"Poor Me"

I think it is pathetic when I see men having pity parties or crying online. They try to make a point and just don't make any sense. Part of the reason shorter men have it harder with women is because CONFIDENCE TURNS WOMEN ON! Why do you think women stay in bad relationships with cocky jerks? They are confident! There is no science to this people. Short or not, you need to man up, accept your flaws, and take a long damn look in the mirror. Looks don't get and keep women, confidence does.

This is really irking me.

You know, all this say that the short man makes minimal financial gain compared to the taller man really provokes me.  So, I wanted to ask:  What are career do you have?  or  What are you pursuing?

Is it fair to assume...

Is it fair to assume all bigger or fat women are lazy and unhealthy? I don't think it is. So why is it okay to assume all short men are depressed and desperate?

This is a good start for justice.

Woman, Blacks, LGBT, religion, Little People, etc. have already got a noticeable social justice.  Who's next? Maybe it could be us, along with taller women, whom are also deemed 'unattractive'.  I firmly believe we should be next on the cycle. I believe we should have justice.  A good start would be proposing new legislations that persecute 'heightist' ideals.  Namely, giving the ability for short men to participate more in media, such as modeling, leading roles in movies and shows, etc. i.e. more opportunities for us, as well as a better outlook.  Nonetheless, true that heightism may be an 'illusion'; however, it certainly takes role in 'love'.  The media poisoned the views of 'girls', making them judge us based on a characteristic that we cannot change; hence, we are deprived of affection, a feeling and a notion that ALL well-minded humans deserve.

Looking for a jacket brand

Anyone know a good brand for jackets that don't get to long? The one I have now is on the longer side and I prefer my jackets to hit right at my buckle so my shirts are slightly longer.

Tailor4Less

I have heard mixed thoughts on this place. I am in the market for a few new suites but I don't want to spend a crap ton of money. I am on a budget after all. Anyone shop with them before? Or can recommend another place like Tailor4Less?

Halloween Costumes!

I am starting this thread now. My boyfriend and I are debating on what to be so I am hoping to think of some great couples ideas. I will start a poll too, with themes of costume options, pick which one you are going to do, if you don't plan on dressing up, pick one you WOULD do if you did. 

Animal - Anything animal related that doesn't fit any other category

Pop-Culture - Music, Movie, and Television related (included video game characters)

Heroes/Villains - Anything related to super heroes or villains (think Marvel and DC)

Generic Horror - Ghosts, trolls, witches, vampires, ect.

Parody - Making fun of something or someone in a silly way

Other - It doesn't fit anywhere else

Egyptian Cotton

My boyfriend mentioned wanting a few Egyptian cotton dress shirts for his birthday. Anyone have any idea where to get them on the cheaper side and for more of a smaller/shorter torso fit?

Flirt worthy

I feel like I am stuck in this rut where women will find I am worthy of being flirted with but when it comes to dating or going on a date, I always get short down. This one woman was making sexual puns with me, telling me things she would like me to do to her then when I asked for her number, she suddenly had no working phone because she was "in between places". The kicker is, I saw her playing with her phone prior to approaching her. What gives? Am I getting mercy flirts or something!?

Height and Halloween?

Have you ever been the butt of some joke because of your height? Like saying "you should be ___ and he/she should be ___ for Halloween cause you are so short!". Someone told my friend, who is about 5'6, he should be mario and I should be luigi because of the height difference. It made him feel like shit.

Dress The Part!

I noticed one thing all men who are short and complain about not being able to meet women have in common... They do not know how to dress sexy. Yes, men can be sexy too, even short men, fat men, tall men, fit men, thin men... You get the point.

Prime example is Daniel Radcliffe in this leather jacket. Not even trying but his confidence is obvious.

Why is "tall" the first trait so many women ask for...

Also, being "tall" isn't really a trait! This basically sums it up. I can't even handle speaking with most of my girlfriends anymore because they have these views and as I have said on here, my boyfriend is short.

The BS of it all

Why are we underpaid? Why are we considered "okay" at best in the dating world? Why must both me and women make jokes about us? Why is it hard for us to find clothing that fits?

WHY!? All because we are short. It is something we have no control over.

Stats say shorter men...

-More eager to please, harder workers, more trust worthy, more likely to be faithful in a relationship, have more street smarts, pay attention to the people around them, are more open minded...

So wtf ladies!? Because we are short none of this matters?

Being a short man in America

I read this blog post and wanted to share a sad truth from it...

In the 23 years that have passed since then, I’ve come to two major conclusions about being a short man in North American society and they are thus: It sucks and no one wants to hear you complain about it.
