The 'promise land' for the short man?
Hello everyone, I've been thinking; is there any place on the Earth that doesn't really scorn us? Any place that does not stigmatize the short man? With those asked, I have made a fair conclusion. There is such a place. You know where that is? I believe the promise land for us is Japan. Why you may ask? Well, look at their culture, it's mostly based on anything 'chibi' or 'cute' or 'nimble' or 'small', which they embrace! Look at their anime! Notice how the main character is usually a short male?! Notice the history of Japan? They developed a small nation into a relatively advanced superpower; the point I'm making from this, is the notion, "small packages come with big things", which intertwines with Japan's culture. They are a welcoming society to a certain extent, and I believe that we are more welcomed there. -unknown |

Does anyone know where the shorter man is welcomed?
After looking at heightism on Wikipedia, it is shown that there are some places that regulate height discrimination; however, are there any other places for which the shorter man can migrate to? Is there any place in the world where height is not looked at in terms of careers and women? I'm curious, what are your thoughts on some parts of Europe? or Japan? |

Short Men, Overweight Women Face Lower Pay
of course, as everyone knows, unlike height someone's weight is for the most part under one's control via diet and exercise. i find one of the comments to the article also very interesting: " Even though I am over 60 and therefore short of options, I will not date a man under 5'10". And this must be the reason. Taken as a group, I just don't gell with them. They sort of overcompensate in other not very nice ways. I couldn't put my finger on it -- but maybe now I get it. Also, other parts of them tend to be smaller. Sorry but true, and size does matter. Agreed genetics and racial characteristics (i.e. Hispanic, Asian, Caucasian) play a role, but I often wonder if the diet and nutrition of the parents plays a part. That would also affect intelligence and other attributes." http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/03/10/short-men-overweight-women-face-lower-pay/?_r=0 |

Maybe Feminist Thought Could Aid Us.
Please note: I am actually not a male-feminist. I am just an observer. I try to be unbiased as possible. I found this video interesting. Let me know what you think about it along with feminist thought. |

Is heightism worse than racism when it comes to dating?
White men tend to have it the easiest in the dating world when it comes to dating for various reasons. If you take the average Asian male, however, they tend to be below 5'7. Do women swear off Asian men all together because of this? I know some white, black, ect men in America who only date Asian women but I never heard of the same deal the other way around. |

Jealousy seems to effect taller people...
This picture sums up how people act when someone has what they don't. This dude may be on the shorter side but he has the body many men dream of having.

Heightism in Scandinavia
Hi,
I had the perception that women in Europe were less heightist than in North America. Lately I have been reading that women in the Scandinavian countries hate short men and won't date them. By short I mean 5'5 -5'7 range. I know average height for men there is like six feet. I thought I would ask if any short men in the range I mentioned do well with the ladies there are or are we like pariahs? |

Would feminism help the short man?
Just a thought that came to mind. What do you guys think? Would it help alleviate the prejudice against us? Would it change the culture in a way that gives more acceptance? Share your thoughts in the poll and the comment section. I'll be posting my thoughts later as I'm currently working on a research proposal. (Please keep in mind there are different definitions and connotations of feminism.)

Why don't we start a Facebook page?
You know, to fight against height discrimination? I think it would be something were doing. I don't now how to set one of them up or I would do it myself. What do you all think? |

This is really irking me.
You know, all this say that the short man makes minimal financial gain compared to the taller man really provokes me. So, I wanted to ask: What are career do you have? or What are you pursuing? -unknown |

Being a short man in America
I read this blog post and wanted to share a sad truth from it... In the 23 years that have passed since then, I’ve come to two major conclusions about being a short man in North American society and they are thus: It sucks and no one wants to hear you complain about it.
