Is there a right or wrong way to hold a cactus? Is it disrespectful to the cactus? Let's talk about it.
I've seen some women, and sometimes men, on the sub holding a Cactus a certain way and some of you completely lose your minds. I ask, why? Why do you let something as silly and simple as a different way of holding a cactus ruin your day? It's gonna be okay! You'll get over it!
"The cactus shouldn't be sexualized." Sure, I agree that the cactus shouldn't be sexualized for marketing or sales promotions, leave that shit on your websites or put it on r/OnlyCacs … But the cactus… They're phallic. No matter what you say, they look like pricks. There's even a cactus referred to as "the peen cactus". I understand the user preference, but why let it get to you so bad you gotta make some weird statement like "you're being creepy and this isn't funny"… Elaborate, please, as to why it makes you uncomfortable.
The cactus I'm holding is a TBM-A, notoriously a long dong. Any other post I see about it references a peen at some point. Nobody bats an eye, but as soon as someone holds it differently, some people lose their minds. Why?
I'm not angry, I'm genuinely concerned.
What about the way I'm holding my cactus makes you feel like the world is ending? 🤷🏻♂️
"People won't take you seriously!" Oh no, whatever shall I do? Cope, I guess. Not much else you can do. Live my life? Sounds like a good idea.
I'm interested to know what you think about this topic.
P.S. I'm ready for downvotes, but please keep your anger to yourself, and don't harass me in my dms (or anyone else for that matter) about this shit, it's not that serious.

You can hold it however you’d like , as long as you take em to dinner first.
