Where are all of the women who supposedly "don't care" about height?
Whenever in conversation, I am quickly told by non short men that there are "plenty" of women who prefer short men or who do not factor in height when it comes to attractiveness.
Good example is when on break from a meeting at work a few weeks back, a few men were expressing how difficult dating was for them despite being pretty open in terms of their preferences. This was met with variations of "I only like tall and fit men" from the women at our table, followed by "It's good that there's someone for everyone" when they realized that only "tall and fit" came out of their mouths to describe their perfect partner (i.e. cleaning up their mess).
So a friend of mine insists that height is not that big of a deal and is dismissing the many studies done and is instead collecting her own data based on observation. She wants me to do the same. To actually record how many same height couples and couples where the man is shorter day to day for about a month. It's pretty obvious that I will see more couples where the man is taller, but the point is that there are "plenty" of women who don't mind a shorter man.
Want to play this game with me? Answer the poll above after about a month or any period of time to confirm or dismiss my friend's claim. I am in the belief that it is stacked up against is in the dating realm. What do you think?
I was into music and rugby and had a lot of friends so was considered one of the "cool ones". I did get teased for my height, but it was more like ribbing and not a horror story. I also had a few girlfriends. How about you all. I've heard some horror stories from other guys in my height range, so what was it like for you?
What People Need to Realize about Feminism, Heightism and Short Men
So a lot of you seem perplexed about the whole ideal of Feminism and shorter men. I am hearing many questions that go: "If feminism is for the empowered woman, why does she need a taller man?" or "How does heightism affect woman?"
I'm going to shed light on these issues.
Feminism nowadays is striving for MORE ADVANTAGES for the woman. Feminism does NOT help the shorter men; in fact, it's more harmful. Why? Because it empowers the woman to do whatever she wants, and that is to go for TALLER men. Feminism is harmful for the shorter man.
Heightism affects woman in a POSITIVE way. In fact, I'd argue that heightism is being accentuated by woman RATHER than men. When a woman receives "amicable" acts of heightism towards her, such as a pat on the head or treated like a child, please keep in mind she likes it. A lot of woman nowadays follow this ideal of being cute and feminine.
All in all, the institutionalized, contemporary feminism and heightism affects the woman POSITIVELY and the shorter men NEGATIVELY.
I am digging the category choices. I just noticed it. I was going to ask how to use them but I see it is at the bottom when you are making a post. haha
