Furniture?

Do you guys look for specific furniture to buy to accommodate your height? I am not that short but for example prefer coffee tables a bit higher than normal and bureaus that are not so high so I can reach the top shelf. It usually means I look for wider drawers to make up the difference. What about you guys and where do you buy your furniture?

Ties?

Where do you get your ties from? Sounds silly but every tie I buy is too long because of my size.

Had an amazing date from a woman I met off Tinder

So let's get it straight. I get a decent amount of matches on Tinder but many times the conversation goes south once height comes up. Last week this really attractive woman sent me a super like and we started talking. We shared a lot of the same interests, football, video games, conspiracy theories, sci fi, wresting and swimming. When she asked me about my height, I cringed but she said cool and left it at that. 

We went to the pool in our area for our first date of all places, had fun and then went to a nearby bar after drying up. We stayed there for four hours talking. She said she couldn't wait to see me again. We made out a few times that night and I'm excited. She's taller than me too. I'd say about 5'6 or so. 

So I guess Tinder can work for us shorties smiley

Limb Lengthening Surgery

Has anyone ever gotten limb lengthening surgery to grow taller or thought about doing it? If so, how did you get this done/afford the surgery, or do you know of any support group that may be able to help finance this?

Also, does anyone have any ideas on how to explain getting this surgery done to those close to you who have known you for years (friends, family, peers), so that they do not judge you negatively because of getting limb lengthening surgery? I am thinking it may be possible to help get some people who are close to me to help me finance this surgery if I explain this to them, though I am worried if they are unable to help me afford this surgery, that I will not have only explained to them that I wish to get this surgery to become taller, but that I won't even have the benefits of the surgery being completed.

This recent movie features 4 short guys playing lead roles

Daniel Radcliffe (5'5), Jesse Eisenberg (5'7), Mark Ruffalo (5'7) and James Franco (5'6) all starred in Now You See Me 2. We always talk about the lack of real action type roles for shorter guys, but four of them were in this one!

Actor Frankie Muñiz Loves Being Short

Frankie Muñiz Loves Being Short

"Frankie Muniz went to Twitter this morning to see if his fans had any questions for him. They did! Out of the generous list of answers Muniz gave, one stood out. In reply to one fan asking whether his height has ever bothered the “Malcolm In The Middle”/“Agent Cody Banks” actor, who is 5’5”, had this to say..."

Nice to see Frankie Muñiz is comfortable with himself and doesn't fall into the media crap.

Poll Feature Added

You can now create polls for everyone to participate in. Each time you create a thread, you will be asked whether or not you'd like to create a poll. Polls require the following:

1. Poll Question - The question you are looking to ask in order to receive input

2. Poll Options - The answers or choices to the Poll Question. There are two by default, but you can add as many as you like.

Note the "remove" button. Polls by default allow for two options. If you add more options but then change your mind, you can revert your way back to just two options. 

Once submitted, answers to the questions will display as percentages with reports of how many users answered being displayed next to those percentages. 

Happy Polling!

Custom Suits?

I've literally bought suit jackets and full suits from every major retailer you can think with the most recent being Uniqlo because they generally have smaller sizes. I can't seem to get the right fit though. Jackets are either too roomy underneath the arms, the bottom of the jacket is too long, or the sleeves are too long which is a problem because once the buttons come off the jacket is never the same. Pants are a bit easier. 

Can anyone recommend a great store (irl or online) that makes great fitting suits?

Trouble fining S and XS clothing?

Since I lost some weight, I can fit in to a small and in some cases, an extra small. I am a very slim dude. I have such a hard time finding clothing in this sizing that I usually end up buying mediums which I swim in. I am not talking day to day brands, but higher end ones. It is like they only make a limited amount in the smaller sizes. Anyone else have trouble with their sizes?

Height: A built in filter?

So obviously meeting and dating women who honestly don't mind a guy's height is rare.  But as someone pointed out to me once while I was lamenting about it, why would I want to date someone who's concerned with my height anyway?

It got me thinking, they were right. Height is an automatic filter that uses other people's discomfort at possibly liking a short guy to remove them from your dating pool. I know this sounds crazy, but think about it.... Would you really want to date someone that holds your height against you? Honestly??

So let people remove themselves from your presence, and what you are left with is gold as far as dating, friends and work.

Greetings neighbors.

I'm C.W.
Pleased to meet you all.

I'm a freelance post production audio professional and video editor on the west coast in the SF Bay Area. Like most of you, I get treated differently because of my height.  But at least we can fit into corvettes.
