Frankie Muñiz Loves Being Short
"Frankie Muniz went to Twitter this morning to see if his fans had any questions for him. They did! Out of the generous list of answers Muniz gave, one stood out. In reply to one fan asking whether his height has ever bothered the “Malcolm In The Middle”/“Agent Cody Banks” actor, who is 5’5”, had this to say..."
Nice to see Frankie Muñiz is comfortable with himself and doesn't fall into the media crap.

People will tell you that these people do not represent what the majority of people believe, but I beg to differ.

I hear what you're saying, but we have to stop looking at the problem side and look more at the solution side. Who cares if the "world" cares or not? It's not the whole world that you ever have to deal with, it's your own personal world. Most of my friends have always generally been on the shorter side, and we don't see being short as a problem with each other. While we fight to fix the problems of the world, let's continue to make our own worlds a little closer to the values we share. If you run into a problem, don't let your height be an issue. Lean on your short buddies when you need them, and they will lean on you if they get some trouble.
No doubt, if you have friends who happen to be tall, no problem. Just know the type when you see them...tall guys who think that height is everything because it's all they have to go on--it's their only crutch. Run away from them because they will never give you respect, since that would be an insult to their worldview. Do not get involved with this type, because they will only try to bring you down.
Upvoted your post. I don't think any of us here see short as being a problem. I can't speak for everyone here, but I think what minilinebacker is getting at is that heightism is as old as time and in the west, most people see shortness in males as a negative thing and views shorter men as being inferior. I agree we have to challenge that whenever we can, but it's tedious battle.
If you were going to combat heightism, what route would you take or what do you think society and short men should do?
