Long story short, he was a stocker and driver. They said they let him go because of cut backs back in March, well today he went up there to drop of his friends keys (he left them at his house last night) and they had 3 new people there, all much taller than him. We both believe he was let go because of his height. Almost everyone (aside from a manager and a few women) that work there are over 5'10. Thoughts?
So everyone everywhere is supporting gay and lesbian couples. I am starting to see it in comercials even where there are gay or lesbian couples in ads. So why is something like this being forced under acceptance but a shorter man dating a taller woman is still okay to joke about and look at like it is wrong!? Last time I checked, a penis works the same way in the vagina of a 5'2 woman as it does a 5'10 woman. Gays/Lesbians can't say their equipment works the same in their relationships. I am not trying to offend anyone but I think it is bullshit.
A girl in my anthropology class was talking about how all dictators in history were short and how they are generally unfit leaders. She even made some sick jokes about how short guys should be phased out. The convo went like this:
Girl: Short guys overcompensate too much that's why all dictators are short Me: What about Saddam Hussein, he was 6'3 Girl: Well that's modern times. When is the last time you've seen a short AMERICAN leader who has done anything good for humanity Me: Martin Luther King Jr was only 5'6 Girl: Eww. No he wasn't. He was like super tall. All great leaders are tall Me: Pulls out this picture on my laptop Girl: Quiet for 30 seconds...w..w...well, people were shorter back then anyway, so he couldn't be that short... No way....
there are more muscle/meat heads that acct this way than shorter men. This is just one of those comments that makes me shake my head because of the immaturity.
What are your thoughts on the whole Fat Acceptance movement and how can we use what they did to make people less harsh and discriminating towards ups shorter men/women? (Short Acceptance)
"No, the major strength that "Fat Acceptance" (FA) has over "Short Acceptance?" (SA) is that FA has directly questioned and rejected the value judgment associated with their stigma. That is, being fat has been thought of as a bad thing since the start of the modern era at least. But this was never an issue because everyone agreed that being fat was ugly, unhealthy, and undesired. It didn't become an issue until someone stood up and rejected the social convention. Until someone actually rejected that idea and said "fat is not ugly - it's beautiful; fat is not unhealthy - one can be healthy at any size; and fat is not undesirable - we are proud to be fat." Once that happened, there was a fucking problem. Now there is a social issue at contention and the FA movement was born."

I did when I was younger but it wasn't jsut for my height issues. I was just not a happy teen. Height or not, I don't think it would have made a huge difference.
I know people of both sexes of all different heights and sizes that seak help because it is too much.
Take a look. This guy was retweeting to show how ignorant and childish people really are. Most are women. I am sorry but most women are more shallow than men.
