I could wish that Greta hadn't used a joke with body-shaming at the heart to do it, but the fact that Andrew Tate felt so upset by it that he managed to get himself arrested in Romania because of it is bringing me no small amount of joy, I'm not gonna lie #fafo #MasculinitySoFragile

I'm kinda torn on it being body shaming. I agree that the phrase is problematic but she obviously doesn't know what his penis looks like so there's no actual, idk, intent? You can have a big penis and have SDE and you can have a small penis and have BDE. I think she was trying to trigger him (obviously successfully) more than just using "fragile masculinity" would have 🤷‍♀️

@chelming I agree most less body-shaming responses would not have set Tate off the same way, but still.

I have a friend who has a medical condition that's caused them significant anguish because for most of their teenage and adult life, they've felt like a broken human being for this exact reason.

yeah. you're right. you did say "a joke with body shaming at the heart of it" vs her specifically body shaming (not that one is better than the other).
