Presence...

[ScrewIt]

i think that short ppl are just bitter about everything and hate themselves that they were born short and arent "normal"
these short ones are angry inside at ppl who outcompete them in height porbably cause they feel inferior to them and society has made them feel that way.

i have a friend about 5'7"/5'8" he's cool but sometimes he's a little weird and strange. but very very strange how his younger bro is taller than him. i knew another friend which was around that height which his younger bro was also taller than him. probably all in genetics...

short ppl are just really packed in, like they aint skinny or fat, but they got just enough meat over their bodies.

P!ssing contests!

True, but then most people are short.

What you are saying is that when they (short ppl) see a tall person,
they try to intimidate them because they feel inferior to them.
I would agree with this.
Everytime another man walks past me, they are always trying to stand up as straight as possible.
Sometimes they make a joke of my height,
or even threaten me, as Dirtheart pointed out from his example.

But we tall guys compete with each other as well,
so there isn't much of a case here aside from the fact that tall guys are a rarity.

This is also true of men who dress well. If you wear a suit,
you will get ALOT of female attention.
But you will also get alot of male hostility as well.
It isn't always the case, but most times it is.

It all comes down to simple human nature.

Anyways, most people just ask me if I'm an actor or something like that.
In which case my reply is always the same,
"something like that."

It does not really bother me anymore.
I'm sort of flattered by it, actually.

I'm 6'2" works fine for me... I don't get intimidated by taller guys either because most people if they are taller than me are "freakishly" tall or look strange or whatever besides I'm perfectly comfortable with my height.

Presence isn't about height at all, it's all about aura! When you walk into a room, how are you doing it? Confident, strong, chest forward, arrogant/****y? Or scared, bad posture/bodylanguage, flakey? It's all about that energy and mental state you possess!

i dont know, but just cuz i dress semi casual or "normal" for ppl my age should dress + groom well, my AFC friends will try to make fun of it. whether i dress nice for myself or for the girls is my own business. tell you the truth they dress pretty badly, but not as bad as a bum. they both wear caps so do nothing with their hair.

what you decide to wear is based on your personality and create your image. i dont giv a fuk what a few AFC's might crack about me, theyre just jealous.

you know nowadays, ppl respect a person who can at least groom & dress well. if u prsent and dress yourself as close to a bum as possible, you wont be respected as you would if u dressed semi-casual.
