      Reacting defensively to earnest criticism speaks volumes, I’m afraid.

          Usually when it’s pointed out to me that I’m reacting defensively I take a moment to think about why that is, maybe you should do the same.

                  “Sucking someone’s dick” is often used as a way to refer to someone sucking up to someone else in a way that isn’t explicable unless there were a secret relationship

                  why would you immediately assume you understand its usage in every case?

                  so why is sucking dick a thing requiring a secret relationship?

                  also it seems like a specifically gendered expression, why wouldn’t you say “eating Russian pussy” if you wanted to imply that there’s some relationship

                  It just scans as homophobic, just as calling trump/elon women as an insult reads as misogynistic.
