Is height really as important as we think?

Quote from: ilovescience on January 29, 2022, 09:21:54 PMI know what you mean. But it definitely hurts to people who are short but very skilled. They probably don't get paid equally even they contribute a lot in their works.
Idk where this story of "less money" if you are short come from since the most powerful mens in the world are under 5'9 I believe it's just a psychosis/excuse for short men to justify their dysphoria instead of saying simply they are insecure about height and how they are treated by people under a social aspect .

It was from a guy who I talked to long time ago, he was a student at the time.

Well it depends:

I think for life in general it's more important to be halfway normal.
Let me explain it:

- Being very short alone as a male will have influence in many areas of life. It's sad but it is what it is
- Being "halfway normal" will have no influence of any area of life
- Being tall alone probably won't affect life, but it can be a bonus. If you're tall and ugly you're tall and ugly, if you're tall and boring you're tall and boring, if you're tall with a weak personality you're tall with a weak personality

A guy who grows "magicaly" over night from 165cm to 175cm will benefit waqy more than a guy who grows from 175cm to 185cm

Yeah, I would mostly agree with this. Being really tall can get you height fetishists, though.

I've always noticed very tall men are the most sought after by very short women trying to compensate for their own short genetics and very tall women who want to feel feminine.

How tall is 'very tall'? I never saw any guy over 190cm+ will be sought after the most by very short women(as opposed to 'very tall men' let's just say they are around 140cm) and vice versa, instead I always see very short women are seeking for guys over 160-170cm but yeah some tall men over 180cm are indeed also into very short women but what I am talking about is just happening in China, for other countries I just dunno.
But if you wanan let me choose 230cm or under 165cm I will not hesitate to choose the former.

Second this. Once you are extremely short your life is just over and if LL can't get you up to the average even then depression and anxiety disorder are very of possibilities in addition to being alone for a lifetime.

If you’re a well-rounded man whose biggest shortcoming is your height, then it’s going to be really important to you personally. If you are lacking in other areas then height is probably not your biggest worry, and if it is you should reevaluate your priorities.
