1. There is no correlation between height and intelligence. Short people can be as smart if not more smarter than tall people. And vice versa.

2. Height has nothing to do with talent.

3. Height has no influence on character. Tall and short people can be criminals.

4. Height has nothing to do with health. However it is said that short people can live longer.

5. Height has nothing to do with athletic abilities. Michael Phelps over six feet tall is a decorated Olympian. Simone Biles 4 feet8 also a decorative Olympian.

6. Height has nothing to do with health . Anyone can get sick.

7. When it comes to beauty, Beauty is subjective. Tall height is considered beautiful but not everyone who is tall is attractive. And there has been some short people who were attractive like Ariana Grande.

Just because someone is tall it doesn't mean they are perfect or flawless. They could have another weakness that is invisible. And just because someone is short,, if being short is considered a flaw it doesn't mean that person doesn't have other great strengths.

uman beings have both strengths and weaknesses. We all do. We are not perfect. We know our weaknesses but we hide them out of fear of rejection.

The amount of logical fallacies for the sake of self-comforting is astonishing. Keep going, and who knows, it might be that one day your heightlessness becomes an invaluable part of your identity.

Everything I stated is true. The only purpose that tall height serves is its considered attractive. But as far as character, talent, health, intelligence, athleticism height has nothing to do with that.

Its just human beings in general are shallow. And care more about appearance than anything else.

Quote from: wants2growtaller on August 14, 2021, 10:06:42 AMEverything I said is true. The only time height might matters is in dating. But everything else height isnt needed. Its just bullies. Bullies like to pick on people. Society in my opinion is the biggest bully.

Well, if you said it's true, than it is of course the truth.

However, like it or not, you behave like a bigot yourself with those speeches. I'm sorry, but the passion with which you speak makes them neither persuasive nor true (I hate this word already).

Height itself might not matter, - it's debatable, but let's suppose so. However, absense of it absolutely diminishes the quality of life in every way.

It is true what I stated. But no way does it stop the prejudices against short people. Society is shallow, arrogant, and not very nice. That is the reality..But simply to say someone is inferior just on the premise ofheight is completely inaccurate.

I am not a bigot. I dont treat people badly just because of their appearance or things that do not matter. I treat people the way they treat me, or how I would like to be treated. It is sad that society believes in these false concepts such as inferior or superior people.

The reality is. There isnt anyone on this earth who is inferior nor superior. Its a delusion in their mind to feel better about themselves by putting others down because of their insecurity. Everyone on this earth is imperfect. No matter how much we try, or think we are perfect or strive to be perfect it will NEVER happen.

Everyone on this earth has strengths and weaknesses. Everyone on this earth has something to offer. And everyone on this earth can learn from someone else. This is a true fact. If more people had those type of thinking, society wouldnt have these ridiiculous prejudices such as heightism, or racism or any other isms.

We were never meant to be perfect. Because we arent. Why is it so hard for humanity to accept that?

What a bad society, huh? Of course, we should fight it, we should protest against prejudices, huh, ok. Gotcha.

But why all those struggles for the sake of great justice if you can simply. Change. Yourself. Surgically?

I will follow your points, to demonstrate what greater height can do.

2) You might be able to better represent your talent, be more appealing to an audience, and not be ashamed of yourself.

3) It might have influence on your character. There is no need to reach extremes, - generally, a short person suffering from BDD will be happier overall, and this can significantly influence their character.

4), 6) You're wrong. Let's play Darwinian, - greater height up till certain extent associates with better health and is overall more appealing. It's also speculative at best that short people live longer. Can't comment on sicknesses, since it's just too broad and vague topic to discuss.

5) Height has SOMEthing to do with athletic abilities. Simone Biles can't be a swimmer like Phelps even if she wishes very, very hard. Also, Phelps couldn't be, you know, Phelps, had he not his stature and proportions. (Vice versa, of course, Phelps can never be someone like Biles).

Different sports require different heights, and that's true. However, what can you say to a boy like me who couldn't compete with other boys in swimming after puberty anymore, I don't know. Advice to change sports, huh?)

7) Beauty is subjective, but not that subjective. Again, we play Darwinian here. Greater height up till certain extent associates with better health and is overall more appealing. Yes, you said that there are handsome short people and there are ugly tall people. But be they taller, short ones would be even prettier, and be they shorter, tall ones would be uglier. Sad, but true.

I missed the first 1) obviously, since mechanical change of height can't increase your intelligence, which is obvious. However, again, taller people are more likely to be smarter than their short buddies, since, again, it's all about genes and environment (the latter we consider to be equivalent for everyone, for the sake of argument). Sorry.

In closing, greater height provides you more opportunities. But of course, we should fight with prejudices instead.

It's not about being perfect. For some people, perhaps. But overall, it's not about perfection. It's about improving the quality of your life.

I - and assume everyone sane on this very website - don't need abc truths. Neither do we need a senseless struggle. All we need is the improvement of our lives.
