Height shaming

LAMFF · 2014-07-21T16:28:51+00:00

That isn't "short shaming" that is straight up short man hatred.

culofiesta · 2014-07-21T17:50:27+00:00

As a tall man I like hearing things like this. In the past women thought I wouldn't mind because it doesn't apply to me but it means I have license to openly ridicule fat women.

Disgusting, modern day feminism has create such a evil women, that now they can say and do what ever they want and face zero, absolutely ZERO social repercussions for their actions. What is worse, is that there are men that are willing do date/pay attention to such women.

squarehead93 · 2014-07-21T19:21:52+00:00

Someone here made a post discussing how there's no short acceptance, bald acceptance, or fat acceptance movement for men, despite the first two being something men can't really control, as opposed to women who choose to be promiscuous or not take care of their bodies.

When this dawned on me, this was the last straw for me and the reason I stopped considering myself a feminist. Feminists are trying to shame men into finding increasingly lower SMV women attractive, in spite of our biological instincts, by accusing us of one form or another of "shaming" if we don't. But these feminists, often the very same people, still follow (and even defend) their biological instinct to only consider the top 20% or so of men as romantic interests. With seemingly no sense of irony or hypocrisy, they'll happily shame short men and male virgins. If they find you unattractive you can be called a "creep."

And you know what? I understand why they do all this and wouldn't force them to change. I'm 5'3". I understand and accept that many women may find me less attractive simply because of my height. I can work out, wear flattering clothes, and be successful, but that's not gonna make me grow. I don't have a defeatist attitude about it. In fact it's comforting to know there are still ways I can make myself more attractive. But I am at peace with the fact that my height will generally not be considered an attractive feature of mine. I don't expect women to find me attractive for things I can't help, such as my height. All I expect in return is that I'm not shamed into accepting women with traits I find unattractive that they can help, such as a high partner count or obesity.

Niemamnick · 2014-07-21T18:39:17+00:00

The worst, most obnoxious characteristic about the modern woman is her entitlement.

Modern woman: "I want a six foot tall man who is tanned, in shape, who drives his own car and has a great, stable job"

Niemamnick: "well, can you cook, can you take care of children, are you any intelligent, are you kind, virtuous, are you feminine?"

Modern woman: "OMG you pig! Cooking is like, slavery and a (insert swearing here) relic. Children are loud and annoying. My body, my choice! Of course I am intelligent, I went to an university and like, was in a fraternity. I am a strong, confident woman who doesn't need anyone. I am great in bed because I like, had like 300 lovers while in college. You don't deserve me!"

esproductions · 2014-07-21T16:47:11+00:00

It's almost a positive to be short, so you can avoid these crazy ass bitches.

lucifa · 2014-07-21T19:24:31+00:00

These girls are clearly too good for Jason Statham, George Clooney and Johnny Depp. Utter sub-human manlets.

mordanus · 2014-07-21T18:46:49+00:00

5'6" guy here. This shit is hilarious to me. For the most part women say they want x,y, or z but when you come at them with a dominant confidant attitude they still want you. When I was in high school I did music a lot and all the chicks loved me. Because I had some preselection then even more loved me. They can hate on short guys all they want because in reality it is just a shit test. They will still come around if your smv is high enough.

I still believe being tall would count in my favor but being short isn't that bad. Also tall women are kind of gross in my opinion. They all look gangly like Olive Oyl

R_E_D_1 · 2014-07-21T18:21:28+00:00

LOL let 'em have their short man hate. Some of a short man's top prospects may become unavailable, but most of a slut's top prospects disappear once her history comes out. This is just a few women (and a few trolls no doubt) shooting bb guns at the monolith of masculine energy.

Redpiller456 · 2014-07-21T16:48:01+00:00

God, this is awful. LAMFF is right, this is absolute hatred.

It is my personal opinion that confident, secure people don't attack others about something they don't have control over. This is projection of insecurity.

Not to mention, only ~14.5% of men are 6 feet tall or above in America and just 3.9% are 6'2'' and above. http://gladwell.com/blink/why-do-we-love-tall-men/ Yet, some of these morons want any man under 6' put down, or claiming that they shouldn't reproduce. Seriously nuts.

