Since so many people seem to have trouble with their Dean Winchester-to-English translations recently, I thought I’d offer my services in the form of a small dictionary.
Dean Winchester is known to use projection as a psychological defense mechanism. Projection is a means of relieving psychological tension by projecting unwanted characteristics of oneself to others – most often on his brother. Dean Winchester has displayed a propensity for projection ever since the Pilot episode. It is one of his most enduring characteristics.
No chick flick moments! = I’m insecure about my masculinity
Dude, could you be more gay? = I’m insecure about my sexuality
You’re a red-headed woman = I’m insecure about my masculinity
You’re Lois Lane = I’m Lois Lane
Angelina Jolie? Brad Pitt? = I would so do Brad Pitt, dude
Sam wears women’s underwear = I have tried on Rhonda Hurley’s underwear
Is this [bra] yours? = I wear women’s underwear
Sam Winchester cries his way through sex = I totally get emotional during sex
Sam Winchester takes keeps a ruler by the bed… = I feel insecure about my masculinity
I was too busy having sex with women = I am such a nerd
Let’s not go all geek on this stuff, okay? = I am such a nerd
We’ll braid Sam’s hair = I’m insecure about my masculinity because I’m in love with you
Or, hey, how about what you did to Penny Markle in the sixth grade? = I did something real shitty to Penny Markle in sixth grade
You’re awkward and weird = I feel awkward and weird
Real men don’t drink from cups this small = I feel insecure about my masculinity
For the ladies. Or the fellas. I don’t judge = You’re a bisexual douchebag = I’m a bisexual douchebag
Well? Come to apologize? = I really hurt you and I don’t even know how to begin apologizingthis isn’t fandom making this up the narrative goes out of its way as early as episode three to say this
True that. And Carver and Dabb’s episodes especially have taken it seriously as a psychological condition, not just used it for gags.
