I’m not sure if you’re aware but one of the favorite racist attacks against Asian men always has to do with penis size.

I am aware, but if you read the story, you'll notice that there are literally no Asian men involved. The story centers around an Asian woman, which means there must be something else going on. Namely...

And you had to play that card?

I'm not making fun of the woman for having a small penis--I'm making fun of the knee-jerk trope (that is quite popular here at the DU) that anyone who gets a gun for "protection" is compensating for a small penis.

To make it clearer: I think it's fine for her to get a gun for protection. I don't question her reason for doing so. I don't buy into the bullshit claims about guns being a compensation for having a small penis.

I'm not making fun of her. I'm making fun of people who think that someone getting a gun must be compensating for having a small penis.
