Maybe all of you hear can inform where on our birth certificate our future adult height is listed. 

Just because you're with someone doesn't mean they respect you, or that you're their top choice. 

Irish woman in 1972 making fun of shorter British soldier in the first photo.

In the second photo, he threatens her (but does not hurt her) with a hammer.

It's restricted due to the on-screen assault. Not defending the wanna-be gangster who attacked him in any way, but the comments on the video are a heightism and height insult gold mine.

Most of the comments are along the lines of "You're going to kill your genes!" and anything else to slam this short guy. So many saying she's "so funny". How?

The women there never, ever, ever insist that tall men with garbage personalities have them because they are tall. Never, ever, ever. 

I want to make it clear I don't mind loosing to men who have worked for their achievements. If a guy who has put more work in, is more qualified, funnier, takes more risks gets the girl/job/promotion/more respect than me; fair enough. I am not going to be pretend to be a saint and say I don't envy such men but when a man earns something on merit, it is just. To beat them or match them I just have to work harder, take more risks myself.

However they is a category of man who winds me up no-end, I will illustrate with an example. Guy at work who has a rich parents who sent him to an expensive school, he didn't work, so failed his exams. He ended up a a second rate uni and failed there as will. This guy has had every advantage in life and has done nothing with it. He does make up for that with charm, any talents outside work, he is a complete mediocrity. Yet he has a knockout stunning girlfriend. This doesn't make sense till you discover he is 6'2" and that is all that seems to matter.

Another guy ended up with equally stunning women and once again he has done nothing to deserve it. He has a low status job, with no prospects. He is not exceptionally smart or funny, he doesn't even workout. The guy is 30 years old and looks middle aged. It doesn't matter, he is 6' 4" and thanks to that, he can cruise though life on the easy setting.

I find these men so frustrating because I know I am better than them. In every field of life I beat them. I have a better job than them, I went to a better uni, am more qualified and have more talent than they do. I am also in far better shape but none of that matters because they are above the magic 6' mark they beat me without even having to do a thing.

I'm not talking about your typical short jokes, but rather the blatant disrespect mean-spritied "jokes" or off-the-cuff comments directed at you to belittle you or convey inferiority relative to everyone else. These are the type of comments that someone would make and then play it off as "a joke". I've read on other forums (reddit for one) where they advise you to "embrace" the humor and "accept that you are short". I think this is misinformed.

By self deprecating you invite more ridicule. I usually will tell someone straight up that I don't find jokes like that humorous, it's like bullying or body shaming which aren't welcome in professional settings. I will give them a serious look too. Especially in the work place, once you give off the idea that this type of behavior is acceptable, it will happen again and again and again.
