@LloydBaker: This was your initial post:

This is what I wrote back to you, quoting that post:

Then you "quote" this post, but conveniently leave out the first sentence "Body dismorphic disorder; that's how YOU feel. YOU." Then you post your response as:

Your regularly post what you think. Why not own it? You posted: A micro is body dismorphic disorder. Average and feeling small is boy dismorphic. If these two sentences were not your thoughts, what is the source then? Otherwise, the average reader would assume these words to be your thoughts; you typed them, right?

If you post something, you should be able to justify it when asked for clarification or challenged about its veracity. And, you speaking for many or most people, who you claim are looking for someone to look down upon is just that--speaking for others. Without any source, other than your thought.

It's not against TOS to say "I think", or "In my opinion" or "I believe". That's what makes these boards so much fun; the difference of opinion and the debate/discussion that stems from such. I've said it many times; I came for the pix here and stayed for the convo; learned a thing or two along the way about that which I was ignorant. One is never too old to learn new things; can we get agreement on that?

I can assure you that, and I'm not speaking for any others here, I am not looking for anyone to look down upon. I've been on the receiving end of that as an out gay man for 45 years. I know how it feels. And it's not a good feeling.

I would appreciate it though, in the future, if we have further discussions, that you kindly quote ALL I write, rather than cherry pick. I promise you the same kindness. Cheers!
He quotes himself almost as much as anyone else, do you expect reasoning and a well-supported argument?

Well, to be honest with you, Yes, Yes I do. ;)

But then again, you do make a good point about who he quotes...and even then, he cherry-picks, lol!

Did you miss my correction of the typos: A micro is NOT body dysmorphic disorder. Average and feeling small is body dysmorphic. ????

Now you're just embarrassing yourself. So I'm not quoting authorities on the subject, but if I was, they're wrong? Dude, you've lost your grip on sanity.

BDD doesn't have any size criteria. But as you assume to know more than "recognized authorities", there's little point in going further. I hope this is just trollling on your part, because you make less and less sense as you go on. If I didn't know better I'd say you're a second account of wally's.

Being body dysmorphic means you don't see your body as it its. If you think your penis is small when it is an inch or 2 above average, you are body dysmorphic. If you think you are small when you actually are way below average you are not suffering dysmorphia.

No, it makes sense to quote the part one is contesting or otherwise making a point about. The original posts are still available for reference.

When I quote myself it is usually correct a typing error, expand upon, justify, or clarify a statement, etc. This practice hardly seems to be a reasoning error. A reasonable person would see the practice as a conscientious effort to get it right.

So you never argue with authorities?

I've already noted and corrected the typos in the above referenced sentence. Generally, I disavow typos which too frequently occur on hand held devices. Actually, it wouldn't have taken a great deal of insight for others to have noted the typos as well as they created the opposite meaning from my well established line of thought.

Once again, somehow, someway, you've misquoted me in your post #503 what I typed to you. It is purposeful on your part. To somehow help you backpeddle when you get called out on your shit. You need to stop. It is a violation of the TOS. All you need to do is hit reply. It captures the entire quote. It's really easy.

As to your question "Did I miss your correction of the typos"? No, Lloyd, I did not miss seeing that correction. However, some facts are important to note:

1. You posted #483 at 9:41 am yesterday;
2. I posted #484 at 2:56 pm yesterday, addressing your post #483;
3. @ItsAll4Kim posted #492 at 5:10 pm yesterday, also addressing your post #483;
4. You posted your "correction of the typos" post #495 today, at 8:08 am.

How then would either of us been able to comment on your post #495 in either post #483 or post #492? That just ain't possible. Cuz your post #495 came AFTER posts #484 and #492.

Your words "Average and feeling small is boy/body dysmorphic", right? That's what you wrote; that's what I commented on. These same words appear in your corrected post. My initial comments in post #484 still stand. It's simply your projection. It's what you do. Regularly.

No, it makes sense to quote the part one is contesting or otherwise making a point about. The original posts are still available for reference.

It's not up to me to click here and click there to better understand your musings and their intent; nope, not gonna happen. That's your job. I'm not gonna work that hard to make sense of your or any other poster's confusing and oftentimes conflicting posts. It's up to you to make your posts sensical. But hey, I like your sense of self-importance here.

I've already noted and corrected the typos in the above referenced sentence. Generally, I disavow typos which too frequently occur on hand held devices. Actually, it wouldn't have taken a great deal of insight for others to have noted the typos as well as they created the opposite meaning from my well established line of thought.

I agree with you about typos; I detest them. Especially since a lot of us here don't have the ability to edit. But they happen. Here's an idea: Maybe stop posting on hand held devices until you can take/have the time to proof what you write. Before you hit post. That will go a long way to alleviate the confusion with your posts like that which spans your original and subsequent corrected posts being discussed here.

I like a guy with a healthy sense of self-worth. But I must admit, I do struggle at times to follow your logic. Your self-described "well established line of thought" is just that; self-described. Can we get agreement on that?

"B" and "Kim": I see you are both eager to talk about peripheral matters (me and typos for instance) but not about the reality of a person having a small penis. I have outlined my position and you seldom, if ever, touch on my rather obvious, if not totally clear to you, points. I'd be glad to argue substance or clarify what you don't understand about my position.

You just got done telling me that I either misquoted authorities, or they are wrong. Did you support this with another authority supporting your claims? No. We're just supposed to accept that you are right.

It doesn't work that way, and for that reason, I'm out. Rage on, and good luck being miserable with your body.

You implied that small penis concerns are always based on body dysmorphism. Your statement seemed to imply you had authorities for that opinion. If so, please make us aware of them.

I disagreed and said, no, penis size dysmorphia is indicated only if someone thinks his penis is smaller than it is, thinks his penis is too small for good sex in a particular situation when it isn't too small, or thinks his penis is small when it isn't. Somone who, let's say, has a micro-penis and knows it, is not suffering from body dysmorphia if he is concerned about his lack of size, and, indeed, is suffering a severe handicap. Small penis handicaps reduce in intensity from there and are relative to the details of the situation.

Maybe now my opinion is worded clear enough for you to make a reply of substance. My only needed authority was the definition of dysmorphia that you supplied, I think.

Here is another definition from www:

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a distinct mental disorder in which a person is preoccupied with an imagined physical defect or a minor defect that others often cannot see.

I am not raging or being miserable. I have experienced my less than average penis as a handicap at times.

No, you didn't.

And nowhere does that state or even remotely imply that in the case of genitalia there is a size threshold below which a diagnosis would not be made. You very clearly claimed there was one:
Correcting typos: A micropenis is NOT body dismorphic disorder.

Around average and feeling small is body dismorphic.

I have experienced my more than average penis as a "handicap" at times. Does that make it an actual handicap? No.

...so rage on.

No, it might mean you are dysmorphic. Or it might mean it was an actual handicap in the situation. With a partner who prefers larger it might be a relative handicap. I have already stipulated way back in the thread that we are no talking about qualifying for legal status as handicapped or disabled!

You have no evidence I am "raging" and I am not. Why the insults?
