    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.

                I still don’t see how your words aren’t bigotry just because you’re convinced you have a suitable target.

                You never really answered my question directly, why does sucking dick imply a secret/subservient relationship?

                    You said “subservient”, not me, so maybe also take that one to your therapist too. (this is clearly a word choice you would judge someone else for)

                    quoting you:

                    “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

                    you were the one who said that the expression “sucking dick” means “sucking up to someone else”- do people often “suck up to” their subordinates or their superiors?
