> [@SamuelA](#): > > This comment is stupid. Why? Because in \ where would you traffic women _from_? There’s an estimated million sex workers in the city already and the price to fuck one is extremely low, why kidnap more? What economic incentive is there? Because you fucking moron, a vast percentage of those “million sex workers” were trafficked in the first place. “Why kidnap more?” Are you fucking serious. These poor girls don’t last forever, you know. They get old. They get pregnant. They die. They overdose on drugs. It’s not like there is a medical plan for them. They will always kidnap and exploit more. My god, this is as fucking stupid as saying that nobody sells cocaine inside of Columbia because that’s where it comes _from_ and it’s already so cheap, so why would anyone bother to make more for sale there. You are _that_ fucking stupid. Human trafficking occurs internally within those same countries which export humans. These are the countries in which kidnapping and exploitation are easiest and/or most lucrative. Some of the victims might be transported across the world, and some of them never leave the country. Many of them get to stay in their homeland and wait for the piece of shit software developers to fly over and stick their tiny, wart infested dicks into them bare back. That’s why. ---

> [@SamuelA](#): > > Umm, no, I don’t admit that? Quote it. " …though I probably have genital warts. (they are so common the normal test panel doesn’t test for them)." You admit that you probably have an STD. Maybe you know as much about STDs as you do about pretty much everything else? Here: A Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) is a disease caused by a sexually transmitted infection (STI). A genital wart is a disease (STD) caused by an infection (STI) of the human papilloma viruses (HPV). There. Now you’ve learned something. ---

> [@Bear\_Nenno](#): > > Yea, but the sponsored content article he used as a citation proves otherwise. Ok, got any support for the alternate hypothesis. “there is no difference between racial groups for penis size”. This is pretty unlikely to be true if for no other reason than total _body_ size varies between racial groups and assuming no other genetic changes, you would expect penis size to be proportional to total body size. The sex toy manufacturer cited 500,000 samples, so I consider that a reasonably reliable source. Japanese companies are not typically known for outright fraud. ---

So far we’ve established the lengths of how far **SamuelA** will go to cling to an argument, and how shallow of a citation he will use to “prove” it. So far he’s “established” his predilection towards prostitutes. Personally, I shudder at the thought that his genes will spread . . . There is a critical mass of stupid, and it is **SamuelA**. I can’t fathom a second one of him running around. Tripler Yeah, this discussion has indeed taken a scary turn. ---

Isn’t there at least one type of gonorrhea that is incurable? And of course there’s the saying my health ed teacher in 8th grade told the class during the lesson on STDs: if you got one, you likely got another too. ---

And that makes them not STDs how? 😕 As for the “different races are different body sizes”, I’ve seen people of different races of all different body sizes as well. What next, black people have natural rhythem? Asians are good at math? [The Pseudoscience of Race Differences in Penis Size](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/unique-everybody-else/201210/the-pseudoscience-race-differences-in-penis-size) From [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_penis_size#Size_and_race): > [@](#): > > The belief that penis size varies according to race is not supported by scientific evidence. A 2005 study reported that “there is no scientific background to support the alleged ‘oversized’ penis in black people”. In fact, a study of 253 men from Tanzania found that the average stretched flaccid penis length of Tanzanian males is 11 cm (4.53 inches) long, smaller than the worldwide average, stretched flaccid penis length of 13.24 cm (5.21 inches), and average erect penis length of 13.12 cm (5.17 inches). > > A study of 115 men from Nigeria found that the average flaccid stretched penis length of Nigerian males is 13.37 cm (5.26 inches) long, which is near identical to the worldwide average, stretched flaccid penis length of 13.24 cm (5.21 inches) and average erect penis length of 13.12 cm (5.17 inches). A 2015 systematic review found that it was not possible to draw any conclusions about size and race from the available literature and that further research needed to be conducted. If you follow that link, there comments are cited, as always at wiki. Hell, just look at pictures of naked celebrities and you’ll debunk this shit _fast_. In conclusion: you’re a fucking dumbass who doesn’t know his ass from his elbow. We knew that already, so I don’t know why you insist on proving it over and over and over. If you like making yourself look stupid, of course, go for it. Not my problem.
