Small reminders for stupidly big cars

The association from otherwise well meaning people with dick-size and body shaming when it comes to cars is weird/creepy.

It’s because it makes the kind of person who drives these shitty cars so fucking mad it’s hilarious

[-] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 3 points 6 months ago

Yup, this. And because old habits tend to die hard. To redesign this without body shaming I am looking for other, non-genital related associations that make suv drivers just as fucking mad

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

I have never understood this. And for some its not even a meme. Some people HONESTLY BELIEVE every single person who buys a large car only does so because of their dick.

It would be a lot stranger if there weren't such a direct correlation between projecting masculinity and buying large vehicles.

But there clearly, objectively, openly is.

You're mistaking being toxically masculine with having a small dick. It's not the same thing and you're actively participating in bodyshaming when you do this. It's just hurting people for no reason.

I'll believe that when you convince me that saying overly proud people have big heads is body shaming.

[-] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 0 points 6 months ago

If insulting someone's dick size wasn't an insult then there wouldn't be people with a kink for it.

[-] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

So there's an insult for every kink and a kink for every insult and something can't be insulting if there's not a kink for it. Got it.

My wife and I have a game we play where we point and laugh at all the “totally not compensating” morbidly obese cars we come across, especially on long drives.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Why did he need the picture that many times tho?

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 months ago

Must be compensating for something.

[-] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 0 points 6 months ago

It's supposed to be for print out, cut out, stick on cars.

I saw this earlier and at first glance thought they were tiny cars, the point being that society should focus on smaller vehicles. Just saw it again and thought “wait…”

This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
