Well, I don’t own an SUV but I do have a REALLY BIG Dodge Van. A HUGE Dodge Van that gets very poor gas mileage. My penis, alas, is miniscule\*, so I guess the small penis/large automotive conveyance theory holds. \*By Texas standards, that is. In other parts of the country, people are in awe of my mighty Dodge Van and the penis that powers it. ---

Personally, I think we all need to back way off on this “insult through implication” concept. If I say “People who own those little yappy poodles are weenies”, and Joe Doper\* responds with “I happen to own a poodle; them’s fightin’ words”, he’s really overreacting a bit. I see a distinct difference between saying “Joe Doper is a weenie”, and “Poodle owners are weenies”. \*Apologies if that’s anyone’s real user name - it’s supposed to be fictitious. ---

Actually I know Joe Doper. He doesn’t own a poodle. He has a Weiner dog. But its hung like a poodle. ---

I think “prejudice” is a pretty strong word for an off-the-cuff remark. Maybe you could lighten up a little. Perhaps a joke might help: A naive young man is in bed naked with a woman for the first time. He says, “I’ve never made love before - do you think we could?” She replies: “Sorry, I’m on my period”. Confused, the young man says, “What’s a period?” She says, “I’m _bleeding_ down there - take a look.” The young man peers beneath the sheets, pops his head up again and says “No wonder you’re bleeding - someone cut your penis off.” ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by blowero \* > **I think “prejudice” is a pretty strong word for an off-the-cuff remark.** When the remark shows up three times in a two page thread, it stops being (for me) “off-the-cuff” and starts being (again, for me) damned irritating. I’ve seen that sort of remark thrown against all sorts of people. Over the years, I’ve seen it thrown into discussions about guns, about remote controls, about speeding, about hunting, about sports, about stockbrokers/investment bankers, and probably some other topics I’m forgetting. Belittling (please pardon the pun) the opponent in a debate just makes you (the general you, not the specific you) look bereft of argument. There are occasions when it reveals something worse than that, and while I don’t necessarily think this is one, I still find the habit annoying as hell. As for your joke? God help me, I laughed. 😃 Julie ---

Didn’t I read here that a clitoris is really a small penis… or if you’re a woman that a penis is really just a large clitoris? Heck, I LOVE people with small penises! Small penises for everyone, I’m buying! But ummm… make mine a double. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by lieu \* > Didn’t I read here that a clitoris is really a small penis… or if you’re a woman that a penis is really just a large clitoris? Yeah, but one’s an innie, the other’s an outie. ---

That’d be good on a woman’s T-shirt… _My penis is an innie._ ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by lieu \* > Didn’t I read here that a clitoris is really a small penis… or if you’re a woman that a penis is really just a large clitoris? You may have read it here, but it isn’t technically true. They are analogous (not to be confused with analingus), but not really equivalent, organs. The function and structure of each is different, though they share some of the same tissue (eg erectile) and both originate from the some non-differentiated organ during development. ---

Both my Accord and my penis get great “mileage.” Both get me to my destination quickly, with a minimum of energy spent. This is not necessarily a good thing, when applied to both. ---

Just recently I’ve been thinking that rear spoilers and big exhausts were indicative of penis size over compensation. ---

One more joke: A little girl and her brother are taking a bath together. The girl sees her brother’s penis and says “Mommy, what’s that?”. “That’s called a penis, dear”. The little girl says, “Mommy, I want to have a penis”. The Mom says, “Don’t worry, honey - when you grow up, you can have as many as you want.” ---

95% of MALE dopers will probably open this thread. But not respond. Why? Cause it is simultaneously our favorite and most feared subject.
