If you believe being short is a weakness in your personality, if you believe only tall guys get hot women, then all you’re going to see is tall guys with hot women. You’re going to miss all the short guys walking around who are getting laid, having fun, and meeting women. When you live in a fear based world, you’re consistently validating your fears. You’re looking for it. You’re consumed with your fears. Agree or Disagree below. (credit: David Wygant)
What you call "short man syndrome" I just call being aware of their reality. Look up "short guys" on Youtube. You get mostly see incel content telling short men the truth about their height. You look up "short guys" on Twitter, nothing but constant berating and belittling. I have to report at least 6 tweets every time I search for height related tweets, for threatening or celebrating violence. Don't even get me started on dating apps. Short men are one of the very last unprotected groups that anyone can openly mock and bully and face no repercussions, but praise for it instead.
If you're on "short man syndrome", why don't you touch on something called tall man syndrome? I mean there are obviously tall men that have been validated their whole life just for being tall, to where they don't know how to handle rejection and they take it out on somebody. There are examples of this, but nobody ever says they have tall man syndrome.
But everyone is quick to use the "short man syndrome" label just in case a short man gets out of line or acts in a way that isn't passive or soft spoken. The game is rigged for short men.
You might say I'm "moaning", but I'm just stating the facts.
if you think being tall doesn't give you a huge advantage, you're deluded. but if you think being average or small means you have no chance, you're an idiot.
I met a super hot Brad Pitt Hottie that was getting women left and right. He was 5ft 5.
His Hands were so large, it looked like he could knock someone out with one hit 🤤
Don’t know about anywhere else but here on GAG-definitely… Seems like the men’s height question is getting asked as much as the “D size” questions lately lol

Here's the actual and factual definition of short guy syndrome for you: as a colloquial term used occasionally in psychology, psychiatry, and psychoanalysis, the Napoleon complex refers to a specific type of inferiority complex associated with short people, and especially with short men. It is also sometimes called the “Napoleon syndrome” or the “short-man complex.” Individuals with this disposition are claimed to overcompensate for their short stature by being excessively belligerent, hostile, or quarrelsome in their interpersonal relationships. A fictional example is depicted in John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men : The character Curley was a “shorty” who always felt obliged to prove his worth by picking fights with bigger men. However, the Napoleon complex is said to motivate other forms of behavior besides interpersonal violence and aggression. Most innocuously, a short male might make himself feel taller by placing home wall hangings a little lower than normal. Or he might wear shoes with slightly thicker heels. Silly and delusional manlet boys, the coping/delusion never stops - does it? Manlets are the bottom of the barrel, the lowest of the low. Know your place...
I had an Emergency Room doctor that must have had short man's syndrome because he was meaner than a 🐍 snake and he was ~ 5' tall.
I left his ER and went to another hospital and was admitted to the hospital by their ER doctor. I was sick enough to stay there for a week.
The short doctor didn't have a clue what was wrong with me and told me to get out of his ER.
What a nut case doctor.
Do short doctor's have less brains too?
I did not appropriately regard the height of the first woman to marry me, and in so disregarding, left myself open to a lack of sustainability between us. She told me since in front of our daughter together years ago, that I need a short woman. Some short men have large sexual reach, and some tall men have small sexual reach. Having grown up precocious, it was natural for me to want women even more than twice my height, but this standard, even in only slight presence, proved in the case with me, to be less than practical. There are multiple factors at interplay and to produce an overgeneralizing multiple choice question like this one, is just to produce a prompt for conceptualization loaded from the start with unreal aspects.
Here it is called the Napoleon complex.
I've met the textbook definition once... the guy was ~1,60 m, hobby bodybuilder (broad as he was tall) and had a massive chip on his shoulder. Constantly asking guys to arm-wrestle, provoking silly little fights, etc. Let's just say, he did not make it into the friend group.
I presume some of the guys are telling the truth about their height when they post these things on GAG, but I have a feeling a lot are trolls (actually 6 ft or greater) and have nothing better to do than make shorter individuals feel crappy, and themselves feel better about their own inadequacies with respect to women.
For those that actually do have a problem with their height, I agree 100% on your take on the situation.
Perfect example my two cousins, who are brothers. The older one is 6'2 the younger 5'9ish. The younger one is a complete dickhead always angry. The older one cool as a cucumber. Funny fact the younger one gets more attractive women but loses them due to the fact he is an asshat...
Seems like men care more than women to me.
Majority of the men on here lol
im tired of men posting questions where they’re like “I’m only 5’9! Nobody will love me! Boohoo!”
I just saw one question where the guy compared his height to having a disability. Like bro shut the fuck up.
I once commented her at GAG how I dated a short men I am 5’7 not tall at all he was 5’5 and I said
for some reasons it was a problem for him I could feel it he was angry and always bring the issue of being shorter than me and due to that we broke up. And this most likely GAG short men ( user) commented back saying “ so it was your problem then not his problem because you broke up “ and he said something like “ it’s sounds it was your problem he was short..” lol
So this gag men was for sure angry at me and what’s funny even protecting my ex too 🤣 that it’s my fault not his fault.
How is it my fault when my ex only talked about his heigh most of the time how is it my fault when he broke up due to feeling insecure !!!
No comment..
On this site. Yes.
real life, encountered plenty who are married. Successful. They don’t let their height get in the way.
Lol I know one personally! However, it wasn't just because of that that he is insecure. I feel sorry for him too. He's complaining about something he can't really do anything about, short of painful extension surgery!
I never was worried about my height. I'm five feet seven inches while the average US male is 5'9" but I never thought about it, unless it was hard to reach something 🤣
I am short by height. I see no problem in it. I mean, is there?
Sometimes I think about my beauty level. But never about my height. Girls also have leagues like we do. They also need a person in their league. I guess it works out in the end.
I don't have any in mind, but I am just 5" 9, I'd be like 5"10 max with shoes, and I have a fantasy of sleeping with a girl who is taller than me, so she has to be 5" 10 or more. Never had the chance somehow. There are many girls who are 5 ' 10 and above but to have one who is and in a position to fuck is something that has escaped me so far.
Yeah, just look in this forum there will surely more than one short guy topic. In real world short men don't complain that much but they are the nastiest gnomes you will ever meet.
Back In elementary and high school there were plenty and we were fawning all over them. They’d either be the same height or shorter. And most never hit a growth spurt til this day.
The only men I have seen whining about being short have been right here on this website. I have never witnessed it in the real world.
Saying things loudly does not make them trtue. What IS true is thatr women prefer tall men.
u not in person...
but I've certainly tripped on so many... here at G@G
watch your step...
I worked with a guy like that. He had rather profound psychological issues but I'm not sure it was all due to being short.
I already has date and be in previous relationship with shorter men and they no problem getting women that had attracted to short men. tons of girls ruining after them. some of them were cheaters that i been in relationship with and has be more on short side , i'm 5ft. i also went to learning disability college
