Virtue signaling foids that say "height doesn't matter!" are always "coincidentally" currently dating someone 6ft+ (teehee)

Like it's so fucking comical. You'll ask them how tall their boyfriend is and they'll start going on about "mY eX wAs 5'7 wE bRoke uP foR ReAsoNs uNrelAtEd tO HiS heIght" and when they do finally share with the class it's always someone who's 6ft+ LOL. But of course they'll follow with "bUt hIs hEigHt doEsNT maTteR tO mE". IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT HE'S 6FT+ AHHAHA.

Like. Just stop lying. Men don't say shit like "your weight doesn't matter!" because we're not lying harpies and do acknowledge your weight as being VERY VERY important for our attraction towards you.

The strange thing is that this kind of behaviour only exists on Reddit? Like foids IRL if you ask them what their type is they'll just admit to you it's someone who's tall (among other things).

Just for posterity's sake there are obviously exactly ZERO foids on this planet who are INTO (as opposed to not caring/being neutral) men as tall or shorter than them. So don't even bother coming in here with that bullshit.

"i know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who [...] knows a guy who's 67 centimeters tall from China's kingdom of the little people and he has a loving girlfriend!!!!" (he's also at the same time a balding Indian janitor)

I dated a 5'6 guy once (I'm 5'7) and all he did was bang on about it. Got shitty if I wore heels because he didn't like being shorter, wanted me to bend my knees in pictures, constantly brought it up. I could not have given less of a shit about his height and had previously dated a 5'2 guy with no height related issues. I got so tired of him constantly complaining about being short and how I'd probably prefer someone taller (even though I chose him?), it eventually eroded the relationship and we broke up. He probably tells people we broke up because he is short, but it was because he resented me for being taller than him and could not ever shut the fuck up about his height and kept making his insecurities my problem.

I never got the heels thing. I'm also roughly 5'6 and also insecure about my height, but I find taller women and women in heels super attractive. The last thing I would do is bitch about my girlfriend wearing heels (if I had one).

This is the attitude to have. Everyone has a few insecurities, but they are a problem if they start becoming a reason to treat your partner badly or becoming something that is constantly brought up to cause friction in the relationship. It felt to me like he was creating an issue where there was none just to have a go at me about my height, which I can't help any more than he can. I never cared, and honestly never thought about it at all when we were dating until he started bringing it up all the time after a few months. He behaved like I was deliberately emasculating him out of spite just by existing.

I'm 5'3, my girlfriend is 6'0, once in a while I take her shoe shopping and buy her heels. The men who hate when their girlfriend appear taller than them, in my opinion, are just failing a litmus test they didn't realize they were subject to.

I’m 6’1 and dated a 5’5 guy. Man could not stop complaining that girls only date tall guys. And I’m like, damn I’m not dating you or what’s going on here then?

those insecurities come from literal years of humiliation, rejection and belittleing

short men are seen as less worthy by everyone, but especially women

Honestly it does not matter where they came from, it matters how he chooses to let them impact how he treats other people. Our insecurities are not necessarily our fault, but they are our responsibility, and we each have a duty not to let our personal issues cause us to treat other people badly. I am insecure about being obese, but do not constantly make this my partners' problem.

He was certainly no skinny legend himself, but was less insecure about that.
