How does one maintain respect for women when most of them treat me as a substandard freak and defiled forever on account of my height?

Will probably get deleted for being mIsOgYnIsTiC but fuck I just want to be feel comfortable in my own skin and be a descent person but this revulsion that's so prevalent certainly does breed resentment.

You aren’t that short, and most women don’t really care about height. If they do have a preference, they certainly don’t think you’re a freak for being 5’7. Most people have some sort of preference, and it sucks when you aren’t the person you like’s type, but that’s not a reason to give up respecting any woman or think they are all awful.


This isn’t meant to come across as rude - but you aren’t entitled to a woman, but the way you wrote this kind of comes across like you feel as if you are which is a type of attitude that will put most women off, as well as generalising them all thinking that they all are horrible and hate short people with a passion. It’s probably not the height that’s putting them off. Everyone is an individual, and I believe that generally you should respect everyone until they give you a reason not to

5'7 is short. Most women do see a short guy as ruined forever. Yes, your assumption is rude—I don't feel entitled to women, I just want to feel acceptable and not like some monster that can't be loved. Height does put women off, please don't pretend otherwise and blame it on attitude. Everyone is an individual but expecting a guy to be taller is a standard that women overwhelmingly share.

It’s really not, not a single woman I know has a height requirement, I know a guy who was about 5’0 and was in a relationship with a girl who was about 6’0 (they were very normal people), genuinely - most people would prefer someone the same height or a couple inches taller but pretty much all women wouldn’t rule someone out because they are 5’7, and most women are shorter than that so it’s a completely fine height in most people’s eyes anyway. It’s just a small group of women on the internet that I’ve ever seen say they want someone 6’0 or taller.

You aren’t a monster, you’re a pretty average height and I hope you can learn to feel comfortable in your own skin. Happiness and self love comes from within!

Resenting all women and not giving them respect because you haven’t found a partner and are insecure about your height isn’t fair, and is what makes your statement come across an entitled/a bad attitude, which is what a lot of people would pick up or assume when reading that, sorry for offending you, but I’m trying to help you understand that this can come across wrong.

Most of the time, personality and attitude is the most important thing and lots of women do pick up on small things like that, so if you feel like you resent women they can probably tell, which might be the problem. Also, confidence is attractive which doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to be insecure, but if you’re meeting a girl for the first time you could try to work on feeling confident and not bring up height or that you think women hate short guys/don’t give them a chance etc

@sunflower00

You have a lot of insight for your age. Great advice! 👍

[sunflower00]

@RingOfFire thank you!

[YoHoeRose]

I don't think you have respect all women, I'd say respect those who respect you

[boggboss]

Sorry whats your hight

[Asker]

5'7", yes that is short enough to ruin me for most women.

[boggboss]

Yet I'm 5"8 and got a girlfriend thats 5"6 and my brothers 5"4 and is a man slut always with another girl every few weeks so are u sure your hight the issue

[Asker]

but overall women see shorter guys as undatable freaks even if some get lucky

[boggboss]

No they Don't see them as freaks lol yes many women are not attracted to shorter guys but when we are talking about billions of women out there u are still able to find women that don't mind the hight difference so I'm really not sure what your talking about again I know for a fact its not that my brother is lucky because he gets more women then women telling him he is too short

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

@boggboss Exactly, thank you.
