What's up Short Kingz! I love that a site like this exists. It's so thorough.

I'm from NYC. I do not struggle with dating per se, though I also don't claim that I am some mega chad or have some huge ego.

I'm here to talk mainly clothes, and the occasional heightism that I experience. 

Look forward to being a part of this board. 

Hi everyone,

so I am 6' 1" but I still feel like I identify as a short king. My family is all 6'5" + (women included) and I am great friends with many many short kingz and I've developed a lot of solidarity with the community. Let me know if I would be welcome in this community, really not trying to stir any trouble! But maybe this can be a great space to move our community discussion forward. Thanks in advance! Looking forward to connecting with some fellow kingz

Confidence is key,

Tommy

New to the site and thought I would introduce myself.

Name is John and I attend college in New York City. 

Hi all. This new site update looks AMAZING! It's almost like an entirely new site! Just thought I'd reintroduce myself. 

Hi Community!

I am not only a short guy but also a light guy: 55 kg on the good days. I do realize it is hard for women to feel sexually attracted to us given their (rather common, not everyone's like that blablabla I KNOW) instinct to seek out a more protective, dominant and reassuring figure for a mate. To be fair, I sometimes feel insecure myself knowing I'd get smashed in a fight against a taller man. This is probably why I turned out to be a rather agreeable person. I cannot really afford to upset other people too much. Cheers if you can relate :)

FAQ

1/ How to make up for my minimalistic stature?

- Social skills: be interesting, entertaining, empathetic and good at talking. Wait.. it's the same advice people give to ugly people, LOL!

- Bulk up. Hit that gym. Gain mass, so there's more of you. Take care of yourself. Be handsome, at least, Goddamit!

2/ Is the short man an endangered species?

- Yes, I do think so. People are getting taller and taller as a result of both mating selection and increased access to high-calories food. Go check out the kids in your local high school: all of them are tall, it's crazy!

3/ What hope is there for us, then?

- On the downside, Tinder gives women unprecedented access to a massive pool of highly desirable men (aka tall.. ok ok it's fine, I'm trolling) to casually hook-up with, in an increasingly sexually liberated society. As consequence, your regular 5/10 next-door guy is getting left out... and cannot talk about it because as middle-class Caucasian he already has the better end of the stick, right?

- On the upside, attractive sex robots powered by AI will be mainstream in a couple years. I can't wait to see how this is going to give rise to a new class of sexually satisfied MGTOWs and... Okay, this deviates too much from the original topic. In short (ho ho) let me know if you want to connect. Happy to exchange and meet you all!

Hello everyone! I am from Orlando Florida and am active in fighting stereotypes of short men and women in the media as a way to reverse bigoted stereotypes of us short statured people. I am 54 yo  and 5'4". Married twice ( first wife passed away ). Looking forward to meeting others on ateyelevel. 

Just joined today and wanted to say hello.  Never thought about looking for a community of other short people before.  Pretty amazed I never thought about it before considering I've been 5'3 since high school.  Anyways, glad I found this site and Happy New Year everyone.

Hello short guys. 

Im 48 years old and am 5' 5". I have gotten depressed lately about my height after a jackass insulted me in front of my girlfriend in a bar saying "is she with you?? No way!!" And laughing to his friends. He was like 6' 5" and it was obviously an insult about my height.  I just calmy said "yes she is" and walked by but it through me off that night and all night I was insecure about my height and what people were thinking. It really is a helpless feeling. I started feeling insecure with my girlfriend but played it off. I started comparing my height to all others, men and woman, and found most men towered over me, and most woman were taller as well in heels. I literally felt like I was standing in a hole and everyone was looking down on me (figuratively and literally). Its been three days and I cant shake this feeling. 

Anyone else feel like this and how can I learn to get over feeling insecure about my height? 

Thanks for any thoughts.
