Nikki Glaser is 5'9... in other words tall.
The ones complaining about this skit took offense to the "bargain bin" comment but failed to take the whole thing in context.
She's 5'9. A lot of tall women get overlooked for shorter women.
A lot of women in her position would remain single over going out with a shorter guy.
She has dated shorter men! It sounds like she dated many and said toward the end that she doesn't mind it.
You can tell how she mocks women for "having to be smaller than their boyfriends" that she had insecurities over it.
She's pretty hot, even for an older woman.
I swear some of you guys have to be REALLY immature or miserable to not see that she is PRAISING shorter men in this routine.
Shirts which fit well are always the biggest problem, especially if you have larger arms. You can buy a small, but then there is no chest room. If you get a medium, then you'll get the chest room but the shirt will be too long.
Can't win. I just buy mediums and then have the bottom of the shirts tailored.

OK. To some degree, each answer is valid in its own right, for some men in some situations.
Being a short male is hard-- that's a universal. We are dealt a rotten hand in life, physically, and denied a LOT of good things that normal and tall men enjoy every day and totally take for granted. That's not fair AND you can't change it. Live with it and work really hard to make the best of it.
A few of us have success stories. I have shared in older posts that my wife has always found me attractive because I have a V-shaped build & big chest, and she fears large men. Period. I developed the other aspects of myself to be really attractive, valuable, and respected. No, it wasn't easy. Yes, I had all the cards stacked against me. So do you. But if your friends and family and mate and children see you as tough, victorious, smart, honest, generous, kind, positive, and confident they will love and respect you.
Total strangers will most likely bully you, ignore you, overlook you, and not value you. Look tough and smile all the time. People don't know how to respond to that. When I'm in public, I walk briskly like I'm in charge. I carry myself with an aire of authority. And then I smile and act graciously and generously. Do that and you'll impress people that you are not to be discounted, but that you are also "bigger" when it comes to being kind.
Be prepared. Don't be caught off guard by the a**hole relative at the family reunion that loves to make fun of you. Have your response to him planned in advance. I always do. Billy the Bully doesn't hassle me anymore after what I said last time.
Read books and articles about this subject. Learn all you can from others.
Don't ever talk it about it with someone you don't know well and trust. Journal about it. Record your thoughts for yourself.
Basically, it's no one else's life problem and they don't really care. Tall guys have NO clue-- don't ever talk about it with them. They have every advantage in life, and we have a boatload of disadvantages. The nicest, kindest tall guy is still tall. He's not the enemy, but he surely cannot feel our pain. Only one of us can feel our pain-- not a woman or anyone else. Only another short guy knows the he** of a lifetime spent in a body that everyone else grew out of. If a tall guy wants to understand, ask him what his adult life would have been like if he had been stuck in the body of a 12-yr old boy the whole time. He can't imagine it.
I hope this helps all of you who read it.
Such a motivating post! Would love to see some more posts from you here to keep shorter men from falling into pity party mode.
