Reddit Post: "As A Plus-Sized Woman, What's Irritates You In Dating?"
(Reddit) As A Plus Sized Woman, What Irritates You In Dating? The parallels between what Short Men talk about and what fat chicks talk about are almost so identical, of course except that the key to all of their (fatties) problems are within literal reach. Anyone of them can get up on any day and lose f**** weight. I don't care how hard it is. Either be happy being a fatty or lose weight and be like everyone else! Check out some of the things people said on that post
How can these chicks not see the similarities? Do I feel sorry for them? Nope. Chances are they too are on the "nope won't date a guy shorter than me" bandwagon. |

Thoughts on this comment...
I read this on reddit and it made me think. He has a point. I mean, not to bash us or anything but a woman really shouldn't be called shallow for seeking traits she wants in a life partner. Thoughts?
"Discriminating about height in romance isn't a shallow thing. That's a permanent trait & therefore longterm realism in action. It's not like being put off by crooked teeth, the name of someone's fave band or even the lack of an education It would be shallow not to get past the crooked teeth because they're not necessarily forever. But getting somebody of the wrong height is something that's seen down the generations. Can't be escaped. It isn't "shallow" to take a pass on something so far-reaching." |

Does anyone know where the shorter man is welcomed?
After looking at heightism on Wikipedia, it is shown that there are some places that regulate height discrimination; however, are there any other places for which the shorter man can migrate to? Is there any place in the world where height is not looked at in terms of careers and women? I'm curious, what are your thoughts on some parts of Europe? or Japan? |

Thoughts on MGTOW?
Please express your thoughts on MGTOW. A lot of women nowadays judge men based on an unfair criteria. Why should there be investment towards them? |

Short Men, Overweight Women Face Lower Pay
of course, as everyone knows, unlike height someone's weight is for the most part under one's control via diet and exercise. i find one of the comments to the article also very interesting: " Even though I am over 60 and therefore short of options, I will not date a man under 5'10". And this must be the reason. Taken as a group, I just don't gell with them. They sort of overcompensate in other not very nice ways. I couldn't put my finger on it -- but maybe now I get it. Also, other parts of them tend to be smaller. Sorry but true, and size does matter. Agreed genetics and racial characteristics (i.e. Hispanic, Asian, Caucasian) play a role, but I often wonder if the diet and nutrition of the parents plays a part. That would also affect intelligence and other attributes." http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/03/10/short-men-overweight-women-face-lower-pay/?_r=0 |

how can a short man feel confident about a woman's love towards him?
Hi guys. I have seen everywhere how women have a strong preference for tall men.. I have seen this in my family, on the internet, on the movies, etc... Now, "unfortunately" (from women's viewpoint) there aren't enough tall men in this world.. as a result many women will end up marrying a "short" man. and I quote the word "short" because I don't understand how can a woman call "short" a man who is 2 or 3 inches taller than her.. I mean a woman who is 5'4'' tall is likely to call short a man who is 5'7''... but how can she call him 'short" if he is 3 inches taller than her? either way... my question is... how can a short man ever feel confident about his wife's love towards him? how can he be sure that she didn't "settle down" with him because she was unable to find a tall man?

rich, young, attractive 5'9" man too short to find dates
a comment from the below article about dating: "Side note: I have a personal connection to this issue. My nephew (28) lives in NYC, he’s good looking (yes, he is), in excellent shape, has a PhD in Comp Sci and banks 270K+/yr. He would totally relate to this article because it’s utter hell for him to sustain (much less even get) the attention of girls his age. So, what’s his problem? He’s “only” 5-9. An extenuating problem is his limited dating experience, having been committed to education up until three or so years ago, but he’s fixing that. Every time we discuss this subject, he reminds me how the girls flat out tell him them they want someone taller. He even tries to make light of it by saying he’s a solid member of the “invisibles” club but I can see it hurts him deeply." http://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/understanding-men/40-year-old-men-want-to-get-married-too-on-not-being-the-old-guy-in-the-club/

Maybe Feminist Thought Could Aid Us.
Please note: I am actually not a male-feminist. I am just an observer. I try to be unbiased as possible. I found this video interesting. Let me know what you think about it along with feminist thought. |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiHFfkN6fE4 This video explains some reason why taller men make fun of shorter men. It can be insecurity or possibly envy. That is what the video addresses. NOTE: This does not mean ALL taller men do this. In fact, it can happen both ways because shorter men can do this as well. Let me know what you think. |

Hi. Forum just got better.
Shorter than average guy here (for my ethnic background). Don't like to say short. Coming up on the big 4 0 pretty quick. 5'7.5 tall. 175 lbs. lean muscle. People guess 185-190 though. Happy to still have good hair. lol Former highrise construction worker in Chicago, Ex-Army Sergeant, highly decorated multiple tour Iraq Campaign veteran, and in general bad Mutha... I see big guys at the gym who can't bench their own bodyweight and I'm thinking, I weigh 80 lbs less than you and I can bench YOUR bodyweight. I can walk into a room filled with people and know that very few if any men there have done the kinds of stereotypically "manly" things I've done. Yet, I still have these nagging insecurities about my height. I suppose forums like this can be good or bad, depending on what you make of them. Mostly just gonna put my 2 cents in. |
