But being tall has downsides.
Is it just me, or are short people jealous of tall people?
But being tall has downsides.
The only reason I would want to be taller is because taller guys can become more muscular and weigh more without their testosterone levels dropping. If I go beyond a certain weight, my testosterone levels plummet and I feel like crap. It's fine though, I'd rather be strong at a lower weight than being weak at a higher weight.
I'm short but I'm not jealous of the height but how tall people are treated better and often become more successful.
that is true. there is no denying here. no one messes with you. People think twice before they say something to you.
And people literally look up to you so psychology see you as an adult and respect you more.
I love being short but thanks to my mom I was gifted with long legs and a short torso, so I can wear heels and not be taller than my date or other guys but still look good because of my long legs. Its like being short with the benefits of being tall.
i have a long torso
i don't think most short people are jealous at all xD
I don't know though. i'm on the shorter side, i'm 5'3. and i like being my height. i wouldn't want to be any taller than i am.
I doubt it. Only if they're guys they'd be jealous but I don't think any girls would want to be tall. I'm 5'9 and okay with it, but being average height of 5'6 would be better.
but 5'9 is model height :/ But I understand, the taller you are as a girl, the smaller becomes your dating pool.
Also I almost never wear heels! I wish I could without looking like a freak or towering over guys lol
Just you because not all short people are jealous and I've met many tall people wishing they were short.
No, I'm 6'4 ^^
"Is it just me, or are short people jealous of tall people?"
Again, just you.
I think you dislike me. I got nothing against you :/

Some people are insecure, some people aren't.
Some people are jealous, some people aren't.
Some people get angry, some people don't.
As far as me personally, no. As long as I'm taller than the girl I'm dating, Idgaf.
My 4.2 friend never gets tired of giving rants about how all the rich people all tall or those are the only kind of guys girls go for even when I disprove him.
I don't mind being short. When I stand on stools snd stuff and I look down, it looks really high and kinda scary. Like if you fall on your face, that's a long way to fall. I wouldn't want that kind of life.
A lot of people are jealous of what they think they are short of excuse the pun short/tall, fat/thin etc
people only want to be tall because tall is the majority preference.
The media show models as the ideal of beauty. Male and female models are tall and therefore beautiful
yeah the brainwashing is real.
I would assume that in the real world more guys like shorter girls. Like under 5'8?
@Piscarian92 I could see that, but I mean its not like there is much of a choice, on average a lot of girls are about 5'5 or below.
Most of my friends are 160-165cm and they always tell me that I should consider myself as lucky for being tall. I wouldn't say that they are jealous though, they are neutral about it.
I'm a short person (5'2 or 5'3) and I am very jealous of tall people. I can't reach anything :/
Well, being short, I can bend down easily multiple times a day. No backpain there. Can a tall person do that? :)
No. I'm 6'4 and have a long torso. I wear 34 inch jeans. I knew a guy who is 6'7 but wears 38 inch jeans.
I can't even put my laptop on my knees without having to bend
I wish I had endless legs too.. but I don't think I'm jealous.
'Too tall people are jealous of short people. Too short people are jealous of too tall people. I guess
I'm not jealous of tall people past a certain height I think extra inches are functionally useless.
No, actually I like being short and would never want to be tall.
They seem to be angry with something and I am sure its not because the tall guy stole the girl hmmmm
I'm short and it doesn't bother me but, you're right a lot of people are really bothered by their lack of height.
I love being short. Whatcha talking about?
I want to be 5'8 so yeah I'm jealous.
I'm short as fu** and I love it.
Vice versa
