After noticing how evil short women can be about a man's height, I wondered if it was in my best interest to only date (or try to date) tall women and women of average height. Women 5'3 and up tend to care less about my height than women shorter. Do you notice the same? When I hear little women say they only want to date tall men so their kids can be tall (which doesn't always happen), it kind of makes me want to do the same, especially since I'm short for a guy (but not as short as these short women who tell me to get lost).

I hate the US's tall culture. Everywhere on TV you see TALL.

Tall models, tall athletes, tall everybody.

People see all this nonsense and think absurd things like "6'0 is short"

Average height is much better than tall.

Short guys have some advantages over tall guys such as a longer life expectancy.

Had this moment yesterday at a family cookout. I was sort of a reunion. Can't tell you how I felt after a whole bunch of my younger family members bragged that they grew past me. You think a fat women would tell other fat family members and friends "oh, I just went past you, I'm thinner than you now". 

This insensitivity towards something you can't change versus something that can easily be changed is unbelievable. 

alot of Youtube Pranks have guys hitting on random girls and going up to random girls, if a guy is on the short side, a girl is almost always going to be rejectful of him and if a guy is on the tall side, a girl is going to always be open to him, seeing this has really made me realize what I have been missing out on and it has made me bitter

Something I've always noticed is that men who are like 5'9-5'10 and even 6' wish they were taller yet. Why do people deny heightism when people who are already average want to be taller to reap the social benefits that come along with it?

Why do people insist that short guys are somehow always "angry"? Most short people I know are more friendly and easy going where as a lot of the taller people I've known were usually the bully type (especially if I just happened to do something better than they have). 
 

Is it a defense mechanism to boost their own confidence by labelling short guys as having inferiority complexes?

I've actually had people tell me to not wear vertical stripes because it would make me look shorter.

Duh, I am short. There is no "illusion" that will make me look taller outside of wearing lifts.

It simply does not matter. If you like wearing vertical stripes, then wear them. That's all. Damn!

back in the day, most basketball players were average height. now most are pushing 7' yet they haven't changed the rules of the game. doesn't this give basketball players an unfair advantage? if they raised the hoop to like 10' wouldn't it be more challenging? don't tell me that the 6 footers are really good. i know this but they curve smaller basketball players for this very reason it's not like football
