Re: Howdy everbody!

Welcome! Another exec here. I am VP of Supply Chain. Not so sure how old you are, but I'm in my late 30s. Which industry are you in? We generally work with HVAC and Geothermal. I am the second shortest in my peer group. Among the staff that I oversee, I am probably the third shortest.

This is fair.

I won't lie and say that it sucks to get jabs at your height, but only because it's the one thing that isn't protected.

As an example, in the corporate environment, making fun of someone's race, gender, body shape if a woman or class will certainly get you fired.

Short jokes? You're expected to take it.

I have a thick skin, and so, as corny as it seems, this does not make me want to be taller. It makes me want to bring the same shame and off-limits to short jokes as the other categories I mentioned.

I know this is an impossible task, but not for the reason you might think it is.

Short is a "man problem". As such, it's not taken seriously because nothing insulting to men is taken seriously.

When you understand this, you can let it go.

With that understanding though, the only way it would be made "off limits", is if enough men made noise about it... and they won't... because men who complain are seen as being "weak".

So here we are.

Re: Can we have a "Whiner" category? Thread Starter

Or come up with a name for this category? This site is supposed to be for successful short men. Posts which feature constant whining or a "we just can't get ahead" mindset hurt this site's brand in my opinion. There are enough sites where short men who aren't woke or figured out life yet, whine and complain like little kids.

Re: Do women like short men who are older? Is there any hope there?

Nikki Glaser is post-wall, so we all know that women who all-of-a-sudden discover "hot short guys" are usually coming to terms with the fact that they couldn't keep a taller man when they were in their prime... so they're now making compromises. If you're a short man with game, then you know better.

I personally think she is really funny, but that joke was more of a look into her soul.

For short men, women like her are great for target practice. Catch and release.

You can quickly live out your college of high school fantasy and then keep it moving.

There is zero reason to take offense to her stand up routine here.
