I have absolutely experienced this in the workplace, except there was no term for it. Socially, people treat taller men as individuals and shorter men as a group. When tall man is belligerent, he's considered to just be bad person. If a shorter person acts the same way, it's "because of his size".
I don't know that the term "tall man complex" would have the same piercing effect, but that's a good way of putting it, because it definitely is a "complex" that I and many people I know have noticed.
They can't figure out why a shorter man may consider this surgery, yet are calling the man a "hobbit" and other height-related insults. 🙄
Thank god I am happy with who I am, but I fault no other man of modest stature who opts for this kind of surgery. His money, his business.
One of the most important and life altering decisions a man can make is who he partners up with. That guy is going to go through it.
She is saying what many people, including some shorter men think out loud. Heaven forbid you say something similar to her though.
