013 #75

THANK you VERY VERY much, AGAIN (notice how much and OFTEN I appreciate you UTUSN Jan 2013 #115
So homophobia is like saying men have small penises Lex Jan 2013 #9
I've explained as much as I can in the previous posts. I'm not going to go into tangents. UTUSN Jan 2013 #14
If you knew you were stepping into it, you should have been prepared to explain. merrily Jan 2013 #21
Whoa, I thought I had tied the ribbon in your previous post. This will do it for me. UTUSN Jan 2013 #30
Oh, please. You made a nonsensical statement and, when asked to explain, you couldn't. merrily Jan 2013 #35

Gun owners and gun nuts are not the same thing. merrily Jan 2013 #27
On that last paragraph. Oh, yes, it does. I saw a comedian doing a routine about his pregnant wife. freshwest Jan 2013 #36
The set up to the punchline is sexist, but that's another issue. merrily Jan 2013 #46
Yes, any expression of a woman wanting to be independent was called that. I had one suggest it, freshwest Jan 2013 #53

Lack of masculinity and/or weakness has often been attributed to people who don't own guns. merrily Jan 2013 #28
But would it be tolerated here? pipoman Jan 2013 #47
Who cares what is tolerated here? It's a message board, for pity's sake. merrily Jan 2013 #52

"Looking for Mister Goodbar"? I think you meant "Cruising." Behind the Aegis Jan 2013 #24
The murderer in Goodbar was portrayed as killing from repressed rage over his sexuality. UTUSN Jan 2013 #33
The way I remember (and read) was it was because he thought she was mocking him. Behind the Aegis Jan 2013 #67
Looking for Mister Goodbar... Science Geek Jan 2013 #42
The KILLER was a dude whose motivation was depicted to be rage over HIS repressed sexuality. n/t UTUSN Jan 2013 #44

I don't see that way. merrily Jan 2013 #59
No... "Just Saying" is just like "Trust Me", it's another way to say F.U. TheBlackAdder Jan 2013 #68
I don't see it that way. merrily Jan 2013 #69
Well, that's the way you come off to others. TheBlackAdder Jan 2013 #70

I'd like to see a study, of male owners of multiple guns, say 50 or more guns... Science Geek Jan 2013 #56
50?!? How about 2? EOTE Jan 2013 #83

Gun advertisers disagree with your premise. Pholus Jan 2013 #76
+1000. A very large part of "gun culture" is compensation for feelings of masculine inadequacy. baldguy Jan 2013 #90
Which sadly is effectively and insultingly summarized by the slang... Pholus Jan 2013 #99
Bushmaster equates guns with manliness. dawg Jan 2013 #105
Bushmaster sells guns. Pholus Jan 2013 #110
I agree! It's a pretty flaccid argument at best.... diphthong Jan 2013 #78

While absolutely correct, this isn't the right forum sadly. galileoreloaded Jan 2013 #89
Those posts are insulting to men who actually do have small penises. dawg Jan 2013 #92
Insulting people with incontinence, now? baldguy Jan 2013 #93
I do understand the difference. Apparently you do not. dawg Jan 2013 #94
Also I didn't insult incontinent people. dawg Jan 2013 #95
