Re: How do your mother or female family members feel about your height?
post #11

I remember when I addressed my height as a concern of mine to my parents.  I was a junior in college and home for Thanksgiving break and feeling sorry for myself as I hadn't had much luck with the ladies up to that point. I played on the rugby team and went to lots of parties but didn't seem to attract women so I was getting frustrated.  I remember telling them how the girls seemed to like my friends a lot more and how I was almost invisible. My father, who's tall (about 6'), thought I needed to talk to more women and "get out there" and interact more. My mom, 5'2", got upset and started going on and on to my Dad about how screwed up society is and how tall men all have it made.  She was very supportive and loving and wanted to help me. It was odd because up to that point I had suspicions that tall=advantage but I never thought it would hinder me from finding "the one".  I love my parents but I wondered if my mom being a short, attractive women ever had a heightist attitude toward men and found her "tall" guy in my Dad. I wonder if heightist women out there find it difficult to interact with male family and friends who happen to be short.  It's more interesting when the topic hits home!!!

She\'s framing it this way to make it look like she\'s making some kind of educated point, but the reality is, she most likely really does think this.

How long was your longest relationship and why did you break up?

We talk a lot about the trashy content that rage-baiters put out because it's pitifuly entertaining at this point, but I know a lot of you date. Hell, I date. I may not get as much play as my taller friends, but I've had a few girlfriends and generally do okay meeting women organically. Dating apps are game over however.

On that note, as the title says, how long was your longest relationship, and why did you break up?

Mine was two years and we broke up because our lifestyles were too different. I was into the gym and she lacked ambition. The breakup was amicable.

You know what the response would be in the corporate world if this were a male manager frolicking around the office with a scale asking women to step on it.
