Addressing heightism in modern society

Let's begin with a few facts:

Politics. In all but three American presidential elections in the 20th century, the taller man has won.

Business. More than half the chief executives of America's Fortune 500 companies stood six feet tall or more. As a class, these wekepei were a good 2.5 inches taller than average; only 3% were peritsi, 5'7" or less. Other surveys suggest that about 90% of chief executives are of above-average height.

Professional status. One study found that people in high-ranking jobs were about two inches taller than those down below, a pattern that held even when comparing men of like educational and socioeconomic status.

Jobs. Fully 72% of the time, the taller man is "hired". And when they are hired, they tend also to earn rather more.

Money. Short teenaged boys made less money when they became young adults (aged 23) than their taller peers--even after other attributes, such as scores on ability tests or parents' social status, were factored out.

Sex. When 100 women were asked to evaluate photographs of men whom they believed to be either tall, average or short, all of them found the tall and medium specimens "significantly more attractive" than the short ones. In another study, only two of 79 women said they would go on a date with a man shorter than themselves (the rest, on average, wanted to date a man at least 1.7 inches taller).

Clearly, there's a social problem that needs to be addressed and I'd like to hear the opinion of lanklets and women. Why is it that we allow manlets to harm the economy and women's emotional health by still giving them hopes of making a living and developing relationships? Discuss.

Why? Illusion of being able to make it. Modern Wagecuck life is inferior to slavery but some butthurt liberals are against that.

>Discriminating on the basis of ANY mere physical characteristic, for ANY reason whatsoever
>Pretending to be 'civilized' and 'intelligent'
If we did this, then the sad irony would be YOU would most likely find yourself the target of discrimination for some physical characteristic of yours that you have NO control over, too.
Enjoy your slippery slope, OP.

Now stop spouting tired-out old memes.

i think the socioeconomic status isn't affected that much by height, at least in my country

however it might apply to america for a simple reason, whites of germanic heritage are probably the tallest racial group there and we can guess they're genetically gifted more than other races and probably come from decent households

This is now a Manlet Hate Thread

Equal opportunity doesn't mean equal outcomes. Short men have all the opportunities to thrive that tall men do, they just drew the short straw on their character creation. You're playing on hard mode, accept that and work harder.

no such thing as heightism

kill yourself OP

i'm just 5'9 and i literally couldn't care less about all the height memes that gets thrown around here

That feel when next to 7'2" based Olivier Richters

why do they look like gay porn stars

5'9 isn't short in real life. try being 5'6 in scandinavia

because you're not short. You're not tall enough for it to be attractive but you're definitely not short. Guys 5'5" and below are at a pretty hefty disadvantage, and there really isn't any arguing against that.

I'm 5'7" and I guarantee that I've been written off because of my height alone at least a few times.

because a liberal cuck world of media has led you to believe faggots often look like this.

>protip: they dont.

I'm not going to pretend tall people don't get an unfair advantage in life, but a lot of that gets stripped away when you account for the fact that good genes/parents like to cluster together. Hence why wealth, height, penis length, etc. are all correlated.

>I'm not going to pretend tall people don't get an unfair advantage in life, but I'll mention more unfair advantages they get in life

le current year meme

5'8 grill and my fiancé is 5'10, fit, handsome, successful in his career, very charismatic and comfortable with himself. I'm not sure he's even ever referenced height other than to tell me to wear heels or flats whenever I first asked him, that either are fine. I'm happy, no complaints.

im 5'6" in corporate america

oh well. i mean, what am I gonna do about it?

who cares, life is short; pun intended

we'll all be on our deathbed before we know it, wondering where all the time went and the universe will be completely indifferent to our having existed.
