PATREON EXCLUSIVE - How To Get Over The Disadvantage Of Being Short

JAJAJA I swear that i practice the three sports that you said and i´m short guy. I´m 168 cm.

The shorter the woman, the taller the man she wants to be. And vice versa: the taller she is, the less bothered she is about a man's height(because she knows her options narrow the taller she is, and she has a complex about that too). That being said, only short women complained about my height(5'8 - 5'9). Average women occasionally complained. And tall women, almost never (or, at least, they didn't voice that out - which still makes them less entitled than the short ones). That being said, I prefer women of similar height or slightly taller than me. The short ones are a turn off(not necessarily because of their height but because of their entitlement). Next time, if she complains about height, tell her that you prefer taller women anyway :)) Also, please note that shorter guys tend to have decently sized dicks or bigger than average, or bigger than those of tall many guys. I've been paying attention to this aspect and what women thought of mine. So, that should help with your self esteem a bit.

I never even knew that women would or could reject a man, based on height, and went through life not knowing that I had a 'disadvantage'.... When I finally met a woman who actually did have such a mind set, I admit it stunned me. I walked away from her when she made it clear that my being ONLY 8 inches taller than her, was a problem..... And I have by fluke found out that the only man she has had in her life for years ..... is slightly 'shorter' than I am. Less financially well off than I am, etc. I got lucky. And still don't care about my height.

Some of us guys actually prefer taller women. I have been fairly unsuccessful in dating, but because of my preference for taller women I have learned a few things that make it easier to hit on them. First rule: never mention their height when you meet them, not until you know them well. Second, taller does not mean more difficult. I am 5'8. Women that are between 5'9 to 6'0 are less receptive to talking to me because they are tall, but they can easily find men their own height. When she is over 6ft it becomes easier to hit on her the taller she is because she has fewer options, and a lot of men will start becoming put off by her height. If you are already dating her tell her you don't mind if she wear heels, and actually be confident around her.

Remember, boys: So many men don’t even approach. Your willingness to get rejected already puts you in the top 10%. Take your chances and, as Al said, you only need one. I’m 5’6” and have had minimal trouble attracting women once I sorted myself out. Yes, its harder to get them to approach you, but there is a lot you can do to polish up what you have

Alexander if you want your son not to be short, you don't have to pray! Just sign him up for one of these sports: basketball, volleyball or swimming! Problem solved!

The reason they were disappointed is because the vast majority of women do not actually know what a measurement is. They couldn't estimate your height based on the numeric value. Therefore your height in numeric means nothing to them until they actually see you in person. Don't believe me just ask a woman to give you a measurement estimation of an object or person. In Metres Millimetres Feet or Inches 9 out of 10 will just look baffled.

Take your time, build your value your turn will come. In the meantime don't give up. In the meantime get in the gym get jacked that makes up a lot for a lack of height a lot I promise. I am around 175 cm and would often get overlooked until a woman actually got to know me. But the moment I started adding lean muscle all that changed.

I tend to agree, but it stretches beyond just being short too. Granted its something you've been given and theres nothing you can do to change that. But in my experience there are plenty of tall dudes that are just born with low IQs and theres nothing they can do about it, anti-social behaviour, no sense of humour etc. You can work on these things, but at the end of the day, I feel like everyone has their own problems - being short is just more noticeable than being dumb.. On the flip side there could be things you're gifted with too. Such as intelligence, charisma, music/art etc. that other people werent born with

This applies not just to the trait of "shortness" but any other equivalent trait or feature that you could be insecure about.

I'm a short guy. I never really thought much about it until I started dating again in my 30s, back before dating apps and the internet. Anyway, I joined a dating club, and when I began to look at the profiles for women, I was startled by how many of them listed a minimum height requirement for men to ask them on a date. Usually, their minimum was 5' 10 (about 178 cm). On my profile, I never fudged my height. It was right there for women to see if they looked. Still, it was not an uncommon occurrence for me to show up for a date only to see that she was surprised and disappointed that I was short. I still had a lot of good dates with women who weren't bothered by my height, but I'm very sure I would have had more dates if I had been average height or taller.

a large majority of men storming the beaches of normandy or fighting in the pacific theater in WW2 were short compared to today's standards.

a permanent solution to overcome short guy problems is to simply move overseas or perhaps put your self in another dating market where your height becomes automatically average or even above the average threshold, for example a 5'4 guy (162cm) would be average male height in some parts of the world notably in south east asia, if you are 5'7 (170cm) it's the equivalent of being 6 foot back in the west in those many countries where the male national average is 5'4 (162 cm). The majority of women in asia for example are between 4'10 (149 cm) - 5'3 (160 cm) as you can see the the dating pool and supply of women shorter than you would be huge/infinite compared to back in your own country where it is only just a small portion (being that most western women are going to be 165 cm 5'5 on average). Furthermore 5'7 (170cm) is average in japan and surprisingly spain for some strange reason considering it is a western nation with a caucasian population. In my own personal experience most of my 5'7 male family members from south america (on my mother's side) and people that i befriended while over there are treated like normal guys and have no difficulties with women at all simply because they aren't considered short over there. I know it may sound silly or even unpractical to move or go half way across the world but your opportunities would drastically improve overnight and you would avoid the hardship and disadvantages of being short (that alexander expressed in the video) and avoid even having to make up for it. Alexander, you are completely average in australia and america however other sources state that the average male height in australia is now 5'10 (179cm) and for new zealand it's 5'9 and a half (177cm). 5'9 seems to be straying away from average now as the new generations are getting taller. In WW2 out of 6 million inductees into the u.s army, the average height was 5'8 (172 cm) and 65 kg (144 pounds) the average in modern times has now increased to 5'10 - 5'11. https://amp.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/62eva0/were_infantrymen_smaller_and_less_muscular_in/&ved=2ahUKEwjR7MnhgqXrAhWY7HMBHUaLDfgQFjAMegQIDBAB&usg=AOvVaw0QEipxdCQvqGygFoIVlkQ-&cshid=1597763014209

As a short, quite a young guy (23 years old, 172 cm) who has shaved his head entirely (because I'm balding) it's hard to speak about self-esteem and/or confidence. I mean, I'm not depressed or anything, but you know, that you aren't that hot as other people and you just have to carry on. Telling, that you need to improve in other areas of life to "catch up" is sure a healthy and logical tip, but at such age it's difficult. You're just too young to have a developed career, due to education you can't quite allow yourself to earn a lot of money, travel, and do other things, that makes you more worthy. I'm not writing this as an excuse, but this is a reality some guys like me have to face. For now, besides looks, we don't have that much to offer for women. I'm focusing for almost 2 years now on building financial independence. Okay, it sounds impressive, but before I reach this goal (if I ever will), I need to wait a few more years yet. Some ideas fail, some things take a lot of work to do. But today, I still have to live with parents and I still don't have any independent stream of income. Even wanting to be a high-quality man isn't that attractive to women as actually being one. Like in that saying "women wait on the finish line to pick a winner". A girl my age will date someone, who's already attractive than someone, who isn't (and it doesn't matter, if he has potential or not). It's natural :P
