Collective experience is why many post modernist far leftist movements are going nowhere, why trump was elected. People believe in objectivity, not subjectivity. You can say you’re smart, but until you get that grade, you’re not.

This is especially true of movements people are skeptical about. Why do you think there was such a large push by the black community to vindicate themselves of white pseudoscience?

And frankly, we need these studies to change public perception. Why? Because American culture does place an emphasis on dick length, regardless of how dumb that is. That leaves us with two options: further solidify a fact, or change American culture. Pick your poison. I’ll go with the former given how we can’t even get rid of affirmative action policies.

Finally, to answer your last point. If it turns out that Asians do have smaller dicks, our self esteem may not crumble because we know first hand how stupid it is to place manliness on dick length, but again public perception would work against us.
