For one, it claims Steve Jobs was 168cm, which is clearly false (he was 6'2).	1	562	Tue Jul 29, 2025 12:32 PM by TheLastInch

Heightism Height shaming isn't acknowledged by the greater society Started by AndyB Height shaming isn't acknowledged by the greater society The guy pictured here is Dynzell Sigers, a seemingly nice guy. Most of you know him by now. What makes him stand out is how open he was about his successful leg lengthening procedure. A former short king, he now stands at 6ft even. Quite striking when you consider his starting height was 5'5. You'd have to ask, what would make a man go this far? I'm not here to talk bad about the man. He says he was confident and comfortable with himself, but he knew what many of us know or take too long to figure out. If you look at the comments under his video where he always commits to full transparency, you will see comments like, "He's insecure", "why wouldn't he accept himself" and "all of this for what?". The people who say these things always forget to address, "where does that insecurity come from?". To be clear, Dynzell says he wasn't insecure and I believe him. There are so many stigmas that people acknowledge today, Depression, body dysmorphia, gender identity, weight, but very few acknowledge heightism, even those who claim to be the most progressive. Shaming men isn't considered forbidden, but actually encouraged. Kudos to Dynzell for concluding that he didn't want to fight this fight, he wanted to rid himself of the stigma once and for all and just live a normal life. Now, I personally wouldn't do leg lengthening, but I get it. I get it.	1	829	Sun Jul 21, 2024 07:51 AM by MrMclean
