Do they really suffer from the baby dick?

quote:

A survey of more than 1,000 men in India has concluded that condoms made according to international sizes are too large for a majority of Indian men.

quote:

The two-year study was carried out by the Indian Council of Medical Research.

Over 1,200 volunteers from the length and breadth of the country had their penises measured precisely, down to the last millimetre. The scientists even checked their sample was representative of India as a whole in terms of class, religion and urban and rural dwellers.

The conclusion of all this scientific endeavour is that about 60% of Indian men have penises which are between three and five centimetres shorter than international standards used in condom manufacture.

Doctor Chander Puri, a specialist in reproductive health at the Indian Council of Medical Research, told the BBC there was an obvious need in India for custom-made condoms, as most of those currently on sale are too large. The issue is serious because about one in every five times a condom is used in India it either falls off or tears, an extremely high failure rate.

Just once I'd like to see a mens rights movement focus on real male problems that kind of get ignored in modern gender politics like the rapid increase in eating disorders and steroid abuse in male youth over the past couple decades but instead it's always whining about holding doors open or paying for meals.

There are plenty of legit gendered issues that affect men and are largely glossed over and the idea of a progressive group that focused on the kind of stuff that gets left out of the more woman centric feminism is nice but at the end of the day these groups always seem more anti woman than pro men.

I like how any time there's anything related to men's rights, no matter how insignificant the paper or rapey the country, there's like five counter articles written up by Jezebel/buzzfeed/gawker/kotaku. Makes u think eh??

do you feel that male eating disorders/steroid abuse is uniquely different enough from women's body image issues that feminism addresses that it could benefit from an entire separate movement?

it is undeniably accurate that at least parts of India are disgusting and the people who live there are gross as gently caress.

I think it's a similar issue that could be addressed simultaneously but it simply isn't covered by modern social media centric feminism. I'm sure academics who study this for a life can manage consistent logic in how they explore these issues but when it gets out to the general public it always boils down to tribalism. Body image is a great example of this because for years and years we've had feminism talk about unrealistic standards of beauty and how they hurt women, shows with a sloppy husband and a hot wife are disparaged and using sex to sell is seen as objectification, but in 2015 we're starting to do the same thing to men (tallywhackers, shows like girls and the mindy show having frumpy leads dating model men, meghan trainor videos singing about body image featuring plus sized girls while the male dancers are all thin and muscular) and the same people and blogs that poo poo on hooters for being sexist at best don't even notice or at worst actively embrace or support it.

We're in the process of dumping the same body image issues on men as we do women and it's completely ignored as an issue despite the trends in stats like steroid abuse or eating disorders showing it's a legitimate rising problem. I absolutely think there is room for a positive male centric movement but so far I've seen are negative anti-women ones.
