Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven
We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.
Community Rules:
~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Lots of 'pale' downvotes. LOL!
This meme is just perpetuating two harmful ideas:
Reinforcing the expectation that black men have huge dongers
That donger size matters and is a measure of self worth
You'll notice that whilst point 2 effects all men, point 1 is more harmful to black men, as they hold their body to a higher unrealistic standard. Plus it's part of the creepy fetishization of "exotic" people.
Tying people disliking these concepts to them being "pale" is just kinda weird, dismissive, and frankly plain racist.
I'm not personally offended by the post, and haven't downvoted it, I just hate seeing the closed minded and unempathetic mindset that your comment demonstrates
Thanks I was genuinely unsure, I had it with an "a" then changed it later 🤣
No worries. You can "effect" a change (e.g. induce), like a verb. But whatever is on the receiving end of the change is "affected" by it, like in passive voice.
Uniquely concise distinction. Clearly this man is lexically well-endowed.
