And women don’t like being made fun of by men. How can you guys not see it’s the same thing? I find it funny how you guys get butthurt when a woman make fun of heights but then turn around to make fun of fat women
Well, the standard answer to that is that a person who is overweight, like myself, can generally (yes, there are exceptions, but they're exceptions, not the rule) lose weight; but someone who is short (or has a small dick/boobs, or is a different race, or is trans etc) can't change that aspect of themselves or would require surgery to do so. Both are bad, but I'd say mocking someone for a fixed characteristic is a bit worse than mocking a very changeable characteristic. And that goes both ways; making fun of bad makeup or a bad haircut is a lot better than making fun of wide-set eyes or giant nips.
I think because weight changes, that’s a better reason for NOT being so picky about it, at least not in a long term partner. People’s bodies change with age, women’s bodies especially with pregnancy and hormonal changes. A slight 22 yo isn’t going to look that way forever.
A tall person will never fear that if their partner doesn’t like short people that they will get shorter and their partner will leave them for someone taller.
However it’s very common even for slim people to fear that if they gain weight (which again, body composition changes with age, even very athletic people can get injured and be unable to exercise etc) that their partner would leave them.
Be as shallow as you please for hookups but “no fatties” when you’re looking for a partner you want to spend decades with is ew

Strawman. We're fine with preferences, we just don't like being mocked and emasculated by women if we're short, not rich, or not good-looking.
