Re: What advice would you give your son if he was short in today's time? Thread Starter

This message is really for the older guys on the forum. I'm in college in New York City, and dating isn't impossible, but there are challenges as a lot of the girls here are pretty blatantly vocal about their distaste for shorter guys. I don't get much issues with respect as I have a good circle of friends, though I come across some jerks from time to time.

I've read on other forums how dating was easier for shorter guys back in the day. How true is this and as my question says, if your son was short in today's time, what advice would you give him?

Re: Why is it some women won't admit they're shallow and gaslight instead? Thread Starter

What I mean is, there are hundreds of thousands of videos on YouTube, Tik-Tok and Facebook of women insulting short men and expressing their unwillingness to give them a chance, but when you talk about this, they insist this doesn't happen?

These videos and memes get liked and shared thousands of times daily, but if you bring this up by calling them out on this, you either get crickets or "most women aren't like this, you must hate women", etc. Similar content aimed at women which criticize their behavior, bodies or life choices get shaming language or threats to cancel.

As a guy in college, I'd like to know why we can't even bring this up.

I'm not some incel, I get dates, but it baffles me that people can't have honest conversation about something that everyone knows happens.

Re: Austin Dunham - "Here's what your height says about you".

I guess he should have said, "from the perspective of someone who is tall".

I don't think anything he's said has described me. Everything he said to say about guys under 5'6 was negative.

Re: Older men on the board. What was college dating like for you? Thread Starter

College dating is tough. In High School, I was an extrovert. I still am, but it seems like even the shortest women want tall men. At my college, there is this one girl I was interested in. We chat each other up all of the time in class and she seemed interested. When I asked her out on a date, she told me that she had a boyfriend. Saw her with her boyfriend (first time seeing them together) a week later on campus after our Spring Break and he had to be at least 6'4. The girl? 5'1.

I went to a party two weeks ago, chatted up another girl here (we never met before), and when I asked for her number, she busted out laughing saying she could never see herself with a guy as short as me. How embarrassing it was! This woman, not to be mean wasn't even my type. All of this happened in front of a few of my buddies. They laughed also.

It wasn't like this in High School. My older brother is two inches taller than me and told me he never had problems dating in college. Some of my taller friends tell me that it's all in my head. I'm generally liked by a lot of my schoolmates, but unlike High School, it seems like every woman wants to only date taller men.

All is not bad though. I had a date this week and it went okay. She says she wanted to see me again, but her body language didn't match what she said and she was on her phone through most of the date.

For the older guys here, was it like this when you were in uni? What advice do you have?
