Re: Less than 5% of Americans are 6'2 or taller. 6' is NOT average. Thread Starter

This is from 2008, so it's not up to date current, but the point still stands. I don't know how people conflate 6' with average. On just about every website, people swear being under 6' isn't normal and makes you some kind of pariah. 60% of men are under 5'10 which means that average height is beneath that - 5'9

Re: Shortest guy is the first man eliminated on the Bachelorette TV Show Thread Starter

5'9" Jamey from Santa Monica, doesn't even make it past the first elimination round. This is supposedly the most diverse set of contestants ever on that TV show. Just about every race is represented. Guess which area isn't diverse on that show?

Re: Why is evolution used to justify heightism but not racism and sexism? Thread Starter

Don't social scientists agree that racism evolved from the need to identify outsiders and protect the tribe and sexism to protect women as they were pregnant and while babies were young to keep the species going? So why is it when dating, I can't say that I don't find women of a certain race attractive and then say it's because of evolution or say that I prefer docile more traditional women? Wouldn't you say those are more important than height when choosing a partner?

Re: How did you feel when you knew you stopped growing?

I was depressed for a little while. I remember doing stretches, hanging from bars, looking up height growth pills. Now I am comfortable with my height but hate how society sees it.
