      Does anyone with any particular body characteristic overcompensate by purchasing a land rover or it it just meant to mock them by associating them with something they, and the person making the association, perceive as negative?

        I think the idea is that if you feel the need to have a powerful status symbol like a Range Rover or a Porsche then the only explanation is that you just desire the status symbol of “Big Man”. The old joke is then that they feel the need to be a big man because they feel ashamed about something else like having a small willy.

          So you’re saying that it’s shameful to have a small penis and it’s OK to look down on people based on their penis size?

          That’s the assertion your theory is dependent on.

          I know it’s rare to think about things we say often but really try and think about it, it’s a dumb thing to say and continuing it simply because it’s commonly said would be really dumb - not everyone with a small penis is a rage filled monster but forcing these cruel assertions that someone with a small penis is likely to be the sort of loser that drives a Porsche does make it more likely someone with a small penis will fixate on it and suffer social anxiety because of it.

            I know fully well that’s the case, that’s why I described it as “the theory” and “the old joke” rather than saying it’s what I think or that I think it’s correct.

              Good to hear, then my comment is directed at anyone who uses this excuse or makes such jokes.
