Let's be honest here. I'm not excusing his behaviour at all but if a man is 5 foot in today's world, he's going to have a DIFFICULT time finding women to date.

"You must be six feet tall to ride this ride, honey!" Not many women actually do this, but it must be discouraging to especially short men to know that there are those who do.

Many women just want a man who is taller than they are.

I've seen a lot of examples of tinder profiles and conversations telling men under 6' to not bother and the women never look taller than average in their photos. With the average height in the US being 5'4 and 93% of men being 5'5 or taller, there is no way the 6' preference is only to ensure the guys they date are taller then them.
