| It doesn't matter how great the guy is, if he's short, it's going to be an uphill battle for him to find a girlfriend. All that PUA stuff does not work such as treating various girls with indifference, adopting a bad boy persona, and etc. When you're a pretty short guy, you aren't not even on the radar to most of the girls as they are not even going think about dating you. You're not even a candidate. (Unless you're a rich mofo) It's practically the equivalent of how most of these guys would not consider an obese girl dateable even if she's totally got it together in other aspects of her life. It's the same with a short guy. He could be kind, charismatic, great career, lots of friends, exciting life but he'll lose out to the tall six foot guy who can barely hold a job, flirts with other girls even though he's in a serious relationship and all the more painful, the girls will actually fawn and get heartbroken over the tall dude but totally ignore the short guy who besides his short stature actually has all the qualities she is looking for. I'm not blaming this on women. It's a genetic impulse due to our evolutionary history. Girls want guys who tower over them because they don't want short offspring and also, a taller guy had the advantage in hunting. So you might think, ok if a guy is short, then all he needs to do is find a short girl. Say a girl is around 5 feet tall, you would think she'd be fine with a shorter guy but nope.jpg, why date a shorter guy when you could get an even taller one? Even if he totally towers over you to the point where it's awkward to kiss him. (plus the fact that two short parents=short kids) So any short guy who has the hope that he can find a short girl doesn't even have that. She can easily find a much taller guy and most tall guys don't mind dating a much shorter girl. Well, that's pretty much what I think. What do you guys think of this statement? Myth or nah? |

| I've got plenty of short friends in relationships. This just seems like one of those dumb myths to make you feel better about the fact that you're undateable for reasons entirely under your control. |
 |
| Nahh, they're not quite there. I agree that they're not as high up on the totem pole as a guy of average or taller height, sure, but undateable? That's a bit much. |

| 6 feet. Short people have no reason to live. |

| All in your head. All it takes is complete confidence in yourself. Not douchebag cocky confidence, but confidence to let them know/see that you aren't intimidated by anyone or any situation that can occur, even if it's being turned down or looked down on. I'm 5'4 and a half. |

Dubowner said: Tsuyuu said: are you asian? Yup. imo it's not that bad when you're asian, it just means you're short... but if you were 5'4 and caucasian/black in your early twenties, then people might consider you to be really short. |
| I'm Asian, and I'm 5'8 which I think is a bit short, but I'm taller than a lot of girls I meet. Of course, I'd like it so that I'm several inches taller than like 2 or 3. When I went to Asia, most of the girls there are very short, and I saw very few people who were fat. I walked through a mall in thailand, and I was taller than 70% of the people there. |

ibear said: Tsuyuu said: So because he's asian, he's not short, just asian..........what?!?!?!?yeah but remember the old fashioned stereotype that still lingers around- "idea that asians are generally short" What i'm trying to get across is that people tend to dwell less on an asian who is short... a short white guy or black guy will probably be given more criticism in society... because generally it's less common. |
| I bet dom girls like a short guy for reasons. |
mayukachan said: at least these asians are making 100k per year with their doctor and lawyer jobs Yeah exactly! Plus, it's more difficult to tell their height when they're sitting in a brand new BMW they're driving, right? |
AmericanDream said: I was speaking in Canadian standards, but okay.Tsuyuu said: Yeah exactly! Plus, it's more difficult to tell their height when they're sitting in a brand new BMW they're driving, right? Doctors and lawyers typically earn 3 times that amount. 100k is like typical engineer. |

hentai_proxy said: There is actually some truth to this post. If you are a short European immigrant in the US, it is time to look for other short European immigrants; because the American girls are all 'Oh lookie there, you are so cute! Where is your mom and dad?', and the only way they'd let you inside their bedroom is by mistaking you for a teddy bear. "Nordic sperm donors tend to be tall and highly educated and have altruistic motives for their donations, partly due to the relatively low monetary compensation in Nordic countries. More than 50 countries worldwide are importers of Danish sperm." Of course there is some truth to it. Why else would all those Asian/South-American countries and Canada be buying all that Nordic sperm? They obviously want all that tallness for themselves. |

Anyway to each his own I could care less what most people think about love. |
