True, as long as women don't start growing themselves with this imaginary cheap and painless procedure. If women however decide that they want to look like runway models, tall men might want to scale up proportionately (there's always going to be a few that want to be the tallest in a group). At the current state, women are in a good place when it comes to short stature, much better than men for sure. Women have a convenient safe haven of a word called "petite" while men regrettably don't. Being petite is celebrated, found this article a few months ago and found it interesting.
That being said, you'd be surprised at how many tall guys get uncomfortable when they meet someone who is a little taller! Makes sense considering it's a rare sight, it's a rare emotional reaction. It seems a little crazy but I've heard of tall guys saying they'd like to be a little taller if they have a taller friend; maybe it's because it's better to be tallest than almost tallest. As my dad likes to say, if you're not in first place, you're first loser. Somewhat related, generally interesting study about managing expectations.
Some who are extremely tall do feel camaraderie instead of discomfort though, or they think: do I look that huge to everyone else?
