    It implies that for a man, sucking cock (a legitimate sexual act for any gender) is an insult because that would make him gay. So Homophobic.

      imo the pejorative connotation of that word, and homophobia generally, is ultimately rooted in misogyny

      "always has been" meme with "wait, it's all about maintaining the patriarchy?"

      ok?

      So what if i just argued that “cocksucker” just meant that you would suck someones cock if you got you something. I.E. you’re easily bribed/manipulated. As far as i know, that’s how most people use it.

      That’s literally the implication like 99% of the time. If you wanted to insult someone for being gay, you would just call them a faggot or something lmao. No need to mince words at that point.
