Why No, I Don’t Want To See Your Dick

Thanks for asking.

Lux Alptraum wrote this week that she hopes Artificial Intelligence can find a way to automate dick pics away. A couple of men who responded either don’t see it as a problem, or don’t believe the problem exists at all. Perhaps that’s because men don’t send other cis gender, straight men unsolicited dick pics.

That’s the only thing that can explain the guy who called the story “dumb,” says it doesn’t happen, and if it does it’s not the norm. He then goes on to suggest that Lux Alptraum should just delete and block, and, “consider your life values” if this (unsolicited dick pics) affects her significantly. He doesn’t make it clear what life values Lux Alptraum should examine. Does he think she is too prudish, and should just say to herself, “Ho Hum, another dick pic. Delete, block and lie back and think about England?” Or perhaps he thinks her Twitter account is too provocative, and men can’t help but send dick pics to her Inbox. The name Inbox is pretty darned provocative itself. She’s obviously asking for it.

Dear Dick Pic Sender,

It doesn’t matter if it is called an Inbox. It is not your Inbox to insert into it any damned thing that pops into your head, or in this case, hand.

Dear Derpy Playz,
