Lmao imagine being a cis man and having a peepee so small that you have to wear a fake peepee at all times like moids wtf?
As a trans man I don't understand the need for so-called packers. Like are people really going around analysing random fully clothed men's crotches? Weird.
Let me know. I might be getting unknowingly clocked because it's normal human nature to stare at men's crotches even when they're wearing jeans and I've just never got the memo.
So I have a condition where I have a micropeepee and some other issues as a result (still waiting on surgery atm).
I bought a prosthetic to help with confidence and I can't really go without it now until I get surgery.
However I have to fly from the Uk to Spain next week and am wondering if anyone knows if there will be any issues with me wearing the prosthetic through security?
Does anyone have any advice, as I'd rather not take the prosthetic off if possible, but also don't want to be embarrassed.
Hope I'm not intruding, just thought here would be the best place to ask

Here is the review:
Note:
The first third of this video is shit. The middle is meh. The third part after the 25 minute mark is the best part of this video essay.
1. The video starts with Marx and his ideas. So you already know the ideas in the video are going to be trash.
2. Marx believed that free trade will destroy capitalism in time. -
3. Marx believed that capitalism will destroy itself in time. g-g-guys we have destroyed capitalism by letting it prosper and evolve into gigachad capitalism! We were right guys!
4. Capitalism hates the patriarchy. - maybe.
5. Useless word salad blah blah blah new Earth. Even the speaker mentioned that none of it made any sense.
6. We will break the capitalist barrier any century now guys!
7. The world is going to become a new Earth as progress gets faster and faster. - agree
8. The people mentioned were doing drugs. Nobody is surprised.
9. I am skipping over the shitty Akira Mechanima in the middle of the video
10. The first 12 minutes can be skipped.
11. Accelerationism is deterritorialization. Deterritoiralization is the alteration and loss of identities. This makes sense.
12. Technology replaces everyday biological life and functions over time. I agree.
13. Man is not the center of what capitalism will create in the end. - possible
14. Capitalism will lead towards more and more international conflicts - disagree
15. Culture evolves at a logarithmic curve. - disagree. Culture wars occur every decade but it appears to have peaked at the speed of a decade at a time. Culture moves at the speed of humanity and there are greater limits than for technology.
16. Capitalism is a transcendent extra-dimensional AI trying to birth itself - Wrong. So far not a single AI has emerged that is smarter than a team of humans and beyond their comprehension. A bat isn't smarter than a human for being able to pick up different frequencies. Same is the case for specialized AI.
17. Capitalism is AI - Makes sense actually. As an end product a capitalist system needs to exist for the entities within it. AI is a capitalist society creating its own entities to serve the system and grow it. It is one of the possible end points.
18. Capitalism and AI are the same thing. - Maybe
19. Is humanity still behind the wheel anymore? - Yes it is.
20. Personal opinion - a lot of what these types of people ignore is that humans are evolving too currently, and that humans of the 21st century already have an extreme adaptability ability in place. At 8 billion plus humans you have the required diversity to have a subset of the population adapt to an AI based future as well.
21. As all leftist druggie thinkers who survive the experience, this dude also became right wing over time. ( Waiting for Stephan King to also do the shift soon )
22. University is the center of the educational apparatus of society in the 20th century. - agree
23. Democracy is doomed and doom itself. - disagree.
24. Break all nation states down into thousands of micronations run by corporations. - very r-slurred idea
25. You can choose which one to move to and live under whose rules. - sounds a little less r-slurred
26. Twitter shitposting as enlightened intelligence. - This video essay is r-slurred and has wasted time of my life that I will never get back.
27. Intelligence production as humanity's duty. - I like this ideal.
28. Difference between Artificial intelligence and artificial consciousness. - I like this concept. It's an interesting thought exercise. I think this is the most worthwhile part of the video around 25:24 mark.
29. Capitalism always wins game theory. - Heck yeah it does! USA! USA! USA!
30. Good Zizek bit about how capitalism's end limit is never reached and instead it keeps getting more and more powerful. - Chad segment
31. Protective capitalism - sounds good. This is probably where humanity in practice actually is.
32. Capitalism will return to feudalism. - wrong. Disagree. The very nature of feudalism is why it was replaced by capitalism. No system will willingly return to a worse system even with a new coat of paint.
33. Some spooky ghost exists outside of capitalism. - disagree
34. Describes multiple types of accelerationism. - this is interesting.
35. Leftist accelerationisn - capitalism is trying to get back to feudalism. - I disagree with this one. Capitalism in any form is automatically better than Feudalism. So there is no net positive reason to return to it. Feudalism cannot maintain 2% permanent long term growth.
36. Zero accelerationism - Sees capitalism as locking into one way of existing and continuously changing to keep that system alive and stable and stagnant. The US could be argued to be in a state of Zero accelerationinsm forever doing whatever it takes to maintain 2% growth. Politically nothing changes. I disagree with this idea because obviously politically things have changed but in a way that feels like nothing has changed. It will likely be another two to three centuries before a better system than modern day capitalism emerges.
37. Xeno feminism - Machine gives birth to children. I like this idea. Not requiring women for having kids seems like a good time. Those who want a legacy don't need to hold on to a foid any longer. I am with the radical feminists on this one. s lead tech matches with the ideas that one might find in Xeno feminism.
38. Gender accelerationism. Capital and gender accelerate. As per Gender accelerationism, s women are the cutting edge peak of human gender, going beyond where biological limits of gender end. This one sounds the most realistic and matching with where the US is today.
39. Unconditional accelerationism. Self explanatory. Accelerationism go brrr.
40. _/acc accelerationism. We aren't controlling the process of how the world is changing. The world is changing and we are simply in for the ride. There is no human at the drivers seat. I think this is partly true. Taking into account how humanity is mostly reacting to world events rather than orchestrating them. Like a super advanced ant colony.
41. Accelerating nihilism to its ultimate conclusions. Stagnation of cultural capital.
42. Capitalism doesn't just break down human relations, but replaces them with new human relations and modes of conduct between people. Humans are indispensible to the system of capitalism. - this makes sense to me.
43. We can see the creator of this videos face. He looks exactly what one would expect. I bet he is an rdrama user.
44. Do accelerationists just want to collapse society? Not really. I disagree up to the point that all wannabe accelerationists want society to collapse under its inability to keep up. I call this group of accelerationists incel accelerationinsts or left-behind accelerationists. Those who despise that they couldn't keep up with the changing system so now want everybody to fail.
45. Accelerationism is not about what we should do. It's about what is happening.
Conclusion:
The video was three times longer than it needed to be. The first two thirds were a bore to get through. The last third was the most interesting part. The primary point of the video is just to explain what accelerationism is, its sub types, and that we are possibly going through accelerationism today, how capitalism might or may not destroy itself, and the initial and famous people involved with the school of thought about accelerationism.
I want 35 minutes of my life back.
5.5/10 Video quality.

I've heard women quote this book like it's the freaking Bible, and be like "my love language is acts of services and gifts..." and I remember thinking "wow that's kind of convenient"
