I keep seeing this comment on youtube and on forums all over the internet. What are we supposed to learn exactly?
I get that Manlets are apparently men under 5'8?
For those who don't remember, it's about the woman getting trolled after saying she hates short guys and says on her profile that if a guy is under 5'7, he better swipe left. After that, the guy says "all short guys should be exterminated right" to which she says "yeah" but then gets mad when he starts talking about fat girls.

Im 5 5 as well and am 48 and I really appreciate your post. I am a successful professional, was married for 19 years, got divorced and now am serious w a 34 year old beauty. I must admit though that I am still very self conscious about my height and how people view me for being short, both men and woman. Its easy to say "I dont care what other people think. But being aware that there is a general perception toward short men as being negative is hard to ignore and sometimes it makes me feel self conscious and insecure. The idea that we must just accept it and be happy regardless of this perception and the insults that accompany it, encourages the blatant heightism seen in society. Im a confident strong minded man but that doesnt mean I should be ok with insults meant to degrade me.
If you've achieved this much success in your life, you should feel better than most men. There are plenty of 6 footers who caught knee deep in divorce related debt and can't enjoy life to save their lives. Do you have any kids? And you're dating a 34 yr old at 48? I know a couple of 30+ year old virgins who aren't short lol.

Hello short guys.
Im 48 years old and am 5' 5". I have gotten depressed lately about my height after a *bleep* 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.
I see how that would get under my skin, but at 48? I'm younger than you, but clearly this guy has a major insecurity issues. Why at 6'5 would he need to get in some guy's face, a man a foot shorter just to shoot off at the mouth? Maybe because he thought "damn, how could he get her while I'm walking solo".
He'd never admit it, but the guy is jelly lol
