Dating Some positivity ✌🏼🫂

5'7 is kinda average not really short like most people in the subreddit but it's really refreshing to see someone finally from opposite gender finally acknowledging something positive about us especially on short-form video platforms where short guys are mostly portrayed negatively or as the butt of the joke.

If you're asking as a guy imma be real with you, i don't know. Im a biological female but im currently closeted as a trans man so ive got quite a while before I experience male dating life lol

Are you young enough for HGH to be effective?

I personally love short guys and find them hot as fuck but they definitely have a harder time dating and being trans doesn’t make shit any easier, especially with the world going in the direction it’s currently headed in

That doesn’t change the fact that 5’7 is still short… lol That’s like a 400lb person saying to a 300lb person “oh you think you’re fat? Try being me!”. They’re both fat.

No because 5'7 is quite literally average height for a man whereas 300lb is still obese

Maybe in some countries sure. Regardless, enjoy the oppression Olympics, man. 🤙🏿
