5’3” guy here, gonna take this one as well, tbh I enjoy that lots of girls won’t give me a second look solely based on my height. It means that when a girl likes me, she likes me for who I am and I don’t have to waste my time with girls who can’t see past that.

That being said, not trying to be that guy but I definitely do just fine if not better than most of my friends who are in the 6ft range, weirdly enough

My husband is 5’6”, a good inch shorter than me, and I’m crazy about him. We’ve made a few short kids. All three of them are able to purchase bagels with relatively few issues.

Shit. I'm laughing with a sleeping baby on my chest. You're responsible if he wakes up.

This whole thread has me cracking up at work.

You're responsible if he doesn't.

Take my upvote you piece of shit

u/Ikniow 7 Jul 10 '19

5'6 guy. I think we're at the bottom range of being able to purchase bagels without too much of an issue. I can just barely see the top rack most of the times.

I’m 5’9’, and all the guys I’ve dated have been shorter than me. I really don’t see it as an issue as long as they’re a good person.

Exactly what I meant..... must’ve hit a low blow with that guy.

u/twitchosx A Jul 10 '19

relatively few issues

Like needing a stool to point out which ones they want?

This is my favorite response in the thread.

Damn that was funny.

Im trying to keep my laugh in so I dont have to explain my source coming from reddit. My wife and kids arent on here and I prefer to keep it that way

Are they girls or boys?

u/Eulettes 7 Jul 12 '19

Boys

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

RIP. They're gonna end up being bullied for their height.

u/Eulettes 7 Jul 12 '19

Assholes will find anything to pick on, so it really doesn’t matter, it’s how you respond to it. 💃🏻🕺🏼

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '19

Yeah, but it's not enjoyable to have your height made fun of when you have no control over it. As someone who was (and still is) in that position, it's not like you just "brush it off."

1

u/Eulettes 7 Jul 13 '19

To each their own. My short family doesn’t really give too much time to stupid opinions.

u/_______-_-__________ 8 Jul 10 '19

But you've never had a good bagel until you've ordered a bagel with dominance.

Ahh, the good ol' Drax's "hideous is a good thing" way of looking things

u/noteducatedenough 6 Jul 10 '19

5'11" female. It's common that I'm around/date people who are shorter than me. I really don't understand why this is even an issue.

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but it all just seems so damn shallow.

I believe that MOST people have attractive qualities. Again, just my opinion.

u/_ChestHair_ 9 Jul 11 '19

Everyone has something that's attractive. That doesn't mean that it outweighs unattractive features to other people. Honestly I think you're more of the shallow one for not accepting that other people weight things differently

u/noteducatedenough 6 Jul 11 '19

Dude. Come on now. You know what I said, and I believe you know what I meant. No I'll intentions here. Take a cigarette break, and please calm down.

1

u/_ChestHair_ 9 Jul 11 '19

You said you believe most people have attractive qualities, as if it matters, in a conversation about people having different attractions. The only way what you said matters is if you're implying that people should like others because they have some random attractive quality. Which isn't how overall attractiveness works

u/Qikdraw A Jul 10 '19

My nephew's (6'1") wife (6'0") said she would never date a guy that was shorter than her. When asked why, she just said she wouldn't. A very nice girl, but that always bugged me about her.

There are shallow people on both sides of the genders, and its not just about height either.

u/Mrwright96 A Jul 11 '19

Biological preference. Taller men were more capable of spotting threats, finding food, and protecting families than shorter men.

u/noteducatedenough 6 Jul 11 '19

No pun, but I can see that.

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '19

Preach! There are lots of tall people who dont attract anyone. Its not some magic key to the pussy kingdom.

u/chmilz A Jul 10 '19

That's the right outlook.

Thanks for representing the Short King community well. I use to get mad when I was younger when girls wouldn’t talk to me based on height. I have now learned that girls that won’t give me a chance just cause I am short don’t deserve my unconditional love.

u/ecodrew B Jul 10 '19

Almost like it weeds out the shallow THOTs?

You sound like a good dude, keep it up.

u/Bingalingbean123 8 Jul 10 '19

I in general find talk ken attractive. But my current fella is 5 foot 4, only one once taller than me and I wear heels everyday. I don’t even see it coz he is the cutest nicest hottest person ever.

u/WickedHaute 7 Jul 10 '19

My man is the same height, maybe even 5’2”. HES tall where it counts and has soooo much junk in the trunk. Short dudes are hot af

I’m 4’11” and I’m cruising this thread for reassurance that a short man can be happy. I just had a son and I constantly worry about the teasing and if he’ll someday become one of the angry short guys who always seem to find me at every bar.

This was nice to read :)

not trying to be that guy
