It's just their knees, it's all g.

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.org 26 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Both sexes can have or lack tits. So the first one is okay, the second one is sexist.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Who said anything about sex? I’d rather read an essay comparing these:

[–] riskable@programming.dev 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just keep these fellas out of it:

Blue footed booby bird

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

They’ll eat all the nuts for sure!

[–] ShareMySims@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

In the same way people of all genders can have tits, so can people of all genders have nuts, so if that's your reasoning, either both are sexist, or neither are.

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

If you read my comment carefully you will notice that I was talking about Sex, not Gender.

[–] elidoz@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

ovaries are just nuts in the inside

[–] riskable@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

I Snickers at this comment.

[–] PumaStoleMyBluff@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Colloquial "sexism" is heavily based on gender, so if you want to be precise you should probably use another phrase entirely

[–] ShareMySims@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

And if you knew anything about either, you'd know that both are a spectrum, so your argument is still invalid

pick something neutral - that's the shit.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 6 points 2 months ago

Hey everybody poops...except for Kim Jung Un, so maybe don't use that one on holiday in North Korea...

[–] Chef_Boyargee@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

No no, the neutral ground is the taint.

[–] youstolemyname@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Not to be confused with "shit"

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Just say it's ass, then you're good. Unless that's assogynist

[–] Chef_Boyargee@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (7 children)

I’m pretty sure that everyone likes boobs, and nuts are just not awesome in any way. If someone’s using nuts as a superlative thing, their priorities are definitely askew.

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 22 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Hard disagree. Nuts are awesome. They're soft, and they're fun to play with, and they're also a fantastic emergency stop button in a fight

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Um, are they supposed to be soft? I might need to see my doctor.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The testes themselves aren't soft ime, but if we're talking about the overall (scrotum + testes), then I would say it's pretty soft.

Though I'm going to take this moment to soapbox about the importance of regular testicular self examinations: https://www.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-information-and-support/testicular-cancer/how-to-check

The key thing is checking regularly enough that you know what's normal for you, and thus can see a doctor if there are any unexpected changes in shape or texture. (Apologies for lecturing in reply to what was probably a joke)

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My doctor has been extolling this (correct) perspective lately and you are excellent for supporting it.

But because the original post was a joke, I have to share: I've never had a professional testicular examination before. I'm in my late thirties now and recently changed doctors due to moving. My new doctor, the first time I saw her, offered diagnostic testicular palpation. I declined, as I had no cause for concern, then when I got home told my wife how surprised I was at the suggestion. (Not offended or anything, just caught off guard.)

My wife, whom you might have guessed is a woman, was not sympathetic to my surprise, as she'd had genital inspections throughout her life.

I normally try to make the last line of a post like this pithy and humorous, but three other conversations I have going on in the background have robbed me of any joy as I typed this (if you knew me you probably would observe the change in tone between paragraphs), so I will merely present this as factual.

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Late thirties?

Suprised by a doctor offering to fondle your balls?

... Might not be long before they insist on calling Doctor Proctor in for a... mildly invasive exam.

You can also grab twist em upside down and squeeze them into a wee little fly face to thrill all your future partners.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Bop em! Twist em! Pull em!

I didn't like your comment and I didn't like posting this response, but commenting this seemed necessary.

[–] ShareMySims@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

At least your reply gave this one person a good chuckle, so you have that going for it lol

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 14 points 2 months ago

Dude that's nuts

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's such a straight male thing to say

[–] itsnicodegallo@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

My lesbian friends would disagree.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

They look like a mountain range covered in cheap shampoo and burnt trees.

[–] ignoble_stigmas@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

I agree, and moreover, no one is allergic to boobs, but people are dying from nuts allergies!

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

That's nuts, my friend.

[–] i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

Ok but that scrote skin is definitely pretty great.

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

This post is the clap.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 10 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I used to say 'the bomb' until I thought about it a bit. Am I really comparing your slick dance move to nuclear annihilation? How does that work out?

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 2 months ago

Is it da bomb bc it's so good that it blew people away, or so bad that it bombed?

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

The lap dance was a bomb, I just exploded in my pants

[–] lud@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

To be fair the vast majority of bombs aren't nuclear.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

This post is the reproductive and/or maternity organs.

[–] str82L@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

It's the duck's guts

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

This thread is the cloaca.

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 4 points 2 months ago

You could split the difference and say nuits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb-xyNa9mwI
