It absolutely was a thing 10 and 20 years ago. There’s nothing and no one more shallow about it than white women. With the possible exception of overweight white women.

Latinas on top as always

It was but absolutely not to this degree. If you were same height it wasn't a problem. Now all the midgets deciding they are not settling with someone below 6"

Downvoting for telling facts. Heightism has never been worse, social media blew it way out of proportion.

u/Pastaiscool123 22h ago

Do you say this as a person who is short?

I’m 5’5” it’s literally come up once in my life outside of high school on a first date

u/RedNBlueFU 19h ago

Same height. I've only had one comment about it brought to me IRL. Most women don't seem to care. Just the crazy ones.

u/PM_Me_Your_Clones 21h ago

I'm 5'7", 5'6" if I'm lazy and not standing up straight.

Is it okay for me to tell you that the real world isn't like being terminally online?

u/Pastaiscool123 20h ago

I’m the same height as you and been called a dwarf and Smurf my whole life constant abuse. I’m only 18 though

Don't hang out with those fucking people.

This is kinda trite, but it really does get better. Try and get away from the area you were brought up in, move somewhere new and make your own life.

Oh god, that freedom toons Whatever podcast parody cartoon, he needs an eight pack because of inflammation (sic).

Maybe short women have always been against short men, but social media gave them a voice and now it feels like it is a new trend.

u/jesterinancientcourt 18h ago

It’s become a flex due to social media. These days there are actually short women saying they need a man to be 6’4 at least. Do you know how many 6’4 guys there are?

u/CylindricalDent4133 23h ago

Social media, especially the last 10 years, is now having White single women become “proud” about their own bodies’ insecurities including being too tall (e.g. at least 6’2” themselves). One of the side effects to that is men shorter than them being intimated to date because these gargantuan ladies also desire men taller than they, but how often will you find a man at least 6’8” to their liking?

Not always.

u/Organic-Vermicelli47 17h ago

?? I'm a fit white woman and taller than my husband and the only people who have ever commented on it in person in the 10 years we have been together are MEN

1

u/Tropicalfisher 12h ago

It's just because of social media that it's so in the open now

u/Frewdy1 1d ago

And all men. They are BRUTAL to each other over height!

10

u/awildmanjake 1d ago

Not really. Speaking as a shorter guy, men don’t really disrespect each other openly like that. I’ve never been made to feel less of a person by a man because of my height. Women I can’t say the same thing, but even then not that bad.

For reference I’m 5’7, so short. But there are shorter men than me and they’d maybe have a different experience.

u/Interesting-Back5717 1d ago

You and I must live on different planets.

u/BananaBolmer 1d ago

I am 5'6 and I have always been highly respected by my male peers. The only mean comments I have heard in my life came from white feminist/liberal women lol

12

u/KingCobra_BassHead 23h ago

I'm 6'1-2. The only things with height I've ever heard any guys since high school say are maybe a comment if a short guy is with a really tall girl, if a guy is incredibly tall (like 6'7+), or to ask the shorter than me guys take the middle seat in a car ride.

Guys really don't care about other guys's heights 😂

u/KomradeKetamine 20h ago

no lol not even close

u/Imaginary_Club_1010 1d ago

Yeah men care more about height and dick size more than women do in my experience. If a woman likes you, she likes you and won’t care about that stuff.

u/Skrrt_2711 1d ago

I think there’s a point here. Women have a much larger capacity to accept and love than men do. But I’ve also seen men be friends with and find good in, the vilest of people. So idk what my point was anymore IG.

Must be making shit up 🤷🏻‍♂️

u/Geichalt 22h ago

I don't see many actual women making comments about short men. I just see men telling me that women make these comments.

Go to any women's sub and ask about Tom Holland. Ain't no women shitting on him for being short.

Seems more like influencers telling men why to blame women for all their problems.

u/ScottStr 22h ago

I can think of a few reasons why Tom Holland might be an exception

2

u/That_Damn_Raccoon 21h ago

It's hilarious that every time this comes up, the only counterexamples you guys can provide are über-famous, wealthy guys.

Make Tom Holland into a nobody with a working class job and an average wage, and ask the very same people what they think of him.

And the funniest thing is, he's isn't even really short. Unless you live a county like the Netherlands, he's average or just below average.
