We assign tall to men, and short/weak to women. Women fight for equality, but still want to stand behind a big tall muscular man to "feel protected". What is the reasoning behind this? How can a woman champion feminist causes but still be anti-short man (professionally, when it comes to giving respect and romantic choices)? Short women are considered "cute, petite and sexy", while tall women are "gorgeous models".
Both short and tall women are treated with respect and protected socially, while shorter men are seen as a perpetual joke. I'm surprised that you guys don't discuss this idea of "reverse sexism" more.
I have dated women significantly taller than myself. I am ripped and jacked and am routinely complimented on my looks and body.... but when I date women taller than me they never hear the end of it.
Huffington Post: Ashley Graham's Sexist Shoot Is Also Her Most Powerful
I've read other forums where they "celebrate" what a "victory" this is for both curvy women and short men, but I would be a million dollars that in real life, this model could not or would not want to be able to pick up her boyfriend this way and has an impermeable preference for men not shorter than herself.
