Re: Why are so many people in denial about heightism?

First welcome to the forum. Second, from visiting other forums whenever heightism is brought up, it's typically 5'8-5'11 guys complaining which makes it seem more whiny than actually real. Third, since it's mostly men complaining, it's framed largely as a men's issue and you know how society feels about men's issues.

Re: As a shorter man myself, I love this site. Thread Starter

There are other communities for short men on the web. A lot of them focus on things counterproductive to our progress as men like "growing taller", whining or are trolled relentlessly by people who want laughs or to boost their own egos (i.e. r/short on reddit).

Here though, things are really different. It's like we're all honest about society's view of us and work hard to become the best we can be in all other areas of our lives, while condemning height bigotry. It's a nice mix.

To be fair, he was being a bit of an idiot. Funny how the first thing she does is insult his height. Lol @ the trump reference.

Re: The Third Richest Man In The World Is A Short Man Thread Starter

Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon is now the third richest person in the world.

Mr Bezos owns 18% of Amazon's shares, which rose 2% in trading on Thursday. Forbes estimated his fortune to be $65.3bn (£49.5bn).

Amazon's revenue beat analysts' expectations, climbing 31% from last year to $30.4bn in the second quarter.

Profit for the e-commerce giant was $857m, compared with $92m in 2015.

According to Forbes estimates, Mr Bezos's fortune is only surpassed by Microsoft founder Bill Gates, worth $78bn (£59bn), and the $73.1bn (£55bn) fortune of Zara founder Amancio Ortega.

Amazon had developed a reputation for announcing little or no profit each quarter, but appeared to hit a turning point last year and has seen improving earnings since.

Amazon shares have spiked 50% since February.
