Re: 5 foot 3 guy,feel depressed after going through so much discrimination

Hi. We're all different heights here and not fitting into cookie cutter ideas of what is acceptable appearance-wise socially is a difficult pill to swallow. I can't tell you to not feel down about the cards life has dealt you, but your attitude toward involving yourself in a bunch of activities and finding meaning from life beyond sex and relationships is a step in the right direction.

It's unfortunate that height is a deal breaker for many women and many of them (men included) will act as if height is trivial. They're unaware of the severity and impact of height bias because it's something they don't have to deal with and something they don't relate to. Ask them about racism, even if they don't experience, because they share something in common with people who do (i.e. skin color, ethnicity, etc), all of sudden it is sympathy-city.

As for relationships, it's a numbers game and you have to keep approaching. If online, tweak your dating profile, your clothes/fashion should be impeccable. I know it's not you but there is a 5'3 guy at my gym who is a police officer. He's been married twice (divorced twice as well) and even with that talks about how hard the dating scene is (he is 59).

Keep going and learn to deal. We all have to make the best of what we've been given and get the most out of life.

Welcome to the forum.

Re: What really really short men feel like when shopping for clothes (pic)

No. This only happens when short men buy extra large clothing for no reason. Fallon only did this for a gag.

Re: Shopping on Amazon (Asian sizes)

Just go by measurements. Literally take a tape measure and measure your sleeves, chest, back, etc. Then look at their size charts and order accordingly. You can't eyeball it.

Re: Monochromatic color scheme vs two/three toned?

Nothing makes you look "taller" but the wearing two bright contrasting colors will accent your stature. So wearing an orange shirt with red pants, that division between top and bottom with your short stature will make your short height stand out. Don't know if that makes sense.
