in other news water is wet and the sky is blue.  the extremely frustrating thing is that so many  people are in complete denial of the truth about this common social phenomena and will attempt to gaslight anyone who claims that a mans height puts him in a severe disadvantage in many areas of life, especially in the dating market.
