Why do people put dwarves and short guys in the same category?
Someone tell me why people call me a "midget" and I am not that far from average. I do not understand why people would call a guy who is 5'5-5'9 a midget when they aren't really that small..... |

Hi Everyone
Hi, I found this site through the short reddit awhile back and wanted to finally say hi. I'm 36 years old. I am an administrator, professor, writer, and I like the vibe of this place and can't wait to share and learn from others. Jonathan |

Cotto/Martinez fight
The ol boy won after being knocked out 4 times and is now relevant again. He now is the first Puerto Rican boxer to win belts in four weight classes. Even though he lost to Mayweather, Cotto is my favorite fighter. He's saying its the best performance of his career. What do you think of the fight? |

P90X & Insanity
Has anyone tried any of these fitness programs out? I have tried p90X in the past and it did help me get more in shape, which was great. I was wondering if anyone here has ever tried either workout program and if so, how was it for you? Did you do the whole 90 days for P90x and or did you do the whole 60 days for insanity? |

What can I do to make myself more attractive?
I'm 5'1 and weigh 120 lbs. I don't any clue about fashion and clothes don't fit me anyway. I'm 23 and am finishing up my B.S. in Engineering from a top 20 university located in New York. I don't have many friends here in school and from reading a lot of things online, I don't think my young adult life will be all that great. I feel like my height is holding me back in everything but academics.
I thought about getting Leg Lengthening surgery as soon as I could afford it, but if did the recommended 3 inches, I'd still only be 5'4 which isn't anywhere near average. Is there anything I can do at 5'1 to make myself more attractive to women. How do I learn how to socialize? |

Coworker won't get off of my case!
Everybody I tell this to won't take me seriously. There is a coworker at work that has a major crush on me and she won't leave me alone. She'a always winking at me when I come to work. She blows kisses to me, always tries to have conversation with me and asks me out repeatedly. Even though I've told her that I have a girflriend and am not interested in her whatsoever, she still makes passes at me and isn't discreet about it either.
So my birthday day was a few weeks ago and I got a present delivered to my desk. Baseball tickets. I thought my girlfriend sent them to me so I called my GF to tell her thanks only for her to get mad and tell me she didn't send them to me. So now I'm in trouble! Later that night, I got a mesage on Facebook from my co-worker (she isn't my friend on FB) wishing me well and telling me she sent the tickets. I told her no thank you and that I would give them back to her. She refused but later changed her mind and said she was sorry for being unprofessional. I thought that was it.
Wrong! It's not as often as before, but at least once a week she will ask me out, send notes to my desk, and once she even grabbed my butt while I was walking to one of the back offices. I don't know what to do now. My girlfriend trusts me, so I am okay with that. But it seems like me telling this woman to stop is not working. I am wondering whether or not I should contact my GM or what my next step should be.

Anyone excited about the new TNMT movie!
As you might be able to tell by my SN, I am Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles obsessed! I was not a huge fan of the 90s movie series and early 2000s dark remake of the original cartoon series. The original comics from the mid 80s were great, but the cartoon and storyline of the original cartoons from the late 80s were the best!
RIP Uncle Phil, voice of the original Shredder!
Anyone pumped for the new movie coming out this August? Which was your favorite series or movie? |

Did you feel intimidated?
While in college, did any of you's feel intimidated by others? Maybe it was ones who were taller than you, or women who just didn't like you because of being short. I myself had been very intimidated while attending college and I hated it a lot. Who here felt the same way as me? |

Does money or good looks or good income make a difference?
What makes a difference for a 5'6" guy for women to accept his height or date him? Good looks, money, high income, education, or great personality matter? Why there is hope? Some women say good looks and good income make up for a little bit of short height. |

Running for President on a school committee. Any tips?
I'm running for President of an organization at my college and am going up against a 6'5 guy who wants to the same position. He is using my height against me as a reason as to why he would make a better leader.
I don't want to stoop to his level (if it is possible since he is so tall |

Discuss anything in our forums!
Just red about this place on the Daily Dot and signed up right away.
), but we have a debate next week. The last time him and I were at a party for this organization, a few of his friends poked fun at me which made me look kind of dumb in front of everyone else. So far everyone agrees me with on the issues, but I need to find a way to stop him in his tracks if he makes snide comments again in front of an audience. Can any of you help?
