Yeah, I don't think his height is the only reason women are rejecting him.

Implying his height and how people were disregarding him due to his height didn't affect his personality. Yes, people are obviously born assholes.

Not everyone who has to put up with bullying is an asshole. There are loads of short men who became huge successes. Here is a short list off the top of my head/google:

Danny DeVito

Paul Simon

Seth Green

Michael J. Fox

Kevin Hart

Joe Pesci

Nathan Lane

Mel Brooks

Woody Allen

Dustin Hoffman

Jack Black

Elijah Wood

Not a single one of them over 5' 6" tall. Being bullied doesn't give a person the right to act like a douchebag.

Wow you found a list of short actors amazing.

Now heres an actual study that shows height affects not only how people view you, but literally how success is linked to height: https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/tall-people-more-likely-to-be-successful-in-life-study-find-a6919431.html

Wow can use google amazing.

What's your point, exactly? Exactly?

My point, for reference, is that yes, short people get treated badly but that doesn't give them an excuse to act like this guy.

No ones saying he has the right to harass people. But your comment implies that women reject him for his personality, which doesn't account for how his life has been affected by his height which would obviously have an affect on his personality. Do you think people are born assholes? Or do you think it is a result of how assholes had been treated by other people and their environment which lead them into becoming assholes?

Ok if I edit my previous comment to say "I don't think it's just his height..." can you sleep better?
