Re: What I can't stand is when height insults are dismissed as a joke Thread Starter

Does anyone notice this? Especially in work-related or peer group settings, insults about someone's height are passed off as a "joke", and if you speak up on it, you get told that you're sensitive. How sway?

If you take any height joke and put any other quality about someone, weight, complexion, income, education, those become fireable or otracizeable offenses. "It's just a joke bro".

Whether it be in the movies, online, in print or viewable media, just the sheer idea that someone is short is somehow "hilarious".

It's become normalized.

You could say I don't find the humor in it because I am short, but you could say the same to anyone who is the recipient of any insult.

Re: 6'4 therapist reflects on late growth spurt and how he was treated Thread Starter

Very insightful video from a level-headed tall guy who didn't let his ego cloud his judgment on the how and why about the way people treated him changed after he grew taller so late in adolescence.

Re: 6'6 man says yes, women constantly mock short men in his presence

I have a tall friend, about 6'2 who talks about this all of the time.

He says that when around him, women dog out short guys constantly.

I even remember there was this woman I liked, a mutual friend of ours. She told him I was "short and annoying" and that she couldn't stand whenever I'd come around. What was crazy is that she'd talk to me casually whenever we were in class.

My friend had no reason to hate on me, so it was mind boggling.

While the guy in the video is a bit cringey, I believe him!
