I've been watching, displaying photos and occasionally writing here for a number of months and something has begun to bother me... the 'necessity' of a male LPSG member proving his worth by proving his size.
A member posts mentioning his large penis and another member says "Where's your pics? I smell a fake. Fake fake fake... don't feed the trolls..."
How many times have you seen a post where the first reply is "You sound fake," and the original poster replies with, "Well I'm not, and by the way you haven't answered my original question or responded to the topic I'm actually trying to discuss..."
A recent example includes one of Trevor3's posts (in which the suspicious poster continued whining even after photographic 'evidence' was presented) and many others, from first-time posters for goodness' sake!
My own complaint is not against the suspicion itself, but the demands for evidence to sate said suspicions. What happened to the maxim, Don't feed the trolls? If a post is obviously a troll, why not ignore it, why even breathe hot air into the fakery? Instead, we have the penis police jumping at shadows, men who already have a third leg up on the 'competition' who still apparently have something to prove by demanding 'evidence' so that the precious attention from other LPSG members towards their own phallus will not be spread too thin.
Is it not enough to Just point out the truly obvious fakes, and give the rest the benefit of the doubt? This necessity of 'evidence' to prove the poster (often new to the board and in search of a Support Group) innocent, as if he is guilty until proven innocent. Some may say, "We've been fooled before." Of course, it's regrettable, but eventually unavoidable, and you'll be fooled again. Really, is it so important?
Not to mention that jumping the gun on a new member when acting the penis police, to my eyes and likely to others', makes you look like a dick.
I raise this complaint only because as I continue to notice this it interferes with my enjoyment of this community - and of course, obviously, interferes with the welcoming of new large members who are treated with suspicion until they prove their worth to the Napoleonic Penis Police.
(Did you notice that I am a photo-verified member? And why might you have checked for that?)
