Can people stop acting like height is correlated to masculinity?

Your height cannot be changed and it can't be changed. And I think it is dangerously irresponsible to correlate masculinity to height, as if the only way men can be masculine if they're tall. And I see it all the time when women describe the man they want, they never describe short masculine men, no, they describe masculine and tall, as if being short (5'7/under) is synonymous with femininity. And then when there are women that desire feminine men, they are more likely to associate it with shorter stature. Short men do not have to identity as someone feminine if that's not who their personalities align as, but it is still pushed to them regardless and their masculinity is gatekept, just because they had a shorter height. When people describe a handsome man or a masculine man I already know they're never talking about a short man.

Because the majority of people are stupid. The average tall man is not masculine because of his height. Plenty of men fought in wars and saved lives, many of them were not tall. That's masculine. The average tall guy would probably whimp out if they were ever to get military training nor do they have any expertise in actually knowing what to do in a life or death situation.

A cop thats like 5'2 would save your ass and be more masculine than a tall guy that would be a buffoon and get himself killed. Shorter men like below 5'10 were able to fit better in tanks during wars, that's pretty masculine. Audy Murphy was 5'5 and one of the best soldiers during WWII. Many tall men will never match his skill and bravery. A lot of tall guys act like lifting weights and working out is "manly" yet they'll piss their pants and run if they have a gun or knife pointed right at them

It's not that height is correlated with masculinity, per se. It's just that height is a traight that is seen as masculine. That's why taller men are generally more attractive to women, and the opposite is true for taller women, who strugle in dating just like shorter men do.

That said, masculinity is a combination of physical and personality attributes. Height is only one of them. My best friend in high school was 5'8" and he was very masculine and got more attention from girls than anyone else I knew at the time.

Lol double standards. But if you say you want a chick who doesn’t have a million bodies you’re misogynistic. Which is something she can control, he can’t control his height as you pointed out. It’s ok for her to say she wants a man who makes six figures but you can’t say I want a chick w a nice pair of tits w a nice ass, you’re misogynistic. Women mentality.

There is nothing unmanly about being short. At all. Lacking confidence because of a physical trait you can't change is unmanly. But you can work on that.

You can be strong, cool, confident, and full of honor whether you're 3'6 or 6'3. It just depends on what you're truly made of.

It’s simply the truth. Tall men are masculine. Short guys aren’t

[236color]

Simple truth, women with big tits are sexy, women with small tits aren't. How do you like it?

[Tharithi]

@236color that’s the lamest argument. Women with small tits were always loved. Big tits is a trend that will pass. Height isn’t a trend. It’s been this way for eons

[Tharithi]

@236color looks like your brain is smaller than your height

I'm still hoping you'll follow me, Goddess 8><3

[JHAYES317]

That ain’t true…I can overpower most guys I know who are taller than me. In terms of a fight, strength matters much more than height

[Billlewis]

@JHAYES317 That comment is worth a follow, Sir;). I'd like to invite you to follow me as well if you want.

@Tharithi, you completely missed the point. I was trying to put you in the place you put men. A physical attribute you can do nothing about defines your worth as a person. Okay, I get it, you have preferences based on eons of evolution regarding mating. You're allowed to have those, it doesn't make a man less masculine, it makes him less attractive to you. You shouldn't shit on every guy under 6 feet, just like I shouldn't shit on every woman less than a C cup. You don't have to date them, and you don't have to be an ass about it either.

[Tharithi]

@236color lol but smaller tits are the standard. Short guys have been pathetick forever

[Billlewis]

I swear you're going to make me melt... lol

Based on your profile, it's safe to assume you're a male larping as a female.
