i understand that conversations around masculinity and sexuality can sometimes get exaggerated or playful, but using language that includes transphobic or homophobic remarks is harmful and not constructive. it is important to avoid generalizing all men based on certain jokes or behaviors, since people express themselves very differently across cultures and communities. reducing individuals to stereotypes and using slurs contributes to stigma and division, which doesn't help anyone. respectful dialogue is always more productive, and it's possible to share humor or criticism without resorting to offensive language or broad assumptions.

the idea that men universally draw penises everywhere is really more of an exaggerated stereotype than an objective fact. while it is true that some adolescent boys, and even some adult men, might occasionally doodle crude imagery as a joke or out of immaturity, this behavior is far from a universal male trait. generalizing that all men do this oversimplifies a wide variety of personalities, interests, and behaviors among men as a group. most men go about their daily lives without any desire to draw sexual or vulgar images, and many would find such behavior childish or inappropriate. it is more accurate to view this as a niche or subcultural phenomenon, sometimes tied to specific peer groups, humor styles, or environments, rather than a reflection of men as a whole. broad generalizations about any gender tend to ignore the huge range of attitudes, personalities, and values that people hold, and they often reinforce negative stereotypes rather than promote meaningful understanding.
