Heightism
Why are so many people in denial about heightism?
post #1

It's literally everywhere, from everyday conversation to the workplace to dating and in social settings. Why do so many people deny it exists? Even when you press people, they'll cave in and be like "okay", but then go on some rant about how it's not that bad or serious.

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.

Mens issues and how they are viewed, thats a good point!

Also i think its very similar to the gay topic, that people say that they support it, but really dont want anything to do with it.

Cause everybody wanna be a good person, it easier to say than to do.
