Leading feminist website: "We know men face assault and rape at the hands of other men." What about the woman who rape, huh? You know where this is going.

Quartz At Work tries to explain why there are more women than men in medical school with every reason imaginable except the obvious, namely blatant legalized discrimination against men through affirmative action.

The kind of love nice guys feel is one of the many tools women have to weed out losers.

In a surprising example of lucidity, feminist Q&A sub actually admits men can be oppressed. Golf clap.

This just isnt true. Only if you are into gaming women at clubs and bars will this hinder you

[–]ToSeeAndToHear1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's not doing you any favors, but it could be worse.

Get over it and don't use it as an excuse.

What else are you going to do, wait to die and be reincarnated tall?

[–]PoisonBlaque1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

For?

[–]Ardubinston -2 points-1 points0 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

To go out and meet women without it being too hard.

[–]Middleageredder 2 points3 points4 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

"Too hard"? What defines that?

Let me guess, you don't want to do much of anything, and are preparing your height as your excuse for failure.

[–]Louisie_steezy-1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I myself am 5,8. Honestly. Anything over 5,6 only looks short if your chubby or fat, or if you stand with someone that is like 6,2. But 5,8-5,11 are actually great heights. Obviously its not the best. But not bad at all. Just keep your body right.

[–]Kwantuum1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Dude that's a HUUUGE dick size :o

It's as Rollo once said. Once you are aware of the realities of hypergamy, act as if you are above it.

[–]PoisonBlaque0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Only if you're self conscious about it. My partner is 5'9.

[–]kindaOKbut0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Only if you let it bother you. I'm 5'7" and nobody ever says anything about it. If they do (usually a shit test) I usually agree and amplify.

– “I don’t date short guys” – Translation: You look like a beta because you’re not physically imposing. Of course only guys who aren’t considered tall by the cultural standard of the country they are in are subject to this shit test. The correct response is to agree and amplify: “Yeah I’m a fucking dwarf even in my heels.” There is nothing worse than a short guy who is all messed up over his lack of height and gets insecure at the first mention of it. Women will shit test you on this if you are short (or even average) height. You have to seem like you don’t give a shit about the fact you’re not considered tall. If you get upset, she’ll think you’re weak because your jimmies were so easily rustled. Be unreactive, no fucks should get given, you can’t change your height so you have to learn to accept it.

[–]Scholarofsomesins-2 points-1 points0 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Damn, right bro!

It's about the self-confidence. You can be high as a tower or dress yourself like a rich boy but if you aren't confident with this you are just beta... .

[–]PoisonBlaque-1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Sooooo many other things matter other than height. Self confidence is a turn on, don't forget it.

[–]trpthroway123-1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Peter Dinklage gets laid. You can too.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Never going to have any success if you don't try.

[–]Ardubinston 3 points4 points5 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Peter Dinklage is an actor who has status. I'm an autistic loser that gets crapped on. Big difference.

[–]trpthroway1231 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

If you're an autistic loser that gets crapped on, your height isn't the problem...

[–]ErikTheRedPill 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That attitude bring you infinitely more failure than your height.
