Pointless myTake #1 about height for my fun and amusement

From 1000s of opinions from women and men, statistics and forum threads (from psychologytoday to people I know in real life.) I want to note a few things...

Point 1: Expect a female to *want/ prefer* a male taller than herself.

"Not all women care for height!!!" you say? I never said, that 'all' females care for it, I said expect it.

Point 2: The human height statistic is hugely misleading. 5'10" is a mean average for American men; not the modal average!

"What does this mean?" It means you are more likely to find men above and below 5'10" than a man 5'10" tall themselves.

Point 3: As a lot more men below the mean average than men above, for women, it is the opposite.

"What does this mean?" It means if we randomly pair up men with women all over the world, there would be a lot more pairs where the women are taller than the male they paired up with.

Point 4: Tall men will continue to dominate top leader roles due to self-fulfilling prophecies and social expections attributed to height.

Point 5: Short men need to get over their height insecurites because life is not fair.

And life will continue to not be fair. So what if you are 4'11" and 95% of girls won't even bat an eye at you because of your height that you are not in control of? Complaining is not going to solve anything but you still have every right to complain.

Point 6: And that goes for girls also.

Point 7: To people who suggest "find a shorter girl" to short men. This is only reinforcing the idea that short men shouldn't consider taller women a potential mate/partner/SO and should 'resort' to a standard that doesn't need to be there in the first place self-fulling the prophecy (see what I did there? I linked it to a previous point.)

Point 8: Many tall women who aren't so picky with height generally would be picky if they believed it was feasible.

Let me explain. The idea is that if tall women were picky with height, there would a lot less potential mates to choose from since they themselves are taller than a lot of males already so they have 'lower' their standards because they are not in a position to do so. They would be if there were more men to choose from (or if they were shorter themselves).

Point 9: Same goes with short women.

Have you noticed short women tend to be "less" picky with height? Of course you have but they are not "really" less picky. They still won't go underneath their height. Sorry guys who are shorter than girls who are short themselves. They still won't go for you.

Point 10: When diving into the reasons of people's height preferences shows that preference is based on psycho-evo babble.

You know... Like taller men are more masculine or smaller girls are more feminine and men feel more masculine. Ones like... "I would feel like his mother" etc... Men are seen as protectors blah blah blah...

Yes, men and women care if their femininity and masculinity are threatened. (So much for breaking through gender roles... This further re-enforces it. Oh well...)

Point 11: If someone isn't interested in you because of something you can't control, then it is only right that you shouldn't want to be with that person anyway.
