Is calling a woman fat equivalent to calling a man short?

I wouldn't say it's the equivalent, but they're still both quite nasty things to say if your intent is to hurt and try to crush someone's self-worth.
Such comments are what many would call, "high-school bullying tactics".
These are tactics used and designed to chip away at a person's self worth until they begin to doubt everything about themselves, and in the end may destroy a person's self worth if they're repetitively exposed to them.
I've never understood people, especially grown adults that are over the age of 18, who still brand people with these types of insults to just be nasty.
To be clear they aren't really on the same level, but can be both equally used to be malicious to the recipients.
No, ask most women and they agree. You're allowed to call a man short just not allowed to call a woman fat.
Double standards lol
Yeah, but they don't see it that way. And you'll never get them to see that. So I just accept it. I always tell guys you can't apply logic many times when you're discussing how a woman thinks. It just doesn't work! They operate from their own gender specific playbook.
Not even close. If you're overweight, most of the times that can be fixed with exercises, not smoking nor drinking and a healthy diet. If a woman is sitting on the couch, watching TV and snacking on junk food and Ramen noodles, she has no one to blame but herself for the weight gain. Generally weight is something under your control.
Meanwhile a man can't do nothing about his height. If his parents, grandparents and other relatives are short then he can't do anything. You can't control genetics.
An equivalent to calling a man short would be a physical or genetic aspect a woman can't change.
Thank you for MHG
It's not equivalent, but it's still unkind and an unnecessary thing to say. She likely already knows she's fat and is self conscious about it. Or, if she's proud of being fat, or in denial about it, telling her she's fat isn't gonna change that. Just live and let live, she's not hurting anyone but potentially herself, and that's her prerogative.

I would say yes cause many men get offended when they're called shorts and women do get offended when they're big.
Breast size largely differ if you gain or lose weight. I gained 4 kg (used to be underweight) and my breast are a lot bigger than before for example so women can get big breast just by gaining weight.
Personally I say it's equivalent in the sense that it offense them as much.
Women have a certain level of control when it comes to weight
it is the same as calling a man fat.
neither one is something a person should do.
hopefully your parents raised you better than that.
You forgot to mention that your girlfriend said that you had an incredible MicroPenis then I would say its a fair comparison to Richard The First LMFAO
How do you know? Did you meet her?
What's her ethinicity and name?
No, because a man can't change how tall he is, a woman can control how fat she is... Simply by putting the fucking sandwich down.
Only short guys and fact girls care about the stuff
Fat women can stop being fat by not being disgusting and lazy. Short men just didn't luck out on the genetic lottery.
People don't control their height.
