She says it's okay to shame men for things they can't control.

She says it's "right" to shame based on people's preferences.

News Reporters laugh at "very small man".

Someone people explain why this is supposed to be funny.

Height shaming isn't acknowledged by the greater society

The guy pictured here is Dynzell Sigers, a seemingly nice guy. Most of you know him by now.

What makes him stand out is how open he was about his successful leg lengthening procedure.

A former short king, he now stands at 6ft even. Quite striking when you consider his starting height was 5'5.

You'd have to ask, what would make a man go this far? I'm not here to talk bad about the man.

He says he was confident and comfortable with himself, but he knew what many of us know or take too long to figure out.

If you look at the comments under his video where he always commits to full transparency, you will see comments like, "He's insecure", "why wouldn't he accept himself" and "all of this for what?".

The people who say these things always forget to address, "where does that insecurity come from?". To be clear, Dynzell says he wasn't insecure and I believe him.

There are so many stigmas that people acknowledge today, Depression, body dysmorphia, gender identity, weight, but very few acknowledge heightism, even those who claim to be the most progressive. Shaming men isn't considered forbidden, but actually encouraged.

Kudos to Dynzell for concluding that he didn't want to fight this fight, he wanted to rid himself of the stigma once and for all and just live a normal life. 

Now, I personally wouldn't do leg lengthening, but I get it. I get it.

Two bald dudes ask women if they'd date thelowerview.

Many of the participants were pretty open. I believe the ones who said they were currently dating a short king. The others I believe just told the hosts what they wanted to hear.

Guy goes on a rant, but is he wrong though?

This guy has come to the conclusion that every short guy does when they become aware of how dating works.

5’3” Raymison Bruno takes down 6’7” Roger Dalet in MMA fight

It's almost as if the organization said him being 6'8 was enough to qualify for this fight. Skill will win every single time.

Kevin Hart just can't escape it...

Mr. Beast is a pretty stand up guy so I know he didn't mean any wrong, but no matter what Kevin Hart does, it wil always come back to that.

Is there such thing as "fragile" or "toxic femininity"?

Shorter guys routinely get called out for having alleged "little man syndrome" and for having fragile egos for either "feeling intimidated" by or refusing to be open to dating women significantly taller. First off, the number of women who are willing to do this at any height is is infinitesimal. We're talking about a super tiny minority. But even for those who are open, again, men are called out for their supposed insecurities around this. I personally am okay with dating taller women. 

Now what about the opposite. All of these women who refuse to date shorter guys, or have said things like, "what am I going to do with him", "I'd squish him", or "I just can't see myself dating a shorter guy"; why aren't they called out for their toxic femininity? Isn't that also an insecurity? Or is it different because you know, insecurity only matters in men?

Short men have just as many sex partners as their taller counterparts

According to a study published in "Evolutionary Psychology" by two researchers from Chapman University, "taller men do not have a history of more sex partners than average height or short men", that is if you are at least 5'4. Numbers decrease steadily thereafter.

The researchers due to their own positive that they would find as assumed that taller men would fair better, but this wasn't the case.
