it is often perceived that short women are not as discriminated or oppressed as short men. While I do admit that short men are treated poorly in society and are openly scrutinized by women because of their height. Short women face their own challengers. Short women problem is that people tend to not take short women seriously. Whenever a short woman asserts herself , she is often treated like a child having a temper tantrum. Short women are often ignored, dismissed. The one advantage that short women have is in dating men. And thats because of gender stereotypes that women are to be meek..weak..someone needing of protection. So men who want to feel like protectors seek out shorter women because they feel they need to be protected. Short women are not represented in the fashion industry or modelling industry. The standard of beauty still continues to be average to tall height.. symmetrical features and modest weight.

Man or woman... we all want to fit in

as long as u r on the wrong side of the within 1 standard deviation of your gender's average height in what ever country u live in, LL will improve ur life.

I'm short and i think average to tall girls are better looking. never had them.but hey, they look so sexy and structured.

Some girls have come on this site with average height seeking longer legs and that is just INSANE.

The reason i did LL is because i want more attention from girls. Im a human and just like everybody else i need attention from the opposite sex. Im not tall now, but im normal and thats good enough for me.

For girls however, if you are above 155cm then i think you really need to consider if the surgery is worth it. And thats mainly because of cost. As a short man, i can notice the benefit of getting taller because woman are extremely shallow when it comes to a mans height. But if you are a girl and get a little bit taller, then there is a chance you wont really notice any difference in life. You probably already have lots of attention from guys despite your height.

I know the feeling of wanting to get taller so i dont really blame you, just think through it carefully because there might be a chance you actually dont need it.

Quote from: Sara123 on December 05, 2018, 03:44:16 PMEarlier this year I had an argument with my ex housemate. He was very rude to me, told me I’m just a little thing and he could make me disappear if he wanted. To be fair he was just very angry. It was a very heated argument, which came about because of my intention to have this operation. I told him I would have to leave the apartment we shared and could not renew the lease early next year. He wanted to know why, when I told him that I was going abroad to have this done, he told me I have serious issues and I don’t need to lengthen my legs. We had various arguments because he then left me on my own to pay the rent alone. I told him I was going next year but he then said “well if you’re going next year I’m leaving now” and just left me to pay all the bills alone for months. People have no idea how much stress the intention to have this operation has caused me. My mum and I are now not talking. We had a fall out over this operation. She sent me horrid messages saying I need psychiatric help not an operation. On top of that she told a lot of her friends and even got them to send me messages to try to change my mind. She was apparently crying to her friends saying she doesn’t want to see her only daughter ruining her life forever. She also has a son, my brother but I’m her only daughter.

I then had people sending me messages saying they see nothing wrong wit me. To be fair I’ve also told too many people and this whole year has been crazy for me. I just want a normal life. Why is life so hard for me.

When my housemate was threatening me and telling me I’m just a little thing he could make disappear, I felt horrible. I’m just a little over 5 feet 2 so I’m not really tiny but he was over 6 feet. He never hurt me but his threats when he was angry made me feel horrid and worthless.

I’ve also had a number of men in the past patronising me. Things like “you’re a clever girl”. It just feels like they are expecting me to be stupid or something. I’ve been praised by men just for doing everyday stuff. I think a lot of this stems from the fact that I’m a small and sweet woman. I’m sure they don’t mean any harm but it does feel patronising. In a relationship it’s nice but not in the wider world.

Now if I had longer legs, I could put on nice clothes and a get a sassy attitude at work with man who decides to patronise me again at work!! That’s another bonus, put some men back in their place!!

It is very sad how short people are mistreated. Call is a solution. But it's not the answer to overcoming heightism. It's sad how we are made a shame of ourselves. I'm only doing call to escape heightism.

In my opinion the major contributor to prejudices likes lookism, heightism and beautyism ..is the media. Whehter it be in movies, music, videos... all we ever see are average to tall people. Superheroes are alwas extremely tall, handsome and musculuar. The leading characters for action movies are always tall people. And lets take a look at the modelling industry. I dont see any short models around. I find it so hypocritical when the media,,hollywood starts talking about diversity...or body acceptance but they never mention short height. As a short person I never paied attention to it. Until heightism started becoming a reality for me. We just blindly follow and watch whats in front of us. And dont realize that they are programming at an early age to be heightist. The message that comes across is to be successfulone has to be beautiful and smart..and have the total package. And people who are short.. unattractive do not deserve success, to be treated fairly and happiness. And everyone seems to be okay with it..even short people.

Use social media" Post information regarding height discriminations on facebook, youtube, instagram, tumblr, and other popular social media sites, bring up height awareness in chat rooms, like christian chat rooms, main chat rooms and secular chat rooms. Research 100 ways to advertise online to think of more ways on how to advertise in regards a social cause.

2.Use word of mouth. Tell friends and family about height discrimination, educated them. Tell professionals about height discrimination.

3.Organize yourself with like minded people. Find other like minded people who want to fight height prejudice and strategize on how to overcome this stigma. Have accountability partners.

4.Know your rights. Be educated on your legal rights. ANd learn about different methods to advocate legally through letter writing,, writing in forms of email, fax and registered mail. Keep all forms of written corresnpondence.

Hire a legal counsel. Hire a lawyer or a paralegal if you feel your human rights are violated.

Use differnt forms of legal writing if rights are being violated such as demand letter or cease and decease letter.

Offline ads: Put up flyers against height discrimination, in bullttin boards in libraries, coffee shops (ask first), Place flyers in peoples mailbox. Use billboard ads, radio ads, and magazine ads,

Hire a public relations firm to promote body diversity..and body acceptance ..place tv ads in local tv stations etc

Hire private investigator to gather evidence if you feel you are being discriminated.

Love yourself Know that your height does NOT define y

It doesn't fix the stigma of being short. It's just assimilating to the culture.
