Any chance Cosmopolitan will have a cover saying "Short Men Are Hot"?

Cosmopolitan Magazine | Body Positivity | This Is Healthy | Short King | TheLowerView

Apparently, Cosmopolitan Magazine ran these covers right after the pandemic (2021).

This is part of their push to change the narrative of what's attractive. At least, that's how I take it.

Any chance they will "push the boundaries" and influence their readers to love "short kings"?

I'm being sarcastic, but I couldn't help but look at these covers and laugh.

You can find the stories in Cosmopolitan here.

You can find an article from the Independent where they cover a defense of the cover by Cosmopolitan here

We can all agree this will never, ever happen.

At best, you'll get the occasional super-talented short guy in any entertainment sector who women will overlook their height (for the moment).

You'll never see a global campaign not just body acceptance for short dudes, but to attempt to change society's definition of attractiveness they way they're doing with fat women.

Trump will send 5,000 troop the Straits of Hormuz. Ah yes, the find out phase.

I'm aged out of the draft (anything is possible when war gets ugly though), but the average height and taller dudes better not cower. 

Ditto on the Trump bone spurs comment. Didn't Clinton (6'2) also evade the Vietnam draft and George W (6') after him enlist in the Texas air national guard to avoid combat since his student deferment was in question?

Thought we were the ones over-compensating? Lol.
