I keep hearing the term in political discourse, and rather than googling it, I'm asking the people who know better than Google.

Hey I don't know your gender. Dickriding in my experience is a gender-neutral sport.

I display that I use he/they pronouns, and further using dickriding as an insult purely has roots in homophobia and misogny. It focuses on sexual shame in submission to someone with a dick.

Idk I don't feel submissive on top but you do you ig

Are you allergic to making a coherent point? You're narrowing in on the fact that I called out your homophobia, and are now doubling and tripling down on it, rather than returning to the other points I made. This is just shit-flinging.
