Is black culture more heightist and hostile to short men than others?

For this thread, I'm talking about black women who date and interact with black men. I'm not talking so much about other men's experience with black women. And on that note, there seems to be a double standard which I will get to later.

If you browse threads on websites like Lipstick Alley and Nairaland (I chose those two sites deliberately), you can see a very callous and vitriolic view of anything that discusses the idea of shorter guys and romance. And I mean, the responses are usually very nasty.

Now, no one likes to be stereotyped, and I'm not creating this thread to purposely create division or talk horribly about black women, but this is an honest question.

Are black women and by extension is black culture more heightist and hostile to shorter men than others?

I would say. yes  it appears so on the surface, but only because blacks as a whole tend to be more vocal about their feelings than other group in practice. Overall, I'd say no though, that blacks are at parity with other groups. We can't say that blacks are more heightist when Tom Cruise was made fun of for his entire career and people like Donald Trump have ruined the career of politicians over height ("Little Marco").
