Elementary School-Aged Kids
No such thing. Boys compare the sizes of their dicks. It's innate and universal. |
Well said. |
Have you spent much time in boys locker rooms? |
Comparison is totally fine. Bully behavior isn't. You teach your kids that, don't you? |
| It is just like the cutting the female genital in some cultures. If you are in a culture where it has always been done, you defend it. If you are an outsider looking in, you ask why cut anything that is healthy. |
Who cares? You? |
Who's talking about bullying. I'm saying that adolsecent boys will point out differences and a boy with a small dick will be mocked. No amount of "teaching" will prevent that. |
| As for being made fun of, very dicey to talk about or notice another boy's penis in high school. The situation could quick turn on you. As in...why do you care so much about my dick? |
| OP here...anyone here have an older son that can share some insight? I know, kids are in school now so you can't ask him, but if you ever heard him talking about it, or maybe you can remember to ask him sometime and report back. I am really curious. TIA |
| I have older sons. No one says anything. |

When I was young the reverse was true in this area, and seeing someone uncircumcised was unusual. However, there was one guy on several teams with me who was uncircumcised, and he was not bullied for it.
The reason for this is that to bully another boy for something related to his penis means you were looking at his penis, which opens you up to the accusation of being gay. Boys notice, but that's not something that they're likely to bully over. |
Excellent point. |
I can confirm this, as well.I have never heard my son, husband, or anyone else say this has been an issue after sports. It's one of those arguments that has no basis in reality. And let's say it does happen-so? If your son is going to be teased about his penis, he is going to be teased about something else, guaranteed. It's not his penis that makes him a target, but something else (this is NOT victim blaming. Bullies pick their victims based on perceived weaknesses and social structures). Guys don't tend to mess with the alpha males, no matter the shape or size of their penis, or the glasses they wear, or what have you. |
Exactly. The only way this would work is in a gang-up on you, mob mentality type of situation, and it is likely that the penis is not the instigating factor, but rather, a convenient mark for the target these guys were going to go after anyway. |
I just want to know if you know what you're talking about. I suspect you're a woman, which would mean you do not. |
