I think when people say that, it means they think a man is acting in a particular way because he feels Inadequate in someway. It's a metaphor… This. Personally, I think "small dick syndrome" is catchier than "overcompensation for inadequacy"...but it's not usually something I attribute to a person unless he's a shitty driver (regardless of vehicle size). It's basically my go-to road rage insult, and I'm more than willing to own it and any perceived juvenile-ness as a result.

So what do you consider a "good" insult to hurl? You know, when you are really passionate about a topic and feel strongly and a man is acting in a way or saying something that really angers you and you want to yell an insult at them?
"that's an ugly cardigan you have on"? "that color really doesn't suit you"?
Nope, I'm sticking with the small/shrivelled/limp dick ones.
I'm curious what body part on a female you pick to insult? Your boobs are flabby? You labia hangs low? Slight turn from the original topic: I read recently that the children's song 'do your ears hang low' was probably originally an army marching cadence from the Civil War that sang 'do your balls hang low.'

No, execute as in "to perform." I thought it was classier than to say "get off."

Personally, I think it is an immature insult also a bit on the trashy side. I also despise when men say "must have her period" if a woman isn't being all sunshine and roses. Another one is that woman with big boobs are fake and/or whores.

Or a string of cuss words to make a sailor blush. But again, it's a road rage thing for me, so I'm usually too annoyed to spend time coming up with a female-equivalent insult.

Women can also suffer from small dick syndrome. It's not necessarily whether they have one or not, it's that they are compensating for something and making themselves bigger or more powerful than they actually are. I really don't see the problem with calling this little dick syndrome. Just another thing for people to find outrage where there is none.

Guilty, and proud of it. It's an insult it doesn't have to be true. In general men think the bigger the penis is the more manly they are, thus it's the ultimate insult to say they have a small one. Men who have to do extreme things (e.g. kill a lion with a bow and arrow) in an effort to prove what great/manly/sexy/heroic guys they are, are usually just wankers, and compensating for inadequate personalities and other defects. Saying they have small dicks and are trying to compensate for that in other ways is meant to belittle them. I'm going to keep using it, because people know exactly what is meant by it...and it has very little to do with their actual penis size...as I think most astute people already know. Funnily enough I have just been watching Look North, a local news programme and they showed pictures of some eejit who was photo'd cycling naked through the Chatsworth estate. One of the reporters commented that there was no need for a thermometer to confirm that it had been a cold day. The other reporters couldn't finish the piece for laughing.

I can't help but feel when you are driving a vehicle like this that you are compensating for something: I generally don't think that body parts should be used as insults but when a person hangs balls off their truck they sort of invite it, don't they?

My husband doesn't hunt. But he does have a big truck. Now, I picked out the truck for his birthday present last year. It was a complete surprise to him. Before that he either drove a Camry or the minivan. I guess his big truck means that his penis shrunk the day he turned 49? Imagine that surprise in the shower - to go your whole life driving some foreign sedan, having a normal penis and then, BOOM! step into a domestic truck and your dick shrinks! LOL I think you are being a bit ridiculous, just to be ridiculous. Although I don't subscribe to the dumb blonde analogy, you can't help but wonder why a guy needs certain "toys" or "objects" to make himself feel superior to others. I'm willing to bet that if we studied blondes, we'd find no correlation to hair color, boob size and intelligence, but I'd be willing to bet a TON that if we studied guys who had to certain "Toys" or attitudes about those toys, you'd find some hint of inferiority in there somewhere.
My husband has a big truck, too. It's a diesel so it's also loud. He doesn't drive it like it's an extension of himself. He doesn't decorate it like he's trying to prove a point. I'm willing to bet with some of the guys who do, it has nothing to do with the ACTUAL size of his dick, but how he thinks people perceive him.

Seems like the stretching part of the article (to get the "STRETCHED LENGTH" data) would be ... . iffy? Risky? Difficult to ensure a constant 'stretch force' across the subjects for the data to be uniformly gathered? Did a machine do the stretching, applying the same measure of force to the test subjects? If so, how brave were those test subjects, to let a machine do that to them, eh?

I've read about five different posts on this board, in the past week or so, where women have said that men had small dicks. Why would you say that? Do you have first-hand knowledge of these penis sizes? It seems like a junior high insult and really makes me think the poster just cannot find a logical argument to share. I remember when it wasn't uncommon for people to make jokes about dumb blondes. And blonde IQs were apparently inversely proportional to bra size. The bigger the cup, the dumber the blonde. I'm glad a lot of that has gone the wayside. I think we need to give the penis references a break too. I agree with you on this topic and another recent thread (where I think I liked all of your posts!).

why do women need certain purses or shoes? Does it say they are compensating for something?

Sorry. Still sticking with my theory that men with monster trucks and the sock balls hanging from the trailer hitch have microscopic dicks. Tested or untested therory LOL

It's a skit from Nathan For You. It's rather hilarious. I think the whole episode is available on the Comedy Central website, but I can't access it because I live in Canada (boo!).

I mean how much damage may have been inflicted on some of these test subjects if they did not measure up due to not enough tugging on the part of the tester. I also wonder if it is not a machine whether the tester was female or male and whether that had an influence on the outcome. I would love to see the notice asking for volunteers. Must have been a beggar to word.

Another one is that woman with big boobs are fake and/or whores. I agree! And I find some women are just as guilty. If they are mad about something, or in a bad mood the woman may say, "it must be hormones". But aren't we (women and men) allowed to be in a bad mood just because? I may be in a bad mood because I didn't sleep well, or stress at my husband's job, or because the sun hasn't been out in 2 weeks. In my case, if the weather is good, I am in a good mood. If it rains or the sun doesn't come out for weeks, both my husband and I are very crabby! Just my thoughts though!

I just like to call assholes, assholes. Ugh, and I HATE the 'it must be that time of the month' thing when a woman isn't tolerant of nonsense. I had a hysterectomy almost two decades ago. I don't need that reason to be irritated by your foolishness. LOL Yeah, but men who say the time of the month thing have teenie, tiny penises AND they are thoroughly intimidated by women.
