Magazine credits Putin being responsible for the rise of short kings

... And unsurprisingly accuses him of having a "Napoleon Complex".

"Over the years Putin has sought to portray a tough-guy image in a series of infamous photoshoots, but "even the best publicity stunts cannot alter reality – or in this case, Putin's average height"."

What else is new....

Meanwhile, we've had plenty of tall presidents here who were responsible for starting wars and none of them were ever accused of having some kind of "complex".

You can't make stuff like this up.

Imagine writing a guide for dealing with hefty women?

Medium Magazine article blames men for women rejecting short men

What else is new. From the article:

"Being tall is one of the standards of masculinity as defined by the patriarchy"

Also from the article:

"Men might be passed over because they’re 5’6”, while women are dismissed (and often cruelly so) if they weigh more than 120 pound. I'm not sure how women reject shorter men, but it can't be worse than being told you're a hideous fat pig that no one would ever want to sleep with".

What does that have to do with us?
