Why can't it be that a man simply enjoys hunting, guns, boats, trucks? Those that use the phrase are of course able to make whatever assumptions they like. I'll simply assume they lack the intelligence to make a rational argument. I think that a man can certainly enjoy those things. But like with cars, or women's purses, vacations, etc., it's about more than just the item itself. It's the way they act with it and whether it's seemingly over the top or not. Is it just a sports car? Or is it a $100,000 sports car that goes 1-60 in 3.5 seconds? Is it just a big truck or is a big truck with aftermarket dual pipes, lift kit, adorned in all manner of attention getting (and possibly offensive) stickers? Is it a boat to tool around the lake or is it a party barge? And, yeah you could say it's their money and they can spend it however they want, but only a fool thinks they aren't being judged by what they put out into the world. Maybe these people don't care or maybe they are douchbags. Are they cutting people off and throwing their weight around in traffic? (Studies have been done on this that showed the more expensive the car, the more likely the person was to expect other cars to let them have their way and "back off" in traffic.) It's not just if your co-worker bought an expensive purse, it's does she flaunt it? It's not just did your uncle get a vacation, it's does he talk about it every single time you see him? The way you act, dress, look, what you own and what you "value" all show the world who you are, or at least what your priorities are. If you have an expensive car, expensive watch, nice clothes, it may say that you have taste or a job where looks and image are important. If I then see you flaunting them, driving like a moron, or sneering at the plebian cars you pass, THEN I'm gong to assume there's more going with you. There are people who have a vast emptiness inside themselves caused by low self esteem, bad marriages, whatever, and they choose to fill it up with "things" to make themselves feel better, like shopping addicts. They are compensating for something lacking within themselves through material objects, like someone else might use alcohol or drugs. As for making a rational argument, I'm not certain one can be made here. It's human nature to judge. We can control other's perception of us to a certain extent. So it stands to reason that someone who does extravagant things or owns extravagant thing (I'm not just talking extravagant as a personal judgement call, but things beyond the average in general) knows this and expects to be perceived a certain way, have a certain image. Sometimes it just comes across as trying too hard, thus the compensating metaphor. Saying someone was less than blessed in their pants is just the easiest way to get that across in a way everyone is going to understand. What rational argument are you looking for? For why it's okay to call someone out on their perceived "jerkiness" (but not to their face) ? Or perhaps a rational argument as to why they are jerky in the first place? Why is anyone arguing this in the first place? The jerks don't care that they are jerks (or else they wouldn't be jerks), the people expressing their psychic measuring abilities don't care about the opinion of someone slapping their wrists on what they are saying in the privacy of their own conversation... I would hope that none of us are actually saying that to someone's face. 'Cause even if it is true, it seems wrong to point it out to their face.

If a person has to buy a pair of balls to hang off their truck, I automatically think they don't have a pair of their own. What's next, a breasts for the front of the vehicle? Interchangeable bras or pasties? Women gotta keep up, you know. Hanging balls are trashy. I hate the naked lady silhouette mud flaps too.

When my kids were still in elementary school we walked past a house that we often passed on our nightly walks. My youngest saw the giant truck with a plastic hanging nut sack. My youngest said, "He's got a small penis." So I asked him what he meant and my oldest (maybe 10 at the time) said, "You know mom, he's compensating for his small for penis." Of course they learned this from their father. I kind of thought it was funny coming out of their young mouths, but I probably shouldn't have.

Sorry. Still sticking with my theory that men with monster trucks and the sock balls hanging from the trailer hitch have microscopic dicks. Monster trucks are called "Compensators" in our family because the owner must be compensating for a lack of something.

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? To quote insults thrown at me in school - Thunder Thighs, Huge Ass, Cow, Heifer.... Of course there are the Cankle insults to women now. And low hanging junk in her trunk.... So yeah, maybe the guys are getting off lightly with just dick insults.

Just had to add that I don't see many ball sacks hanging on trucks these days. When I did, I would often say, "Guess his wife found out what the truck payment is." My DSs would just laugh.

I wouldn't normally quote myself, but I knew you would all be dying to see a picture of this Adonis. You got a front view - oh man! I only saw the back view on Villager Jim's Fb site. That was quite enough for me! LOL OMG someone who knows the word Eejit!!!!! ( miss my gramma and my daddy ) People around here look at me like i have four heads if I use that word. But I grew up using it. LOL

I saw an older Dodge minivan with them once.Took everything in me not to pull along side and say "Don't those belong in your wife's purse??"

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.' WTH? I'm learning too much...

I wanna see interchangeable pasties on the front of a car Are you talking pasties of the Cornish variety, or pasties as in the twirly nipple thingies? Coz I googled "Pasties on car" and got lots of interesting hits! Now I'm hungry for pasties. The food, not the nipple things.

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 Um....how awesome of you to defend your husband's dick to a bunch of women who really don't care. It's funny how defensive you are about this issue. You should be enjoying your husband's massive penis instead of being so angry about some of the opinions expressed here.

I get how "small dick" is an insult, but in this case I don't think "massive penis" was exactly meant as a compliment...
Big or small, always being tossed around and used to smack someone else in the - wait, that's not sounding right...

I take that, but what about those $900 purses and shoes and coats we see talked about on here. If you are going to assign motive to someone's preferences (aka big trucks or guns), why can't the same be attaches to the female version? Exactly. It must mean that her husband is cheating on her because she sucks in bed. She's trying to show off how perfect her world is. Or maybe she's compensating for how terrible she is as a mother. She can't keep her kids in line but damn it to hell, she'll have a great looking purse. Why can't it be that a man simply enjoys hunting, guns, boats, trucks? I think the period:bad mood example was a great comparison. And again, how would you know that someone with a fondness for guns has a small penis unless you've personally examined them all? Those that use the phrase are of course able to make whatever assumptions they like. I'll simply assume they lack the intelligence to make a rational argument. I agree! We are at the beach now, and my three teen/pre-teen daughters and my nephew say they want to buy a big boat when they can afford it. I think it's because they love being out on the ocean in a boat!

Ummm I don't see her getting all defensive nor did she say he had a massive penis. In fact she said he had a normal penis. She ended the whole post with a LOL. It is very clear it was a tongue in cheek comment. Not to mention that I am pretty sure that wasn't even the point of the post. I believe the point was that not all the times are the men picking out the big trucks, sometimes it is the wife. So the question begs to be asked...why are you so defensive? Why are you so angry over opinions being expressed?

I just don't understand how she made the leap from normal dick to massive dick and thinking that Jennifer was being defensive. I am not sure if I have ever commented about package size as much as I have in these last 2 posts. LOL Kinda weird to me. HA

This is definitely taking up way to much of my time. I need to get a real life.
