If you're short (5'6" and below) women expect you to be far superior to taller men, in all aspects other than height, to win their affection.

This is a waste of time for short men who don't have model-tier facial genetics.

Don't waste your time self-improving for women so you can earn yourself a 5-6/10 who's willing to settle after a lifetime of shitting on short guys.

Follow your interests, stack cash, get into Financial Independence Retire Early and be as successful and comfortable as you possibly can.

Women will basically never give you back what you put into them, so focus on markets with greater return potential.
