Short Men and 'Social Justice'

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.

Why are Latina women not as heightist as white and black women?

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.

Which is the most important to attract women? Looks, Wealth, Height?

In order, which is the most important to attract women? And which would you say is THE most important?

I'd say

  • Income
  • Height
  • Looks
  • Connections
  • Physique
  • Education

I wouldn't put personality on that list because you have to get to know a person to become attracted or turned off by that.

Short guys, do you seek out taller women for the sake of your kids?

After noticing how evil short women can be about a man's height, I wondered if it was in my best interest to only date (or try to date) tall women and women of average height. Women 5'3 and up tend to care less about my height than women shorter. Do you notice the same? When I hear little women say they only want to date tall men so their kids can be tall (which doesn't always happen), it kind of makes me want to do the same, especially since I'm short for a guy (but not as short as these short women who tell me to get lost).

What is your ideal height?

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

Tall Culture

I hate the US's tall culture. Everywhere on TV you see TALL.

Tall models, tall athletes, tall everybody.

People see all this nonsense and think absurd things like "6'0 is short"

Average height is much better than tall.

Short guys have some advantages over tall guys such as a longer life expectancy.

New here ... Looking for support

 

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.

Those times when you see younger family or friends after a few years

Had this moment yesterday at a family cookout. I was sort of a reunion. Can't tell you how I felt after a whole bunch of my younger family members bragged that they grew past me. You think a fat women would tell other fat family members and friends "oh, I just went past you, I'm thinner than you now". 

This insensitivity towards something you can't change versus something that can easily be changed is unbelievable.

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

Youtube Pranks are a good case study in seeing girls hate on short guy

alot of Youtube Pranks have guys hitting on random girls and going up to random girls, if a guy is on the short side, a girl is almost always going to be rejectful of him and if a guy is on the tall side, a girl is going to always be open to him, seeing this has really made me realize what I have been missing out on and it has made me bitter

Why do men who are average/tall wish they were taller?

Something I've always noticed is that men who are like 5'9-5'10 and even 6' wish they were taller yet. Why do people deny heightism when people who are already average want to be taller to reap the social benefits that come along with it?

Do short guys really have inferiority complexes? I don't...

Why do people insist that short guys are somehow always "angry"? Most short people I know are more friendly and easy going where as a lot of the taller people I've known were usually the bully type (especially if I just happened to do something better than they have). 
 

Is it a defense mechanism to boost their own confidence by labelling short guys as having inferiority complexes?
