    “it’s not homophobia, it’s misogyny!” is not the defense of the above comment you think it is.

      Bruh. I meant that you assumed that cocksucking is exclusively done by gay men. So it’s actually neither. Calling someone a motherfucker doesn’t mean that they actually have sex with their mothers. Insults like these are usually detached from their literal meaning.

      Improve your reading comprehension skills. English is literally my third language.

        The insult “cocksucker” did not fall out of a coconut tree. It exists in the context of all that has come before it, which in this case is decades of being the go-to insult of homophobes.
