Just turned 40. This is it.

One one hand it's a little depressing, but on the other hand relieving. I watch these gray hairs coming in and see all of the people I grew up with starting families, many of their kids pre-teens and some full grown. I am fortunate. I have been successful career wise, but do know that my height played a huge part in my struggles in dating and advancing in my field through my 20s and 30s.

On the other hand, the divorces and related financial hits that my friends have experienced I have been protected from, all because women don't find me attractive enough to want to partner with.

How ‘GMA’ hides George Stephanopoulos’ ‘little-boyish mini-legs’

Article Here: How GMA Hides George Stephanopoulos' Little-Boysih Mini Legs 

Disgusting piece of filth of an article, but thought I'd share it here.

Fran Lebowitz said Bloomberg is rich and horrible because he is short

Quote From Article:

 

"I think it's very important that we don't ever have a mayor this rich or this short. The richness comes from the shortness, this is what I believe. I believe every single person suffers for what happens to boys on playgrounds. So I really believe that a short boy gets bullied by taller boys, or ignored by them, or doesn't have the same status as they do, they grow up, they get very rich, to kind of get back at these tall boys, and then everyone suffers for this. I like de Blasio for many reasons, but his height is very important."

Miley Cyrus making "heightism" a little more acceptable among females

not that they needed any more influence, but she recently bragged about her boyfriend being above 5 foot 9 among other traits, no doubt females see this and they think, "god, I can not settle for a guy under 5 foot 9 if that is what it takes to have a real man!" of course I am sure Miley and those who are like her are the first to call for a males head if they make any disparaging comment about a female and her appearence, but of course short guys, and also guys who do not have a good "dick game" are fair people to demonize in the feminist culture today

Despite What They Tell You, Americans Are NOT Getting Taller

https://priceonomics.com/where-are-the-tallest-people-in-the-world/

Came across this article which pretty much sums up what those who are aware already know. While height in the Eurpoean low countries has been increasing over the last 50-100 years, height here in the U.S.A. has stagnated. No matter what crappy anecdotes your younger colleagues are telling you ("All of the guys in my freshmen classes are 6' on average), Americans now are the same height or in some cases shorter than 50 years ago and no, "immigration is not brining it down".

Interesting facts:

  • The U.S. ranks 40th for height and height has been in steady decline since the 50s. (Graph http://imgur.com/a/PCyMn)
  • Height worldwide stagnated since the 70s. (Graph http://imgur.com/a/DYMmU)
  • Researchers believe that the Dutch have reached the limits of human height
  • Immigrants are NOT bringing American height averages down. White Americans Males have stalled at 5'9.5 (CDC)
  • Canadians are taller than Americans
  • Americans were almost the tallest country in the world in 1900 (117 years ago FYI)

Comebacks for height insults.

I don't get a lot of height jokes, but I have a colleague at work who is two inches shorter than me and not a day goes by where someone doesn't insult him for his height. Whenever they insult him he just stays quiet and laughs it off, but I can tell he is uncomfortable.

 

Whenever someone sends a joke my way, I destroy them by sizing them up and picking out something they'd be insecure about. I'm not insecure for being short, but I bet the people who insult me when they do it assume so. 

 

So what comebacks do you have and use? This should be a useful and comprehensive list.

Have humans gotten statistically taller? (Hormones/Diet)

Sounds crazy, but when I go to stores, I usually shop for S/P sizes. The other day I went into a vintage store and medium sizes fit me perfectly - gloves, pants, shirts - you name it. The perfect fit surprised the hell out of me.

This leads me to ask. Were men significantly shorter in the 1910s - 1930s?

Could that jerk Reuben Foster have made it if he were 5'6?

The jerk was released from the 49ers on Domestic Violence charges and it left me wondering. What would the headlines look like if he were just 5'6 instead of 6'1?
