| 0:30.0 | Dear Chris, I'm listening to episode 272 of the podcast and I have to take you to |
| 0:36.0 | task about your dick shaming. I really like your podcast but fuck you dude. |
| 0:41.6 | Saying that one should only send dick pics when it's appropriate is one thing. |
| 0:46.3 | I've had plenty of women enjoy receiving dick pics from me after we've established a relationship. |
| 0:52.7 | Kudos to you for helping educate. But to say, dick's are ugly is shaming. You're supposed to be the |
| 0:58.2 | shame exorcist and here you are reinforcing men's insecurities about their penis. That's stupid and |
| 1:04.1 | hypocritical. Get it together on this Chris and learn how to love your penis and stop saying that |
| 1:09.4 | penis is ugly. That's an email I got this week. And I wouldn't say it's the only one standing up |

| 2:01.2 | but shame never is. On the other hand, I think a bit of perspective is called for and I think that |
| 2:10.1 | when there is an inflation or some sort of a bubble, psychological bubble that's expanding, |
| 2:21.2 | it needs to get practicationally if you'll pardon the puns. And I think there's a lot of evidence |
| 2:29.8 | that a lot of men think their dicks are these magical, incredible, like magic wands that all |
| 2:39.0 | you have to do is show it to a woman and she'll fall under its spell. Or if you fuck her with it, |
| 2:51.4 | oh my god, then she'll be yours forever. Or if someone else fucks her with theirs, then you've |
| 2:57.6 | lost her forever. There's all this weird magical thinking around dicks. And so that's what I was trying |
