It sounds like people were blown away and social cues change (positively).

Phenomenal video. I like how he talks about the people who end up being "mad" at him for getting the surgery.

I understand why this is also. It's because the guy was able to "beat the system".

I know women who get upset with other women who get the gastric bypass surgery or breast implants.

This is especially pronounced when the woman in question had the body shape her friend had pre-operation.

I'm not mad at the guy though. 5'7 is short, but is miles away from 5'4. Some airforce ones and he's barely below average, especially with his ethnicity.

Thorough and honest only the way a shorter guy could express.

When average height and taller people get in on this conversation, they just cannot conceive that people are treated drastically different because of how long their legs are.

The exception to this is someone who was a late bloomer. Someone posted a psychologist who recalled how people treated him so much differently after he had a late growth spurt.

One thing that stood out to me from what he said was that people started to "listen to him more" and that they "took what he said much more seriously".

This guy here didn't even get that much taller, but it was worlds away from the height he was before.

It's still not something I'd ever do, but he has my respect.

Short people thrown into a conversation about eugenics on national news

Horrible that shortness is being touted as a disability, but the representative makes a good point about people (really women) doing this naturally anyway. It only becomes a problem though when men are the ones choosing the traits they want their offspring to inherit.

"Don't make height your entire personality"... Meanwhile: Tall people

An entire convention. And of course, short women are there.

You know if we had a meetup, there would be no admiration. Just jokes.

Why do people refuse to accept the struggles of short men?

I made a post on reddit, in some big sub. I tried to make an honest appeal to the normies there. I talked about the struggles short men face, and I didn't even bring up dating. I linked several statistics and talked about difficulties at the work place, bullying, depression and suicide rates, etc

The post got downvoted and nobody addressed any of the arguments. Some guy in the comments said I wrote it with chat GPT, which is hilarious considering it was very obviously not AI, and half the top posts there are AI. I got one gaslighting comment talking about how short guys live longer or something

Reddit is generally left wing. Aren't they supposed to care about oppression?

At least the right is honest.

Study claims people will forget you are short if you walk tough.

Study from Northumbria University claims to have found a solution to what they percive to be an "insecurity".

You can find the VICE article which mentions said study here
