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.

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.

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?

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.)

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?

Hello everyone,

This my first post.

I am lucky enough to have met a wonderful lady sometime ago and I now have two children (boy and a girl).  As they will soon be starting school I went to meet other parents.  I couldn't help but notice that not only was I the shortest guy (not very surprising)  but for all the couples that were there,  there was not one guy that was at least eye level with the woman.  All the men were a few inches taller.  Not one!  For some reason I found this to very disconcerting.

Anyway, I am secretly worried.  I've not discussed this anyone.  My kids will probably be taller than me when they start high school or have friends at my eye level.  I am worried that they will be too embarrassed to be with me because I am very short.  I am really scared.  How to deal with this?  Any ideas?     

They will talk all day about women and men are equal, but then will turn around and say how they "prefer" (require) that their men be tall, make as much or more money and be physically stronger (than them and other men). After reading that Jezebel article, I made this meme, because it is accurate. 

While we're at it, let's do a poll. Do you think Feminists truly care about erasing gender norms?

When I look at actors like Daniel Radcliffe or Macaulay Culkin, I think of failed artists in the sense that when all of the cuteness disappeared, there were no roles for them. I'm talking about actors of our generation. Tom Cruise, Al Pacino and Dustin Hoffman are from a different era where the average height for men was a tad lower. Tom Cruise played lead roles through most of his career, but he is borderline short.

See Radcliffe, he played a lead role in a romantic comedy. It seems like that's all that's left for short adult actors, movies that play up dumb stereotypes of short guys being buffoons (Ben Stiller, David Spade, Martin, etc).
