I'd rather not disclose my location at this point, but I am white and 5'7. 5'7, 3 inches below "average". Yet I am considered short as well, even though im pretty sure its just under one standard deviation below the mean. Yet now anyone even only slightly above average is considered short, 6' is now considered average, even though im pretty sure its about one standard deviation ABOVE the mean. That means theres more of us than them >:[

I'm also 5'7. I'm curious to know where you live that so many people are mistreating you for your height. I do get the occasioanl height joke and do not like it (no garmin here), but not to the point that I want to exterminate taller men.

I agree with this. Anytime I hear how they talk it is more or less a place to vent. You are paying for someone to listen. Yes, it can be helpful, but a friend should be just as qualified for it.

I never felt it was a problem. So many people view it like an illness and it is just rediculous.

Perseverance: a place for YOU

Hello dear The Lower View,

I'm making this post to raise awareness to our place on Discord called Perseverance. It's a server made for short guys, done the right way. Now, why should you join us? Well, we have:

  • strict moderation to keep trolls and larpers out
  • a simple vetting process to only let the right people (short guys) in
  • a positive attitude on life, we are not a BP/cel server
  • a special channel that deletes every message sent after 1h so you can scream in the void

If this sounds cool to you, you can go ahead and join us here:

https://discord.gg/rPyThqV7C5

See you soon!

Akaash Singh's wife lists her "hall pass" crushes. What do they all have in common?

Gee, what do they have that her "husband" doesn't have?