And it's really a shame too, because some of this short man hate is culturally perpetuated. You see some comments where women will find a short man attractive, hot, etc, but then dismiss him outright just because of the perceived social repercussions of being seen with a shorter man.

DoxasticPoo · 2014-07-21T19:07:53+00:00

As a short dude (5'5"), I can very much attest to the way the world (and especially women) look at us.

It sucks. But whatever. I'm not interested in fat chicks and we have every right to not be attracted to them. So do women have every right to not be attracted to short dudes. (of course... there is the main difference -> I can't just go to the gym and/or stop stuffing my face in order to become more attractive... but at least I can practice my RP'n)

So whatever. Fuck 'em. They have every right to their opinion just as I have every right to mine.

Do I think they're idiots? Yes. Am I going to spend more than the time it took write this post on their BS? Nope.

I'm going to the gym.

My entire life I never thought once "hmm.. I'm kinda short" I'm 5'9"

My sister and my mother started short shaming me around 18-19 Y.o. If I defended myself like "uhh.. I'm pretty average I think guys.. not sure what your talking about", they would dig deeper and laugh saying I'm in denial etc. Say I have little man syndrome when I would get a temper, etc.

After years of it, I nearly developed an insecurity based on height.. and I'm telling you it never even once crossed my mind that other people were taller than me. Sorta like how tits are non-existent to a ass-man.

Edit: I have dated 6ft+ women.. height is not an issue for a confident man. ESPECIALLY when height is the last thing on YOUR mind. Fuck what others think about.

The hypocrisy in that twitter account makes me so happy that I'm 5'11 and taller than most women. Short women hating on short guys. At least when we fat shame, it's because people can become skinnier. It is impossible for a short person to naturally grow taller if he is past his teenage years.

FallenHighSchoolJock · 2014-07-21T19:23:10+00:00

Funny, height, one of the few things a man has little to NO control over and has NO reflection on the decisions a man has made is what women care about. Meanwhile we're epecting to accept morbidly obese cows as beautiful when weight and bodyfat is the #1 thing someone can control through making responsible decisions.

dicklord_airplane · 2014-07-21T21:29:50+00:00

so I'm short at 5'7" and this was a little disturbing at first. but then you keep reading and realize that these people need to put down others in order to feel good about themselves, and it's pathetic. it's good that these people are so clearly revealing that they are shitty people.

anonlymouse · 2014-07-21T17:07:37+00:00

They'll just say it's false equivalency without actually understanding what that is.

A much better argument is this: http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2014/5/29/slut-shaming-study.html

And this: http://crs1981.wordpress.com/2014/06/16/i-cant-get-laid/

Feminist virgin shaming is a better example to contrast complaining about slut shaming. Also, pointing out that slut shaming is actually done by women rather than men goes a long way.

Sunshinelorrypop · 2014-07-21T17:22:02+00:00

Now that racism is socially unacceptable, bigots have to move onto more acceptable appearance discrimination. Height and hair colour are usually good escapes for them.

weirdnamedindian · 2014-07-21T23:44:24+00:00

I remember a conversation from long ago with my sisters - here is how it went -

Me - I'm short! That's why the girls don't like me and don't want to date me. It sucks!

Them - This is not true! Girls don't care about these things! You're confident, you're funny and you can get any girl you want because girls like that more than care about how tall a guy is. Plus, your 5'5 height is not that bad! It could be worse! You could be shorter than 5'5!

Me - You know that's so true! Thanks girls! Man, I feel much better now. Hey, by the way, our mate, Jake (not real name) - you girls like him, he's confident and funny. If he asks either of you out, I bet you'll will say yes, huh?

Them - Jake? Ewww, he's so short though!

Me - (thoughts in my own head) - He's my height!!

RPObjectiveAura · 2014-07-22T01:22:58+00:00

I bet you every last one of those girls would give Peter Dinklage a blow job just so they could take a selfie with Tyrion Lannister*

whatsazipper · 2014-07-21T23:16:27+00:00

If stuff like this bothers you, go outside. You're letting the internet foster a pointless insecurity. I guarantee you if you spent enough time with people who aren't socially retarded, you'll see that average height and short height men date women regularly.

