I more read it implying that the barbarian was ridiculously hung, and the mere sight of it is enough to do damage. So not a dick, but his dick in particular. Which feels on brand for a barb.
Yeah, the theme is that you can never see your (platonic) friend again without also recalling his glorious megacock.
Sure, but if the wizard were a woman, the joke wouldn't work, because no one would expect her eyes to bleed and she wouldn't "need therapy" simply from seeing a dick. Those parts only "work" because it's a dude seeing another dudes dick, and that part feels sus
Is it homophobic that I don't want to see anyones dick?
No, but if you think seeing one will make your eyes bleed and give you trauma, then it's a bit more than not wanting to see someones dick...
I don't think theres anything that would make my eyes bleed just by looking at it. Maybe itd be different if we lived in a world with magic, where someone insulting me physically hurts.
And yeah, seeing my friends dick wouldnt exactly traumatize me, but it would definitely be something i wouldve dramatically preferred didnt happen. I think the mental damage would be comparable to stubbing my toe, which is at least a d4.
If the dick's too big, I bet even women would be traumatised at the sight. Also, getting mental damage from being forced to look at dicks happens in real life, as well. That's why indecent exposure and unsolicited dick pics are a no no.
