It's good for making the owner forget they have a micropenis for a short while.

Could we stop using "micropenis" and the likes as insults? There are many men with small dicks who aren't insecure assholes.

Agreed. Moving away from body shaming, here are a couple of names for such a huge vehicle: Pavement Princess, Emotional Support Vehicle.

Just to be pedantic and nit picky, if we want to move away from insulting body features I feel that moving to insulting gender isn't a great thing to move to. Pavement Princess as a pejorative is mostly relying on our assumptions of princesses, end by extension the female side of the species, being delicate and useless.

Just a thought, I've used the term myself, though I wish I could find a better one. ESV might be the one I go to in the future.

Good point, I'll stick with ESV instead.
