Why do people ave a problem with short men?

[Anonymous]

there's a celebrity 5 four guy his eyes are to die for. he's so cute and attractive. I have a bit of a crush on him. He's dreamy. I dont think i ever noticed or carrd about any mans height until a few years ago when i went online and mens height is all people bring up whether as a joke or serious. I never even cared about that.

And im a tall girl so i wouldn't mind trying to date a short man and see how it felt. I care about the insides.

I'm also a short guy as well. From the guys side, men that are much taller than short men sometimes have the need to think they are superior and shit talk short men and make them feel like crap. Among them are some tall men who have a superiority complex and are full of it. If you're a short guy in the military services where most men are much taller, you'll get bullied left and right and get hated on. From the woman's side, they will never see short men as being good enough physically wise. No matter how hard you try to make yourself better, the height itself will be a disqualifier.

I've liked every height of women, they did not like my height back. I've even liked women that weren't necessarily my type, like women that are just fat and big, but they also wanted guys much taller than me. Mind you, as short guys we can't change our height. So if women reject us for our height, thats even worse than guys rejecting women for weight which they can change. I've noticed women in my generation, Millenials are fucking crazy with their requirements, height being one of them.

But Gen Z women are taking it to a whole new level and literally making height cut offs for what they want. I blame social media. These girls that weren't even a child in elementary school when the year 2000 started, basically got on these apps at like the age of 12 - 14 and then it got worse from there. I'm born in the 90s, but I think its way worse now than it was in the past. Most women on apps are completely immature asshats.

They want everything and anything thats perfect in a guy, especially height being one of them, but they aren't even perfect themselves. I've generally developed a hatred toward guys much taller than me by default and a lot of women. Unless I get a good interaction with both groups, I generally dislike a lot of them that have a behavior of what I just described. People are assholes and always will be, what can you do.

Im sorry my dear. I feel really bad when i hear stuff like what you described. Those people who act that way may be doing a service insofar as they expose how shallow thy are... and you don't want anyone like that around you. In fact auch behavior is disgusting. Especially from the men.
I think a lot of these young girls see the propaganda about mens height and folllow along mostly cause they are bullies themselves and want an excuse to bully men or anyone really. Its just ugliness within them.

As i said before a few years ago when i started hearing these stupid jokes or comments about mens height, i dont think i ever gave it a thought. There certainly are attractive short men, much shorter than me for example, and i didn't think badly of it at all.

It is a weird thing that girls strangely pay a lot of attention to, and because of that gives a lot of guys anxiety over their height.

I think a big reason is that girls prefer their partners to at least be taller than them. I think that's understandable. Though I know some girls also relate height to attractiveness, which is a bit of a mystery to me.

I've always been on the taller side, so I can't speak for those who may have to deal with the topic head-on through their lives. But in my opinion, I don't think it's fair to not accept someone for physical attributes they have no control over.

[Asker]

I feel bad because i have heard a lot of short men say they feel bad about being short. But its about being a gentleman and what you are on the inside whch matters and makes the difference. Being tall has no effect on that. It just is something sulerficial society thinks looks good.

I don't know. Never made sense to me either. I mean its ok to have preferences but one has to be realistic and understand the right person won't be the dream image in the head. If you find the right man and if he's short, that shouldn't matter. Right person over height. Similarly, i prefer tall girls but if the right woman comes along in my life and she isn't tall, I'll obviously hold on to her for life because she's the one if she's the right person.

[Asker]

Very well said-!!

[htmndg183]

Thank you. Fancy a private chat?

[htmndg183]

Your answer will be respected.

I've always been under the impression that most women perfer someone that's taller than them.

Kinda in the same manner that some guys prefer someone that's shorter than them.

[Asker]

I have only had one boyfriend and it was a long time ago. Guys dont ask me out so i didn't really get a chance to date a short guy. But if a man is attractive and i see something inside him i like and admire i want to date him... He just has to want me too and ask me out.

[Asker]

I feel like the only reason i might be psyhed out at first is because of all the propavanda I've heard the past few years bashing short men like its a crime to be shorter than your woman.

[Berethor]

Because women are on average half-head shorter than men, so it's a masculine trait. Most women want a tall man because tall men look more masculine, and because tall genes are better.

Longevity is inversely correlated with height. Tall men die younger. If you marry him you can collect his life insurance sooner.

[Asker]

What a shallow answer

[Anonymous]

I dont. I just never been attracted to a man who's under 6ft even though in 4ft10. I kind of viewed the short guys I dated as more of brothers than in a romantic way.

[SAMI_DABBAB]

I wish I knew, it doesn't make much sense

[Asker]

A good soul is a good soul. Thats all i see i dont care about the other stuff

[SAMI_DABBAB]

I agree with this completely

[Anonymous]

[Asker]

Late 20s why

[Opinion Owner]

It is great that this comes from a matured person. How do you feel about 5'8"?

[Asker]

Thats not short. The guy i mentioned in OP is 5'4... he's probably considered short.

[Asker]
