- Then don't talk about it. When I read this, I thought "My God, self-

-
- Well, I never felt evaluated on the basis of my penis size. Maybe it's
- not small enough. Or maybe my personhood isn't centered in my cock.

- Listen pal: if you wag your meat around on an electronic forum, it's going
- to get some attention. So people are curious--if you didn't want the
- questions, you'd have kept quiet about it. Live and learn, eh? I think
- it's perfectly appropriate for someone to wonder just how big a cock has
- to be before someone gets so overwrought about it. Probably not as big
- as they'd like to imagine.

-
- Horrors. You know, you're as wrapped up in dick size as the so-called
- size queens you're taking issue with.
-
- Like I said before, the human mind can find anything a source of shame.
- It has little to do with objective reality.
