Bespoke shoes by Riccardo "Freccia" Bestetti
This guy is the truth if you're looking for bespoke shoes (customized). If you're looking to be on your A game for shoes, you need to get in contact with this guy. Like, if you can't find great shoes in your size, this is the guy to know.
There is a thread over in StyleForum that talks about this guy in Amsterdamn. His prices are actually affordable:

Bruno Mars is the best short songwriter/entertainer since Billy Joel
Need I say more? I didn't think he was 5'4 until I checked out the Gallery here. |

Less than 3% of CEOs are under 5'8. Who are they?
According the Wikipedia's entry on Height Discrimination, only a few CEOs are under 5'8 (not surprisingly). Who are they? I know the CEO of Goldman Sachs like about 5'4 or something (there is even a post here that talks about that). |

Best cars for short guys?
To all of the guys out there, I'm 5'6 and live in New York City. What cars do you suggest as being best for a guy my size? I've checked out a load of cars in the last month or so. I know the stereotype is that short guys drive big cars to overcompensate, but the last thing I'd ever want to drive is a huge car. Add to that, living in the city, space is premium, so if I bought a big car, I'd probably never get parking! The criterea of a car for me would be $28,000 or less, preferably roomy enough for my size, but compact enough to fit anywhere. Power seats are a must, leather interior when all possible. I would rather drive a coupe, but if you really recommend a sedan and can tell why, then I will consider it. Some of the cars I've checked out were the Nissam Altima coupe ($10K or less used), the Honda Civic EX-L, the Acura RSX (they don't make it anymore, but some of the later models look great and do have a leather interior). There is also the Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta (they don't make it in a Coupe, boooo), and then some of the older BMW coupes which are really nice, but I am afraid of maintanance costs. Any of you guys have any suggestions? What would you recommend and why? I'd prefer a late model, but not necessarily new (2007+) |

Any of you have taller gym buddies and do similar workouts?
I ask this because being a smaller guy myself, I've managed to put on the same amount of muscle and look more brolic than my gym buddy who is about 6'2. We've both been working out for nearly a year and I look more like I've worked out than he does. |

Dating a woman who is 3 inches taller...
I recently was asked out by a woman who is 5'10. Her height doesn't bother me. She says she thought I was cute and so I gave it a go. I don't like that she doesn't want to wear heels so we can "look right". What is the point of asking me out if you aren't confident enough to be out in public with me as you are? It isn't my style to change a woman, so why does she need to conform? Just wanted to vent. |

Dating is all about style folks...
I'm 27 and 5'7. I am never short on dates (pun intended). The key is being confident in one self and not letting anything get to you. If someone doesn't want to talk to you because of your height, let them go. It will suck being turned down for your height, but it really is their loss. Confidence doesn't get rid of heightism, but allowing yourself to be in control of your own emotions is one way to defeat it from within. And don't be afraid to speak your mind either. |

Academic thesis on heightism
Thought I would put this here while I remember. Geoffrey Arnold just linked to it on reddit and I hadn't seen it or anything like it before.Possibly he may be along to give some background on it and its author. I haven't read it as yet myself. Hopefully this thread will remind me to do so. |

I am the resident heightism crime fighter
Hi. I'm Jeff. I joined this site because I heard of it over on r/short. I am a heightism activist, so most of my contributions will be for that purpose. I am 26 years old and am from new jersey. |

Woman sues in heightism case and wins $215,000
Pretty interesting case where a woman sues for not being able to receive full time work in the Sherrif's department because of her 4'7 stature. I think it is interesting that she said she wanted to stand up for other short statured females. Take a look at the the article 'Short-statured' former female deputy receives $215K settlement from Saginaw County |

Looks Like I'm First! New Here!
Hey everyone! I'm new to this place but have been lurking for a little while now out of curiosity. The concept behind AEL is new and awesome. Finally there is a place where I can talk about things that few people in my life would understand! With that out of the way now, here is a little bit about me. *24 *From New York (Where are my New Yorkers @?) * r/short on Reddit bought me here. I guess that's it. I'm horrible at intros, so hopefully I did just fine |
