Does this TRP advice apply to me?

Its even more for you than other people. You, like the rest of us short guys, are at an inherent disadvantage due to genetics.

It will always hold you back, but you can get around some of it like the rest of us have.

It's all about confidence and status man. This goes for all of us.

Women will shit-test you over your height all the time. You should expect them to attack your insecurities because that's what they do to control you. Don't pretend you're not short, but also don't let it be a weakness. If they try to emasculate you over something you have no control over, they are low value. Treat them as such.

Height isn't everything. Here's a post made by Mark Manson (author of Models If you haven't read it I suggest you do) that discusses the issue:

You've got a disadvantage--no doubt about it, but you can make up for that by having solid game and being successful in life. You just have to try harder than the other guy.

Also, I'd suggest getting shoe lifts that'll bump you up a couple inches.

if they just workout and groom

Actually, confidence and good social skills are more important than your physique. I once saw a short tubby guy convince two cute girls to join him for a menage-a-tois through pure charisma.

Height is an objective disadvantage. It means that the girls you'll be able to get won't be as hot as if you were exactly the same but taller. So if the 6'2" version of you gets 9s, the 5'9" version might get 8s, and the 5'4" version might get 7s. The numbers aren't necessarily accurate, it's just an example.

I'm 5'7". When gaming women taller than I am, my game needs to be much better than when gaming shorter women. That's a fact of life. But I'm not bothered by it at all. I'm not salty about it. There are plenty of women around. I'm having no problems having a decent amount of sex (I'm young and still improving parts of my life, and I expect I'll have easy access to lots of poon in 5 years). I have an abundance mentality. So yes, my options are not as numerous as someone with equal value to me but more height. But I still have a shit ton of options. Life is good.

Getting bummed out over your height is like having 10 million dollars and getting depressed when you lose 1 million. You're still rich as fuck.

Look around you. This here is a subreddit filled with men, just like you, with flaws. Those flaws brought us here. And we managed to get passed it.

Then look at the bigger picture. Everyone has these types of flaws. And most people are not here, learning, scheming and making the upper hand.

On average people are just as flawed as you, but somehow still manages to have hot ladies in their beds.