Unplug when you've found yourself drenched in the information cesspool.

lloopy · 2014-07-22T00:13:15+00:00

The difference, of course, is that the woman can choose whether or not she's a slut, whether or not she's fat.

Short guy is just short.

variableLt · 2014-07-21T18:27:19+00:00

Fuck those counts. Eliminating a potential partner based on one characteristic shows poor decision making apparatus. Avoid such shallow creatures and you will be golden. Even though I am a tall guy these outbursts are borderline stupid.

bbidabbong · 2014-07-21T18:57:52+00:00

I am 5,7 so I am somewhere on borderline between short and not short.

But anyway these kind of thinking is coming from intellectually cripled humans. Wishing to met them in person, just to see.

myschadenfreude · 2014-07-21T18:09:19+00:00

Lol I've no use for Twitter, tumblr, etc. If it wasn't handy to contact friends I'd nuke my Facebook too. Social media has allowed people with get together and fans the flames of their own idiotic ideas.

I'm going to go take a walk outside (things like that are webby I'm not fat, go figure)

-TheRedPillar- · 2014-07-21T21:35:18+00:00

As a short dude. Fuck these women. They still come crawling when I flaunt some money around.

K3R3G3 · 2014-07-21T21:40:20+00:00

I'd edit your post to also include this account, which is actually active. (They have only single digit followers.) The one you posted hasn't retweeted anything for nearly 2 years.

2014-07-21T22:13:57+00:00

I'm a 5'6 Asian guy so I love this shit man. They say personality is what counts, but what gets our foot in the door is a bunch of superficial bullshit. Height, skin color, whatever.

It's all good because while many girls think I'm automatically gross, some still like me. I bet if I were 5'0 and Asian I'd be a maniac by now though. Just gotta lift a shitload of weights and remember that these cunts are weaker and dumber yet so demanding, aka retarded.

elStoogeDR · 2014-07-22T00:19:40+00:00

I'm a 5'10" guy here. I don't think too much about this. I'm sure it sucks if girls pass you over because you're too short but if you hang on (and make money,) there will be a time you will surpass these chicks on the totem pole. All they have is their looks (for the most part) and when that fades, they're pretty much finished. They say the best revenge is to live well. Wouldn't that be sweet if you did?

Panzer_Geist · 2014-07-22T01:13:44+00:00

Woah that sucks. This has been eye opening for me. At 6'7'' I've pretty much always been "the tall guy". Heck in high school the basketball coach wanted me to stop playing football and play basketball instead just because of my height.

I've never really realized that being short is such a massive disadvantage. I mean yeah if you're a guy and you're below 5'10 you're shit out of luck but is it really THAT bad?!

cali_gunner · 2014-07-22T15:17:21+00:00

Why do you short men let the height issue "get you down" so much? Deal with this like any other shit test - if you cry about it you fail. Think about strong short men who you can "look up" to - I would look at Danny DeVito as one, even though he's a legal midget he walks and talks like he's six foot three, the magical height that would fix all your problems. Napoleon Bonaparte another. Even Wee-man from Jackass pulled ass. I don't care if these are celebrities, you need more than just your reputation to get laid, you have to be able to carry the conversation and look her in the eyes.

PrisonerOfLife · 2014-07-22T04:32:07+00:00

Jay Cutler - 5'8"

Kai Greene - 5'8"

Phil Heath - 5'9"

Flex Wheeler - 5'9"

Proof that lanklets can't win at bodybuilding.

Overzealous_BlackGuy · 2014-07-22T02:50:34+00:00

Most of those women are pretty basic and half of them are just e-thuggin , majority of them are not in a position to talk mens height like they had a wide selection of men to choose frowning the first place.

2014-07-22T03:04:35+00:00

I personally know a couple short guys that get laid regularly. Height is undeniably an advantage, but you need more than one ingredient to make a cake.

like_a_ghost · 2014-07-22T12:34:27+00:00

Wait, is this real? I mean, I knew that women always say they want a tall guy and no short guys, but I didn't realize some literally hate and despise short guys. Some of those tweets are just cruel to say about anybody regardless of their height.

scottlapier · 2014-07-22T12:38:24+00:00

we should make a bunch of dummy tinder profiles featuring jacked guys (or ourselves) and then say that we're 5'4", 5'3" and shit like that while spitting game and see what she thinks.

