Ok, hear me out. I learned recently that my girlfriend has had two exes with very authoritarian leaning views- both highly narcissistic themselves and both had “surprisingly small members.”
I also learned that people assume I’m gay because of effeminate mannerisms. I never bothered to pay much attention to it because people can’t read minds. Further, I have little concern about how large I am.
But it occurred to me that authoritarians try to control other people to extreme degrees, and dictate what roles men and women have in society, and interestingly, the roles men do are things that make them look “powerful” or “strong” or just… “big.”
The ven diagram of authoritarian views, narcissism, lifted trucks, and demented opinions of masculinity is a circle. I also learned that those exes were HIGHLY sensitive about their size. I think the circle includes another anxiety as well.
The idea that people you don’t like are biologically inferior is a pretty old idea. I don’t know why it has such staying power. It’s never been redeemed or justified; nothing good has ever come of it. Maybe it stays popular because it flatters the ego of those who believe it.
Im not saying they’re biologically inferior though. Anywhere in that post
Having a small penis doesn’t make someone biologically inferior. It also doesn’t make them an authoritarian.
Overcompensating for your small penis by being an ass with demands on other men to conform to your manliness makes you have a problem with your thinking. As in, authoritarians have a problem with themselves that they can’t change and project it onto other people.
That doesn’t make them inferior. It means they need a LOT of work.
