Ya, I'm one of the short guys out there.

Sometimes I wonder if that stastic seems way off because it's taking into account a bunch of hispanics or something (they're typically a lot shorter than white people), and, especially in my area, I don't exactly consider them "competition". It's quite rare that I run into a white guy who's as short as me, and it's always a little disconcerting that whenever I see any guy who's the least bit shorter than me, I think to myself, "damn, that guy looks short".

Also, I have noticed that a lot of attractive girls are at least as tall as me. I sort of have specific/picky tastes when it comes to looks, but I sometimes it seems I walk around for a day and the vast majority of girls I see who I find really attractive are an inch or so taller than me. I don't get why that is, but it just is. And no my attraction to them has nothing to do with their height.....it's all 1) how cute their face is and 2) if they're not chubby.

I acknowledge and accept my GENETIC FLAWS and realize I cannot do a f*ckin thing about them, so I move on to something else that I can actually improve about myself. I have a lot more to complain about when it comes to height than you do. Do you see me crying about it here on this forum though?

I mean I'm short, right? So wtf am I supposed to do now? F*ckin sit and worry about my height all the damn time and ask why the almighty decided to smite me with these vertically challenged genes?

If I took the pathetic mentality you little b!tches are showing me here and applied it to myself, I probably would think my chances of getting an HB were next to nothing since I'd be so concerned about how f*ckin short I am. F*ck it...maybe I should just swear women off altogether, buy a couple UZIs and go out on a killing spree where I shoot up every 6 foot tall mother f*cker I come across, just to get back at them for their genetic advantage. At least this way I can just look forward to some constant anal attention on a regular basis in prison, and I won't have to worry about my height preventing me from getting some action.

Enough f*ckin rambling.

The point of my comments are that I'm a serious case of a short male at 5'5. You guys call yourselves short cause you're missing 3 or 4 inches, but you still have enough stature to be recognized as a grown up adult male. People at my level, on the other hand, are sometimes disrespected and looked down upon as boys instead of men. You think your sh!t is so bad but you fail to appreciate how much worse it could be for you. That is what your core problem is. Instead of relishing the fact that you're not as short people like myself, you'd rather focus on the negative bullsh!t all the time cause you're nothing more than a bunch of f*ckin chumps, period.

just because you're Gary Coleman short doesn't mean some guys taller than you aren't short as well. They're just.....not as short.

Let me understand this cause, I don't know maybe it's me, I'm a little f*cked up maybe, but I'm funny how? I mean, funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh... I'm here to f*ckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny....funny how? How am I funny?

No, no, I don't know... you said it. You said I'm funny. How the f*ck am I funny? WHAT THE F*CK is so funny about me? Tell me.

WOH Can some say Napoleon Complex lol

Yeah, I don't get all these guys who are 5'7-5'9 complaining about being short, almost unbelievable. Being 5'6 myself, there is no shortage of women who will still be attracted to you.

 

[Phat]

Just be happy that u are 5'7 - 5 '8.. Dam your lucky if u even got that tall.. I know guys who are wayy shorter then that and still have girlfriends.

I wouldn't consider being below average as "lucky". You're lucky if you're above average. 6'2 guys are lucky. 5'6 guys are unlucky.

 

[josekortez]

Being short shouldn't be your excuse. I'm 5'5", and I've "been" with a chick that was 5'10" using the DJ techniques I learned on this site. One of the chicks I met last night was 5'8", and I grabbed her by the hand and took her out to dance on the floor in a crowded bar that wasn't a dance club.

Confidence is everything...

 

[DJ4Real]

Working out helps....but working out is only an "extra"....it's your attitude that counts....you and your attitude is what shows whether or not you are confident and dominant....

Like many have said....height isn't the issue....Think about it.

Good Luck

 

[Malachi]

Nothing wrong with being skinny/short aslong as you have confidence...

I don't know what the fuck happened....my dad is 6'-6'1. That's just one set of genes I wish I didn't get from my mom. At least I'm good looking and in shape.

same here... i'm 5'9 and 90% of guys my age are taller than me... now that i'm weightlifting and getting wider, i look even shorter... and my younger brothers are all above 6'0

 

[Nighthawk]

If you're short, confuse women about your true height by jumping a lot.

What also sucks is the bigger you get from weightlifting, the bigger the clothes you have to get and when you're forced to go from small to medium or medium to large, everything's all of a sudden too long. I have a bitch of a time finding shirts at a lot of stores that fit me well and aren't too long, which makes me look even shorter. Hell, I've always had that problem (particularly dress shirts....it's almost impossible to find any that don't look too long on me).

 

[mroriginal]

Hey guys look into rolfing its been claimed to add atmost 1.5 inches on your spine because they completely fix your posture.

Actually gives you height? I'm dubious, to say the least.

Regarldess, unless it adds inches to my legs and not my torso, I'm not interested. My legs are already short enough.

yeah at a whopping 155 you look shorter

being muscular doesn't make you look short, it makes you look MUSCULAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cheer:

 

[TubularBells28]

Again, for inspiration look at all the famous people and leaders who were short.

And lift, lift lift. Do it so shirts fit tighter and therefore look awesome.

 

[thebsharp]

Seriously, how the hell is 5'7 or 5'8 short? talk about insecure. Am 5'8 and am taller then 80% of the girls, except ones that wear those crazy heals. Short is when you're 5"6 and down. Stop with the rediculous threads.

once again, same here scrumtulescence... shirts that are not too long for my torso, usually are extremely tight on my arms... i think it's also my torso's shortness that makes me look shorter than 5'9... sometimes i see guys that are 5'9 and i think they are average height... then, i see they are just as tall as me, but have a long torso. i'll try that rofling stuff some guy posted up in here

bullsh1t... i constantly hear people laughing about short muscular people... not to their face, because they are intimidated, but they make lots of fun of them

 

[comote]

There are many women who will disqualify a guy for being short, but there are also girls who will disqualify a guy for being too tall.

I've heard plenty of women say this, not just freakishly tall but I have had some of my women friends tell me they were looking for someone under 6ft. I'm 5'8" btw.

One women (also 5'8", hmmm) told me once
"I like having sex with men who are around my height because it's easier to get into alot of the different positions"

Anyways we can sit here and complain about it all day or we can work on the parts of our game we actually have control over.
