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!

I don't always agree with this guy, but truer words have never been spoken when it applies to men, and these "looks" should also include height.

There are portions of this video where he goes off on tangents which the video could have done without, but overall the message could not be any clearer and on point. 

Being short is not a death sentence. Non-select men just have to up their value in other areas and looks while are certainly a positive for us guys, it matters less and less, especially ~30 and beyond. 

Amen. Single, childless men have no excuse not to work a lot of hours and stack. 

Good morning all! My name is Andy. I am the VP of Mergers and Acquisition at my east coast based firm. I was promoted six times at my company and manage a staff of thirty five people. I have a JD and a Bachelor of Science in Business. I am one of 5 executives at my company and am one of if not the shortest! 

I am happy that a place where confident and successful short men can collaborate and share experiences and tips! This is a nice and necessary space in contrast to some of the negative leaning sites on the web. We do exist! Special shoutout to whoever created this space and the people on this board! 

Or come up with a name for this category? This site is supposed to be for successful short men. Posts which feature constant whining or a "we just can't get ahead" mindset hurt this site's brand in my opinion. There are enough sites where short men who aren't woke or figured out life yet, whine and complain like little kids.

One guy asked for a refund 3 times by e-mail. This is the response he got."get a life you loser." 
  
Those products guaranteed to make u grow 3-6 inches after using within 3 months. All u have to do is apply it on ur back and neck and behind legs area. Also use a towel to do 5 min stretching daily. They ask u to have a government doctor sign a form and proof u didn't grow if u want a refund. By the time u spend money on a government doctor to sign u'll pay more than the product itself.  
  
They ask u to use it for 60 days at least, since that's the time u won't be able to do a chargeback on ur credit card. Most products come from canada a few from the US. The substance is like oil and random stuff probably that u can get in the house. 
  
We made their BMW's payment for 4 months by buying those products.Keep buying them and u'll give them retirement. I wonder if they 'll ever go to jail? will they keep having success and earn a good income like that? 
  
In the US i guess if ur a good scammer u can get rich quick. retire in 5 years is possible. 

Hi All,

I just discovered this forum recently. I am 31 years old, and about 2 to 3 years ago i just discovered that women are not interested in dating short men. This somehow explained a big mistery that had always gone through my mind: the reason why i have always been single and have never had a girlfriend. I have gone through very tough times when we talk about dating. In university, i have taken lots of winds; all guys were dating (even thr short ones but slightly taller than me). Up to that point i could have never imagined that the height was something to blame. I was putting a lot of effort to date but was always unsuccessful. Theresult was quite catastrophic, as i ended up doing my first time with an escort girl. I wish i could have offered myself a better experience. But that day i remember i was hesitating a lot; i was 21. i said to myself at some point it has to happen, and was hoping to get more confidence after that; i did get confidence after that. Moreover i worked with a psychologue; eventually i started seeing some girls, but realised that this was not lasting long; never more than one month. At some point i dated a girl for actually 4 months but as we got really close to each other emotionally, she said to me that she didn't see me as a boyfriend. I multiplied short term dating (below one month) until the age of around 29, when i then started suspecting my height as a possible issue. by searching on the web i then confirmed that this is the main reason why i have never had a girlfriend; i have never had a girl saying to me that she loves me; even some of the girls i was seeing, i notice that they were only confortable meeting me in the house; we never went out in public together, etc. The truth is that this is a killer on the mental strength. I don't know how to handle this; every other attempt ends with a negative outcome. The reason why i was dating some girls at some point is because i had a nice car. Now i have gone back to uni to do another degree and i am confident that in 2 to 3 years after my degree i will be making around $300K per year. I am an intelligent guy and am studying at the best school in the world for what i do. But then it will be strange to have girls around you if you know they are there for money? My question is when you know that without this money girls are not interested in you, how can you handle that, for someone who wants to build a family and have kids?

People in my family, including my mum, have been making fun of me because i have never presented a girl to my parents; i have never had the opportunity to bring a girl home. My mum has been pushing me hard to get into a relationship and to have a kid, but when i tell her that my height happens to be a problem she doesn't believe me. I am only child. My aunties are making fun of me, and often i feel alone; i have no one to discuss this problem with. It's very difficult to be in that situation.

Note that i have verified this assumption many times and it turns out to be true that if you are a man under a certain height it's a NO GO, no matter what other skills you have. Some times i was even so close to finally land a girlfriend; so much close, but despite everything the girl still hesitated so long and ended up not giving me a chance. A lot of girls told me that it is true; a lot of girls have turned me quickly down as well in bars and clubs, saying that i am same height as them and i am not tall enough for them. I always feel like the last one in my group of friends; all have or have had relationships but i am the most mysterious one, whom people have never seen presenting a girl to friends or family. The least we can say is that this is very tough. And it is more frustrating if your parents do not understand you.

I would like to hear from short men who are maybe more than 35 or 40 years old, about their experience? How do things changes when people get older? How do women perceive short men at that age? I heard that being single at 35-40 years old, rich, and no kids make men high value on the market, no matter whether they are short. is this true?

Thank you all in advance for your answers! :)
