So my younger brother, who is 19, started dated a girl who is 17. I got to meet her the other day and she asked if I was HIS younger brother because I am "still" short. Looking at my height, I am not super short or anything. She thought I was 14!!! He is about 6'2. My brother's reply was a laugh. I was so pissed off by it.

Who has a harder time in the dating world? I am starting to believe that much like straight tall men wanting shorter women, there are plenty of gay tall men who want shorter men. Thoughts?

I used to visit that site at least four times a week. The owner of that site, there might be two of them "research" ways on how to get taller. They go around and regurgitate all of this garbage about all of these "scientists" who are studying "growth plate regeneration" and all of these supposed "breakthroughs" on chemicals and procedures coming out to make people taller.

NEWSFLASH, it will NEVER HAPPEN. There is no way nor will there every be a way to get taller after you pass puberty and no one cares enough to fund some crapola like that.

The site has years worth of articles and not a single one that irrefutably gets people to grow taller. All they have are a bunch of scammy products with amazon links to make the site owners richer while playing on men's insecurities. It's a damn hoax. 

If you're over 30 then chances are you spent your 20s researching that "one thing that nobody knows about" or that "secret method that some rogue doctor has" to help you get that growth spurt you never got. Well, that's how they make money, but playing on those people.

TL:DR the only way to get taller is elevator shoes or some risky $100,000 that will break your legs and render you never to play sports again. Natural height growth is nothing but trash. 

"I don't believe in doing things to manufacture my body to appeal to what I think people might like," Hart says in the above video. "This is it. This is what I was given. This is my playing cards. If we were playing poker, I've got to make this hand work. This is it for me. And this is what I'm going to ride out. So how do you not embrace it? You get one life. One. You get one life. I'm going to embrace mine."

It is a bit old but I love how he is just true to himself.

You all read my thread on the DirecTV petite randy moss and thankfully sgc did an article on it. Our fellow short men on r/short created a petition on Change.org and we need you all to sign it! This is a pivotal moment to let advertisers know that height shaming is no different than the fat shaming that they stay away from in advertising in the modern era. We need 100 signatures. At this point, there are only 24.

I got a few pairs the other day and must say they fit well. They go down to a 28 inch inseam so they are great for us shorter men. You ever try some on or own any gap gear?

"Peter Manning is 5'8'' — only two inches shorter than the average American man.

And yet he found it almost impossible to find clothes that fit well without having to pay what he calls a "tailor tax" — the hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars short men spend having their clothing remade to flatter their bodies.

"I happened to run into a few major retailers at a party years back," the Tony Award-winning producer-turned-designer told Business Insider. "And I told them, 'I go into your stores and I can't really buy anything, what do you suggest I do?' And they both told me to get my clothes tailored, and I was like, 'That's not a good enough answer for 25% of American men!'""

This is from late 2013. I had no idea!! Here is his shop : http://www.petermanningnyc.com/
