Greetings everyone,

Because we are in a time with 'social justice', where people are very insecure with their 'social identities' and are trying to change the status quo as well as promoting liberal thought, the curious thoughts came to me: Is heightism going to be addressed now? and If so, would it lead to negative ramifications?   

Here are my thoughts on these: I remain indifferent yet thoughtful.  Though it's nice that this would be addressed, I think it would be fair not to do anything about it.  Why?  Because bringing attention to this matter would proliferate the negativity towards the shorter man.  We don't need more negativity towards us.  Fortunately, from my experiences, I think that heightism towards us is quite rare in most public spheres.  However, if the shorter man is in the dating sphere, then apparently, he will experience heightism.  All I say is that 'ghosting' and leaving this issue in the dark remains stable in a neutral way, which may be positive.

Let me know what you think. 

Looking back on my dating history, I notice that Latinas were always willing to date me and were heavily attracted to me (and of course I'm always attracted to them. They are my top preference). It's usually black women who call me out on my height and make very negative comments about it. White women did this sometimes also, but they're not as vocal and I seem to have little problem attracting white women (of all heights).

Why do you think Latinas are more accepting of short guys? And I mean both tall and short Latinas didn't have height at the top of their list.

This woman is mad because there are too many men below 5'10 on dating sites. 

I'm 5'7, but would rather be 5'8. Sounds cleaner. 

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.

Do the same video and change "Short man" to "black woman" and she'll have a boob attack.

Study says taller people are more fiscally conservative
