You need counseling ASAP

I wonder what life is like, constantly reading into things and searching for ways to be affronted.

It's an expression that's been around for a while. It's not about power or objectification, it's an observation. I wouldn't read too much into it but it's not in anyway intended to be negative.

He hopes it makes his wang look bigger.

Making men feel more powerful is some woman’s interpreting what she thinks it means. As a man, I do not see a small woman and feel powerful. It’s just shows how women are clueless about men. OP it means he think you are tiny. Some men like really small women and other do not. You are most likely getting physical close to him and he is surprised by how small you are. As in oh wow she is tiny. I know kids who are bigger vs her. It can be a turn off for a lot of reasons.

The feminist creed is such a bore.

I've heard men referred to as "sweet things" by women more times than I could count. But I guess that's different.

It’s not.

I trust the sweet things are getting bedded less than the pieces of meat.

I think men like it because it makes them feel big and powerful, even if they’re not.

Agree. But I also think it's incredibly gross and creepy when men talk about women this way.

You’re morons. It’s a compliment of sorts on appearance. Inappropriate from a boss, appropriate on a date. Stop rolling out of bed in the morning looking to be offended.

It's an old dumb expression that means your petite. No big deal except his overall attitudes may be dated.

Women are complimented because they're "small." Men are complimented because they're "big." Read into it what you want. We know the history of sexism and misogynistic behavior.

Who said it OP? A man judging your appearance can be demeaning at work, but maybe ok at a bar. If he came to you and said “you are beautiful” how would
You react? I am sure the guy meant it as a compliment. Nobody goes up to someone and tell them they are ugly.
