Do women's attitudes change if they have a short son?
Would their heightism persist? What would they tell their son if they end up being small? |

It was not your lack of nutrition which made you short
I often hear tall people suggest that short people would've grown taller if they had better nutrition. If your grew up in the West and were not starving or suffering from severe malnutrition as a child, then you are the height you are supposed to be and are at the mercy of your genetics. My brother was a horrible eater, very picky and went sometimes a day or two here and there without eating. He ate constant junk when he did. He is 6'3. Me? I ate well throughout my younger years and am this height.

What is considered short in your country?
I notice on a lot of other sites, you have 5'9 guys crying about "how short they are". Like seriously? Then I hear that in the Netherlands, the average height is 6'1. What is "short" in your country? In the U.S., I'd like to think it's under 5'9. |

Is evolution making people taller... or shorter?
I found a Scientific American article that describes while some data have shown an increase in height over a period of time, it does not seem like a lasting trend, and the reasons are not due to evolutionary pressure favoring taller men. In fact, sometimes shorter heights are favored by evolution.

Are Americans more heightist since most have German ancestry?
2/3 of Americans are of German, Dutch or Scandinavian ancestry? Is this way America is so obsessed with height, because they bought their culture from there to here? |

Humans out of Africa were shorter helping them survive Ice Age
According to this study in the New York Times, humans migrating out of Africa had genes which made them shorter which in turn helped them survive the Ice Age. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/06/science/they-were-shorter-and-at-risk-for-arthritis-but-they-survived-an-ice-age.html? |

Are incels generally shorter than average?
Was reading a post on reddit about "incels" (men who are involuntarily celibate) and how they are generally shorter than average. But by rummaging through most of that sub-reddit, many of those guys self-report as average height or tall. This leads me to believe that most of these self diagnosed incels aren't incels because of their height, but because they are under average in facial attractiveness, have weak physiques or can't socialize. What's your take on this? Any of you consider yourselves as "incels"? |

Why is evolution used to justify heightism but not racism and sexism?
Don't social scientists agree that racism evolved from the need to identify outsiders and protect the tribe and sexism to protect women as they were pregnant and while babies were young to keep the species going? So why is it when dating, I can't say that I don't find women of a certain race attractive and then say it's because of evolution or say that I prefer docile more traditional women? Wouldn't you say those are more important than height when choosing a partner? |

new growth plate regeneration technology will make you taller
Before you know it, new technology will be able to make us taller even well after puberty. Research is underway to regenerate growth plate tissue and is showing promising results: https://health.clevelandclinic.org/2014/02/regrowing-growth-plates-a-fix-for-kids-injuries/ Once upon a time, if you ended up short after puberty, you were short forever. Pretty soon it won't have to be that way. |

Short and Bald
I am currently 30 years old and I'm 5'6. I began loosing my hair at 22. I know that it is what it is, but every now and then, I do become a little insecure about it. Who else is short and have the bald gene? |

How did you feel when you knew you stopped growing?
How did you know when you stopped growing and how did you feel about it? Any reality checks, disappointment or resentment? Did you care? Did it have a major impact on you at that point? |

Height Supremacists who insist biology? Why don't men want tall women?
If you think women want tall men for biological and instinctual reasons, then why don't men wan't super tall women? Taking it a step further, why don't women wan't super tall men only? Most NBA players are well over 6'5. Shouldn't women be rejecting all men who are not super tall? |

Anyone come across taller people who think they earned their height?
Every time I go to a family function or a reunion type of event, the subject of how short I am compared to others comes up and annoys me to no end. While I brush most of it off, there is always one idiot type who preaches to me about how I should've slept more, ate more, exercised more and that it's "my fault" that I'm short. All of those things I'm accused of not doing, I did, but I know very well that I am short because my family is short overall. Anyone come across these ignorant asshats who think they "earned" their height? |
