"I was out shopping today, and I saw one of the saddest things ever. There was a short guy with his girlfriend, they were both approximately 5"6" inches tall. The guy was perfectly good looking, he was 'handsome' in every way, he looked like a young Pierce Brosnan, but he was just quite short. He was the kind of guy you would expect to see with a goodlooking girlfriend, but this was not the case. His girlfriend was butt ugly. I don't even mean just bad looking, she was repulsive to look at. She was at least 300lbs of pure lard. I felt sick just looking at her.
I felt really sorry for the guy because he has been screwed over by genetics, and because of this he has to settle for someone far less attractive than him. He got everything else right in terms of looks, but it seemed like his height had pushed him way down into the bottom league."

What are your thoughts on this?

Morning!

Looking for a bit of (silly) advice. I just started dating a guy 4 inches shorter than me and I haven't quite mastered the hugging part. I just don't want to make him feel awkward. Should my arms go over the shoulders or try to get under his arms? Usually guys I've dated are my height or taller and my arms end up around my partner's waist...

I feel silly asking - but too awkward at this early stage to ask him directly.

So.... what's the general preference?

You know what's funny about knowing what a girl REALLY wants.  You'll see posts/pictures/quotes etc. stating the guy has to have:

A. A sense of humor.

B. Take care of himself, along with his girl. 

And... you guessed it, C FOR CONFIDENCE!!! YAY. 

C. Confidence.

But you know what guys?  It's all bullshit.

Girls want height.  That's all they want, that's all they really care about.

Lets be real here guys, you see that cute girl, absolutely adorable, dating a 5'10+ fuck-up who has no sustainability and disrespects his girl. 

A dude can have all the 'caring' and 'stability' traits as well as having high aspirations, yet if he has no height, then it's still a 'no' for the girl.

I'm sorry guys.  I know I'm making generalization here, but this applies to 95% to girls and to short men.

That's it, I'm done with girls.  And no, I'm not 'turning' gay.

Go to the post and view the comments. No, there isn't a lot but it goes to show even women who do prefer taller men will date short men. Also, height isn't everything to all of them. Stuff like this makes me feel better because I swear, I get shot down by women who go for tall men more than anything.

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?

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.

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. 

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.
