I'm in academia - a college VP. That beats all the odds. In business, sports, politics, and show biz, I was pretty much locked out, but I figured that I could make it in a realm where I was valued by what was in my head, not how far up it was.

The team that was visiting that day was a group of volunteers. My objective was to put them to work, not cause offense, so I knew I had to be sly about shutting down the height boasting. It worked. It accomplished what I wanted-- silence the height discussion without being rude.

In other situations I have been much more direct about shutting down unnecessary bullying about height. I also carefully avoid certain people whom I know to be given to always bringing up my lack of size-- the same people who judge others by obvious things like money and height, and are blind to what matters like character, accomplishments, and morality. Ay-iyiy.

At a big family gathering last weekend I had a wonderful time - my relatives obviously are my size, for the most part. All the men were 5'4 to 5'8. What a great day - no height issues all day long, just having fun and standing around speaking eye to eye with my cousins. We even talked about my wife's uncle who was a WWII hero - a jet fighter shot down in the Pacific-- and he was 5"5" and slight build - perfect for fitting into a plane cockpit.

Contrast that with my day at work yesterday when just by chance I ended up in a room under construction at our college (I'm the one in charge, mind you) with 4 workers all 6'2". How uncomfortable for me, but they were all good friends, kind, jolly men, who would never bring up the height issue. I am very blessed to be around such people.

Amazed by your career accomplishments. You talked about being valued more for your mind in academia, but have you experienced heightism in academia?

Re: Older short guys (30 and up), has dating gotten easier? Thread Starter

Not trolling with this question either. Assuming everyone here is 5'8 and under and 30 and up. If you were unsuccessful dating in your younger years (20s), is it true what they say about dating getting a bit easier? If it did for you, what did change? Was it dieting and lifting, new environment, career and financial success?

It would be great if you could be as blunt and direct as you can about whether your life has gotten better or worse, especially with regards to dating as you've aged.
