Day 2 of reminding the fediverse there are women who prefer shorter guys (source: am one of them). If y'all don't want them I'll take them. I'll take them all.
I'm married to a man the same height as me. Absolutely zero regrets. He's kind and funny, and my favorite person.
The only thing I'm slightly jealous of is that I might not be able to wear my husband's ribcage as armor should I outlive him the way that women with taller husband's can. But that's life! I love my husband more than I desire widow armor.
I have no idea where your lore is from, but I like it! As a taller and bigger guy, I see no better way to go out than protecting my love my partner from hordes of barbarians. Let my ribs be impenetrable armor and my femur be an armor splitting bludgeon for her berserker rage. Tales will be told and songs will be sung, and ….. crap, she’s now my ex. Forget it, I’ll fertilize a tree when the time comes
Height and attractiveness have nothing to do with each other for me, but I do wish someone would find a way to make my wife taller so I wouldn't have to keep getting things off of the top shelves in the cabinets for her.
Unless you have a passion for cramped supercars or exceed the height of most door frames… why? The ability to reach the top shelf and things placed at height is just so invaluable. And provided you take care of them, knees and hips still allow you to rummage through things on the down low.
Now, if you’re so tall that you routinely crack your forehead on door frames… yeah. I could see why. But then the question becomes, what is affecting your coordination such that it prevents you from earning millions by throwing an orange ball through a netted hoop?
Not OP but the first three things I already experienced today were: Knee and backpain, standing out in a crowd, needing to slightly bend down vor everything in most standard kitchens.
Not for me, though, just interested. I'm 6'2" and it's about perfect I think, probably wouldn't swap it for any other height. I'm tall enough to reach the top shelves of pretty much everything, hit the cancel button on our smoke alarm, see over people at gigs and things, but not so tall that I have problems with fitting into things too often.
I understand, why not just use stilts or shoes with large soles? You would be proportionally off, wouldn't it be weird to be 6 foot tall and have short arms?
Cartoon violence inflicted on a rude person displayed in a comic strip has somehow started a war about "incels" and "toxic masculinity"; meanwhile, I've never watched Sesame Street and I was over here thinking Big Bird was a girl.
Lengthening your legs, which will screw you up in a number of ways, is the most cucked thing you can do. Imagine letting the opinions of people online guide your behavior in such a drastic way.
It is toxic to have the response the woman depicted in said comic had over a physical feature that someone has no control over. What genders are involved don't actually matter.
Mate/partner selection based on physical characteristics is seen all through nature, why would humans be any different? And why would you label that as toxic?
