@clintruin@mastodon.social @RonSupportsYou@mastodon.social @aral@mastodon.ar.al I haven't been on Xitter for 2,5 years, tho. I literally searched for an excerpt of the OP using my SearXNG instance and found the post on Xitter because I wanted to know where it came from.

@confusedMiddleAgedDad@mastodon.social @Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt also, testosterone doesn't accumulate indefinetely, every human body has a plateau of how much it can hold of that hormone, any excess from that is quite literally rejected and disposed by our body.

@saltywizard @Curator this reminds me of: there's this guy at work that's super attractive, stylish, polite, smart and nice and we were joking around during the shift, as a group, then I got him on a punchline, he laughed and said "fuck you" while smiling and I replied "I wish you would" while also smiling. he belly-laughed then came around to give me a hug and said "well played!".
unfortunately he's not sexually attracted to me. oh well.
all of this to say that I love playing with the ambiguity of "fuck you" and I agree with what you said Lenny Bruce said.
one more note on "assholes": I'm an enjoyer, 1000%! I still like the distinction of "have an asshole, don't be one", so I can get on board with it being used positively and/or negatively. also because, as per my previous post on this conversation, in the culture I was raised in the asshole contains multitudes. :blobtonguewink:

@Curator @saltywizard I'm a penis owner (and penis enjoyer!) and I never stopped to think about that, isn't it wild? what you're saying does indeed make sense. thank you again!
also, linguistically speaking, the concept of "shit" as derogatory is so versatile and full of possibilities across most languages, one might even build a full list of words and terms based on it to replace ableist and otherwise bigoted language.
a note about "asshole": in Brazilian Portuguese everyday language we use "ass" (anus) in more than a thousand different terms, expressions and idioms, across all the spectrum of positive-neutral-negative feelings. "cuzão" (lit. "big ass", the most direct translation of "asshole" as an insult from English) when used towards a person is an offensive word related to a person's bad behaviour and/or personality; "cuzão" can also refer to someone's big butt in a positive way, and also mean that someone is very lucky and fortunate (there's a whole repertoire of expressions relating having a big butt to having good luck in PTBR).

@JonathanMBR@mstdn.social if that happens, it will also overtake Sao Paulo (Brasil) as the most populous metro area (and megalopolis) in the whole southern hemisphere, a title the brazilian metropolis has been holding for a century.

@Captain69@mastodon.social @theleftistlawyer@mastodon.social most people very much do care, actually, because that's how all of us were raised: in a structurally gendered world. I'm glad you live in a "post-gender" world, it's a very high privilege to be able to do so. sadly, that's not a shared reality, and being a cool person involves understanding that and not dismissing how people feel about themselves and how they wanna be treated, gendered or not. otherwise, you end up being a jerk.

@Nonilex@masto.ai “We used to deploy power in dangerous situations for #democracy," that is absolutely a huuuuuuuuuge lie, the US has been meddling with other countries systems, governments, regimes et al for 125 years, including putting not-at-all democratic dictators in power!!!