Ozymandias30 · 2014-07-22T17:02:48+00:00

Things like this are great for destroying the blue pill limescale that builds up around your heart. Every time you feel guilty about freezing out that girl because her jugs aren't big enough, just remember that if she were taller than you then she would probably feel like the girls in the link.

thelandofdreams · 2014-07-23T00:05:58+00:00

Being a short man is extremely difficult. Women are allowed to HATE you. There is no "short acceptance" movement for you, no "real women dig midgets" posters. Women will not be called shallow or sexist for ignoring you. Disdain and cruelty towards you is casually accepted among females circles. I'm not even talking about being ignored, I'm talking about women proactively going out of their way to ridicule and other you.

And yet, as a man enduring western liberal academia, you are told your whole life, from a young age, by solipsistic feminist teachers that "since you are a man you are extremely privileged and will get special treatment from all parts of society".

Then you encounter reality, where women treat you like you have leprosy, men will often abuse you verbally and physically since you are an easy target, and you get told to fuck off for simply being POLITE. Women will call you creepy for saying "hello" to them or asking their name. Then, on top of all this shit, you have to read feminists talk about how oppressed they are and how privileged YOU are.

But short guys have a huge advantage. Since no one gives them respect, they have to take it, earn it, live it with every bit of strength they have. They have to learn not to think less of themselves, to love themselves for who they are. Unlike being a land whale who stuffs Twinkies down her face all day and complains that men who won't fuck her are misogynistic, being born short is something you can never change, and is in no way your fault. You have to deal with it.

In the end, you learn how to stand taller than anyone who was born with it.

Spiderman48 · 2014-07-21T18:46:52+00:00

I'm so thankful I'm above average height. It must suck to be a short dude.

For you shorties out there, don't let it get you down, it is a disadvantage but I've definitely seen short guys that are successful with women.

Timmy2kx · 2014-07-22T02:09:33+00:00

I'm 5'6 and my redpillgirlfriend is 6'3. I thank god everyday I don't have to deal with this bullshit anymore. Especially dating sites always on dating sites.

Kingkarlo · 2014-07-22T08:22:24+00:00

This is just more evidence of what feminism has done to the modern woman. Oh you deserve a fit, 6 foot man even though you are fat, lazy, and have been riding the carousel since the day blood started coming out your cunt? Bullshit! And it leaves short guys like us in a tough place. But you know what? You just gotta be extra alpha to make up for it. I'm still way stronger than any of em, I'd love to see one of these cunts say this shit to my face, lets see if they can still insult me through a wired shut jaw.

DTDtwopoint0 · 2014-07-21T19:40:08+00:00

Manlets. When will they ever learn?

Crazywhite352 · 2014-07-21T18:26:16+00:00

Times like these I'm glad I'm over 6 foot...

altra_hex · 2014-07-22T04:33:43+00:00

As much as they claim to hate short men, give them a chance to fuck someone like Napoleon Bonaparte, and they will suddenly forget all about it. Status still rules above all else with the bitches.

FallenHighSchoolJock · 2014-07-22T08:28:29+00:00

You do realize that you're specifically searching out posts about women hating short men right? Of course you're going to find them!

JewSupremacist · 2014-07-21T20:36:04+00:00

To be perfectly fair... and I am NOT condoning these cunts' tweets... but I do think short men are more likely to be assholes. Perhaps because of attitudes like these? I don't know. But I don't think the short hate is completely unjustified.

sumfacilispuella · 2014-07-21T21:50:57+00:00

So just thinking, I know y'all are always bitching about fat chicks who are too picky and want tall guys, or regular girls who only go for 6+. Then you say that's not fair, you can lose weight, you can't get taller. True. But this is true for your offspring as well. Your wife might raise fat kids but they can lose weight. If your husband is short, your kids will probably be short, and there's no making them taller.

Edit: thought this was r/short

Traz_Onmale · 2014-07-21T17:33:44+00:00

"Feminists, your argument is invalid because some random bitches were trolling short men on twitter."
