The point of the comment is to point out the common misconception that the value of one [token of a currency] has anything to do with the strength of a currency. As described in the comment, the value of a singular token of a currency can be chosen arbitrarily.

This, of course, doesn't mean the map is factually incorrect.

Where do you get all these Coca Cola flavours? I'm in Germany and have only ever seen vanilla, lemon, cherry and life (next to the default, light and zero).

The issue with Hexbear is that their users tend to talk in a very demeaning and insulting manner. About half of the popular posts on Hexbear are about making fun of people or communities. Their political views are less of an issue; it's more about their toxic behaviour.

That isn't exclusive to eastern nations. For example "arab" and "german" are also common porn categories.

the man in the comic became uncomfortable seeing it

I don't understand this point. The reason they're uncomfortable with it is because they're drawn in a sexualized manner? But even if all else is true, men in comics are already drawn in a way that many men think is attractive.

At least that's how I understand the point of the "power fantasy". Or do they mean literal physical strength with the "power fantasy"? Because the sexualization of men is definitely not limited to muscles.

Assuming the power fantasy is not just about physical strength, but also (or only) about extreme attractiveness (as perceived by men):

That is an idea that could be true. Are there statistics about how close the typical male hypersexualization is to women's interests compared to how close the typical female hypersexualization is to men's interests?

Did I misunderstand the post?

The point seemed to be that sexualization of men and women is different because not all women like the typical sexualized ~~male~~ man (as per the example given). That being different implies that men do all like the typical sexualized woman. Which is wrong.

(edit: just realized I did a reverse menandfemales)

Women have differing tastes. Men on the other hand all like the same.

Just like many women don't like extreme muscley figures many men don't like extreme hourglass figures.

Not all women are the same. Not all men are the same either. Claiming otherwise is sexist in both cases.
