10. I don't think that the issue of whether the women like men or not has anything to do with it.

What I am talking about here is merely the double standard.

As you pointed out, "all hell would break loose" if we were to discuss this issue of how women compensate for feelings of small breasts or loose vaginas, In fact, even using those words puts me in peril of having this post hidden for some reason that I cannot yet fathom.

So you tell me -why is the suggestion that men exaggerate the size of their own penises; or the suggestion that they are motivated by the fear of small penises; or the statement that "we are glad we don't have penises"... WHY are they okay and it is not okay to discuss ANY of the corollary questions?
